Sequencing is building the interface between humanity and its DNA.

Using clinical-grade whole genome sequencing, AI, and a rapidly expanding ecosystem of genomic applications, we help people better understand themselves, their health, and their future through their DNA.

The human genome is one of the most valuable and underutilized resources in the world. Our mission is to transform the human genome into a lifelong source of personalized guidance and build the trusted home for every genome on Earth.

As the world’s largest direct-to-consumer whole genome sequencing platform, Sequencing is helping define the future of AI-powered personalized health.

We’re a profitable, venture-backed, fully remote company building category-defining products that help people better understand themselves through their DNA.

The Position

At Sequencing, you'll build and operate the evaluation and validation infrastructure that keeps our AI systems correct, reliable, and regression-protected. This is an execution-focused role: you'll design, implement, and maintain the benchmarking systems that continuously test AI outputs against curated genomic datasets, partnering closely with the AI Bioinformatics Engineering Lead to turn interpretation standards into measurable, operational systems. You are detail-oriented, have a systems-thinking mindset and you notice the one VCF out of ten thousand that doesn't look right

The Impact

  • Build and run automated evaluation pipelines for AI outputs end-to-end.
  • Expand regression datasets that cover variant normalization, transcript ambiguity, and disease-level mapping.
  • Execute large-scale validation runs across curated VCF datasets, track performance over time, and surface accuracy regressions the moment they appear.
  • Grow a structured question bank using and related datasets, encoding the edge cases that matter most.
  • Ship automated regression tests for every AI release and build dashboards that make variant-level and case-level accuracy visible to the whole team.
  • Partner with engineering to wire validation directly into CI/CD, and diagnose and document failure modes as they emerge.

Dominant and Recessive Traits

  • Degree in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Genetics, or a related field.
  • Deep, hands-on experience with VCFs and real-world genomic datasets.
  • Fluency with ClinVar, dbSNP, HGVS standards, and transcript mapping.
  • A track record building evaluation frameworks or testing pipelines, Langfuse or similar.
  • Experience evaluating LLM-based systems and standing up automated QA at scale.

Benefits Overview
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance coverage
  • 401(k) with company matching
  • Paid time off (PTO)
  • Paid volunteer time off
  • Fully remote work with home office stipend
  • Parental bonding leave
  • Clinical-grade whole genome sequencing for you and your family (private and confidential)

Join Sequencing
  • Redefine how people understand themselves through their DNA
  • Build category-defining products alongside scientists, engineers, and innovators
  • Contribute to technology that will improve and extend millions of lives
  • Shape one of the most important emerging categories in AI and healthcare

What you need to know about the Seattle Tech Scene

Home to tech titans like Microsoft and Amazon, Seattle punches far above its weight in innovation. But its surrounding mountains, sprinkled with world-famous hiking trails and climbing routes, make the city a destination for outdoorsy types as well. Established as a logging town before shifting to shipbuilding and logistics, the Emerald City is now known for its contributions to aerospace, software, biotech and cloud computing. And its status as a thriving tech ecosystem is attracting out-of-town companies looking to establish new tech and engineering hubs.

Key Facts About Seattle Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 287,000; 13% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Amazon, Microsoft, Meta, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, cloud computing, software, biotechnology, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $3.1 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Madrona, Fuse, Tola, Maveron
  • Research Centers and Universities: University of Washington, Seattle University, Seattle Pacific University, Allen Institute for Brain Science, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Seattle Children’s Research Institute
