Job Description
Research Associate – R&D
BiomeSense is a start-up revolutionizing human gut microbiome sampling and analysis, driving discovery, and enabling the development of microbiome-based precision medicine. Our innovative approach integrates two core advancements: hardware that facilitates daily microbiome sampling as a routine exercise, and AI-driven analytics to unlock novel datasets for biomarker discovery. We are seeking a
Research Associate
to join our Research and Development team. This is a unique opportunity to apply your technical skills and collaborative spirit in a dynamic, fast-paced environment. As part of our scientific team, you will help advance our automated sample processing workflows, supporting the foundation of our sample-to-answer multi-omic platform technology.
Key Responsibilities
Laboratory Execution & Technical Support:
Execute and optimize microbiology protocols supporting nucleic acid extraction, PCR, next-generation sequencing (NGS), in a high-throughput laboratory environment. Collaborate closely with engineers, scientists, and product teams to validate and integrate novel systems for microbial DNA stabilization, extraction, and purification. Coordinate and execute the processing of large quantities of partner samples, maintaining a strong focus on accuracy and efficiency. Design and conduct experiments to retire technical risks or optimize laboratory protocols, contributing to ongoing process improvements and product innovation. Quality & Communication:
Maintain rigorous documentation practices and adhere to established quality management systems (e.g., GLP, design controls). Effectively communicate experimental results and technical observations to cross-functional project teams, supporting the rapid advancement of platform technologies. Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree + 3 years’, or Master’s degree + 2 years’ in biological sciences, bioengineering, or a related field. Hands-on experience with core microbiology techniques, nucleic acid extraction, PCR, and NGS sample preparation. Highly organized, proactive, and able to thrive in a collaborative, fast-paced setting. Strong communication skills for clear reporting and knowledge-sharing with scientific and technical stakeholders. Powered by JazzHR QFURcFMqQI
