From Clear Labs's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Clear Labs builds an end-to-end, FDA-cleared next-generation sequencing (NGS) diagnostics platform. Our system, Clear Dx, combines automated sample-to-report workflows with an assay menu spanning oncology and infectious disease testing. We're a hands-on team building hardware, software, and wet-lab science together, and we're looking for senior scientists who want to own real customer and partner relationships, not just advise on them.
Position Summary
We're hiring a Senior Oncology Scientist to serve as Clear Labs' internal oncology subject matter expert — advising our assay development, automation, and systems integration teams on oncology biology, genomics, and clinical relevance as we build out our oncology assay menu. This is primarily an internal scientific role: shaping internal decisions on assay design and clinical relevance comes first, with select customer, partner, and conference-facing science as a secondary part of the role.
Reports to: COO & Chief Scientific Officer
Location: San Carlos, CA
Travel: Occasional travel required.
Primary Responsibilities
Serve as the internal oncology subject matter expert, advising Assay Development, Automation, and Systems Integration on oncology biology, genomics, and clinical relevance as new panels and workflows are developed.
Stay current on oncology genomics literature, competitive assays, and clinical guidelines, and translate that knowledge into internal scientific recommendations.
Provide scientific input on assay design, panel content, and evidentiary requirements for oncology offerings (e.g., companion diagnostics, comprehensive genomic profiling, MRD).
Serve as an internal bridge between R&D/assay science and other functions, helping translate technical work into language that lands with clinical, commercial, and partner audiences.
Support customers and partner reference laboratories with oncology assay application science and protocol troubleshooting as needed (secondary responsibility).
Represent Clear Labs' oncology science with key opinion leaders and at a select set of key conferences, and provide scientific input during partner evaluations (secondary responsibility).
