Postdoctoral Researcher in Computational Proteomics and Machine Learning

The Protein Research Group in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the University of Southern Denmark (SDU) is recruiting a Postdoctoral Researcher in Computational Proteomics and Machine Learning, for a 2-year term (with possible 1-year extension) starting January 1, 2027. The role involves developing machine learning workflows to analyze tandem mass spectrometry datasets, building data-driven models of peptide fragmentation, curating experimental MS/MS data, and incorporating peptide-level variables (sequence, charge state, collision energy, modifications) into computational frameworks. Candidates need a PhD in computational proteomics, bioinformatics, machine learning, computer science, or a related field, strong ML/deep learning expertise, and Python proficiency; mass spectrometry proteomics experience is a plus. Salary and benefits follow Danish collective agreements.
