The He lab is in the Molecular and Cell Biology department at UC-Berkeley, which encompasses a breadth of disciplines spanning all levels of organization and encompassing diverse organisms. The breath of training, combined with the unique location of Berkeley in the center of biomedical research, offer a nurturing environment for the next-generation scientist to launch on a successful career in biomedical research in academia and industry. The Principal Investigator, Dr. Lin He, was awarded the MacArthur Fellowship (the genius award), the Searle Scholar, a HHMI Faculty Scholar, and is currently a Thomas and Stacey Siebel distinguished chair professor at UC-Berkeley, and a biohub investigator with the Chan-Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI).

The developmental and physiological complexity of a given organism is not governed by the sheer number of protein-coding genes. In mammals, the numerous functional non-coding elements greatly expand gene regulatory modality and diversify functional reservoir. Using human genetics/genomics, mouse genetics/genomics, cell and molecular biology approaches, the He lab at UC-Berkeley has identified a variety of functional non-coding elements, including transposons and non-coding RNAs. Not only do non-coding elements offer important developmental/physiological functions, they also provide us with a unique angle to discover new biological/cellular processes in development and disease. Combining sophisticated genome engineering and innovative live cell imaging, we have pioneered in vivo studies to elucidate the new cellular functions and molecular mechanisms in development and aging. The discoveries of the He lab have been well recognized by publications in prestigious journals, including Nature, Science and Cell. Currently, there are postdoc openings in two projects.

Transposons in mammalian preimplantation development ~40% of mammalian genome originates from transposons, whose abundance greatly exceeds that of protein genes. While historically viewed as degenerated "parasitic" DNAs, transposons yield numerous functional elements for the host genome. These sequences resulted from ancient invasion confer new mechanisms of gene regulation, generate Neogene/ncRNA functions, and provide raw material for genome innovation. Mammalian preimplantation embryos constitute one of the best systems to study transposon-host interactions, as ~20% of their transcriptome results from transposon induction. We aim to characterize the role of specific transposons in preimplantation embryos.

Transposons in aging and disease While specific transposons are integral components of host biology, most mammalian transposons are potentially detrimental to the host genomes, thus inactivated via degenerative mutations and/or transcriptional/post-transcriptional silencing. Interestingly, aberrant transposon induction has been observed in a variety of pathological conditions, including aging, cancer and infection. We aim to investigate the mechanisms underlying transposon dysregulation during reproductive aging and cancer, and to elucidate the effects of transposon-host interactions that accelerate aging and promote cancer.

Postdoc responsibilities:

1) The postdoc will work with the PI to develop a project in one of the two research directions, to comprehensively read literature, to establish appropriate experimental systems, to learn important technologies, and to execute experiments to advance the project and perform data analyses.

2) The postdoc will meet with the PI on a weekly basis to discuss results, to development experimental plans.

2) The postdoc will work with junior lab members to mentor them on specific experimental techniques .

3) The postdoc will contribute to lab duties, which is evenly distributed among all lab members.

Lab:

PhD (or equivalent international degree) or enrolled in a PhD degree program (or equivalent international degree)

Team & Mission

The Privacy & Conversion Data team is responsible for how the company safely and compliantly uses conversion data to power monetization. We build and operate the core privacy infrastructure behind ads reporting and optimization, including controlled data environments, finegrained access controls, centralized privacy rules enforcement, and deidentification pipelines for conversion data. Our mission is to make conversion data privacypreserving by default-centralized, deidentified, auditable, and easy for teams to use, while maintaining high utility for advertisers and staying ahead of an evolving global regulatory landscape.

Role Summary

We're seeking a Staff Engineer to lead the architecture and technical direction for the conversion data privacy platform, spanning both core Conversion Data systems and deidentification for ads reporting. You'll own the endtoend design and evolution of privacycritical pipelines and services, partner closely with Product, Data Science, Legal, and infrastructure teams, and set the technical bar for how we use conversion data safely at scale.

What you'll do:

• 
  
• Lead the technical strategy and architecture for conversion data privacy across access controls, deidentification, deletion, and privacy rules enforcement, driving toward a centralized, deidentifiedbydefault, automated privacy platform for monetization.
  
• Design and evolve core privacy infrastructure including controlled environments for sensitive data, finegrained authorization and policy enforcement, and a central policy repository that consistently governs access across major data platforms and query engines.
  
• Own deidentification pipelines for ads reporting endtoend-from separating sensitive and nonsensitive data, applying deidentification techniques and transformations, and generating privacypreserving datasets, to validating data utility and feeding reporting and analytics surfaces.
  
• Build and improve privacy frameworks and tooling (for both online and offline workflows) that make safe, compliant conversion data usage simple and selfservice for downstream teams, reducing onboarding friction for new datasets, restrictions, and use cases.
  
• Drive operational excellence and compliance by defining SLAs, building robust monitoring and alerting (e.g., deidentification quality, optout metrics, data leakages), leading incident response, and developing performant deletion and leakagehandling workflows that meet regulatory and audit requirements.
  
• Partner crossfunctionally with ads, data, product, legal, and infrastructure stakeholders to translate legal/privacy requirements into technical designs, make clear tradeoffs between privacy and utility, and drive alignment on roadmaps, launches, and policy changes that impact advertisers and users.
  
• Mentor and uplevel engineers across multiple teams, lead critical design and code reviews in privacysensitive areas, and establish best practices and documentation for privacybydesign, deidentification, and largescale data systems.
  

What we're looking for:

• 
  
• BS+ in Computer Science (or related field) or equivalent practical experience.
  
• 8+ years of professional software engineering experience, with a focus on largescale data systems or distributed systems.
  
• Strong proficiency building and operating data pipelines and services using Java/Scala/Kotlin or Python, plus SQL; experience with modern big data ecosystems is a plus.
  
• Experience designing secure, reliable systems and APIs, with solid grounding in data modeling, access control, and performance optimization.
  
• Meaningful experience in at least one of: privacypreserving data systems (e.g., deidentification, kanonymity), ads measurement/attribution, or largescale analytics/experimentation platforms.
  
• Proven ability to drive crossteam technical initiatives from design through rollout, working closely with product, data science, and nonengineering partners (e.g., Legal, Compliance).
  
• Strong communication and leadership skills, with a track record of mentoring engineers, raising engineering standards, and making sound decisions in ambiguous, highimpact problem spaces.
  

In-Office Requirement Statement:
