Job Description
Job Title: Robotics Software Engineer
Compensation: $200300k significant equity (TBD)
Location: Hybrid 3 days/week in South San Francisco
Who Are We
Were a fastmoving biotech startup thats built for speed. Our automation tools power some of the fastest DNA sequencing in the world used daily by everyone from Nobel laureates to spy DIY biohackers. With a small but mighty team weve gone from zero to processing 13000 samples a day across 50 labs without slowing down. If you like ambitious missions low bureaucracy and a seriously talented team youre in the right place.
Whats in It for You
-
Massive Impact: Youll directly contribute to lifesaving research from novel drug development to climate tech.
-
Ownership & Autonomy: Endtoend ownership of complex projects no PMs no handholding just you some code and a whole lot of robots.
-
Cool Tech: Build and deploy software for robotic systems using Python Docker Raspberry Pi and your choice of CAD flavor.
-
Career Growth: Work with some of the smartest minds in biotech and scale your impact as we double the team.
-
Benefits: 20 PTO days 10 paid holidays full medical/dental/vision 401(k) match and a frontrow seat to the future of biotech.
What Will You Do
-
Build automation systems that turn wet lab chaos into robotic precision.
-
Write Python to control liquid handling robots like Opentrons OT2 (bonus points if youve hacked one).
-
Design and prototype robotic components using CAD 3D printing.
-
Work directly with scientists to translate messy protocols into slick scalable systems.
-
Deploy your code into the wild and maintain a growing fleet of semisentient lab assistants.
-
Monitor debug and improve performance in a live production environment.
-
Collaborate with a tightknit R&D team of 8 engineers.
-
Help us double our automation capabilities again.
What Will You Need
MustHave Experience:
-
3 years Python (Flask/Django a plus) Linux Docker.
-
1 years automating wet lab procedures with liquid handling systems (Opentrons strongly preferred).
-
Demonstrated wet lab experience (college experience acceptable).
-
Raspberry Pi or other embedded system experience.
-
CAD modeling 3D printing (Fusion 360 ideal).
-
Built systems used in a production environment lab automation IoT etc.
-
Endtoend project ownership without relying on PMs or tech leads.
-
A hacker mindset Arduino projects Raspberry Pi mods robot arms that make espresso you get the idea.
NicetoHaves:
-
Ansible
-
Simple computer vision (OpenCV)
-
Interest in biotech DNA sequencing or synthetic biology
-
Side projects combining code hardware and a bit of madness
MustNOTHaves:
-
Serial job hopping
-
Only outofthebox Opentrons workflows (we want builders not buttonpushers)
Final Bits
-
Role is hybrid: 3 days/week in South San Francisco.
- If youve ever hacked a 3D printer to pipette enzymes this role was made for you.
