Eon Systems PBC
The Opportunity
Eon is pioneering brain emulation technology that will fundamentally transform our understanding of intelligence and consciousness. We're creating the world's first complete digital emulation of a mouse brain - mapping every neural connection and capturing the dynamic symphony of thought itself. We need an exceptional Lab and Operations Lead to build the operational foundation that enables this moonshot. This role is perfect for someone who thrives on variety while creating order from chaos. You'll be the organizing force that keeps our lab running smoothly, our hiring pipeline flowing, and our operations systematic - all while leveraging the latest AI tools to maximize efficiency What You'll Own
