Benchling
Biotechnology is rewriting life as we know it, from the medicines we take, to the crops we grow, the materials we wear, and the household goods that we rely on every day. But moving at the new speed of science requires better technology.
Benchling’s mission is to unlock the power of biotechnology. The world’s most innovative biotech companies use Benchling’s R&D Cloud to power the development of breakthrough products and accelerate time to milestone and market.
Come help us bring modern software to modern science.
Role Overview The Product Design team at Benchling is committed to building user experiences that support the scientists who are solving the world’s most important problems. Our work has a direct impact on making scientific workflows more efficient while improving the quality of that research—ultimately helping to drive the biotech revolution. We’re looking for an experienced Product Designer to help build Benchling’s small molecule solution, enabling scientists to discover and develop small molecules and hybrid modalities with the same power and collaboration Benchling brings to biologics. You will own the strategy, roadmap, and execution for this critical product area, working cross-functionally with scientists, engineers, designers, and GTM teams to bring new capabilities to life.

Experience contributing to a design system for complex software products
