Full Job Description
OVERVIEW At Kingdom, we’ve pioneered Superculture® ingredients: an entirely new class of clinically-validated postbiotics that target the root causes of unmet pet health needs. We’re actively selling Superculture® Pet Oral and Superculture® Pet Immune to pet food and supplement brands, and will be launching our first Superculture ingredient for humans later this year. We're looking for a high-performing Scientist, Clinical Development, to join our small but mighty team. This is an AI-native science role: you'll own Kingdom's pet clinical study program end-to-end, deploying custom and integrated LLM-tooling to automate and accelerate your work. We want a PhD-level scientist who can both apply rigorous judgment to study design, biomarker selection, statistical analysis, and scientific reporting, and who is excited to build AI infrastructure that lets us run more clinical trials. This is a science role, with success measured by the clinical studies we complete and the peer-reviewed publications we deliver. This is a full-time, in-person role at our headquarters in Brooklyn, NY, with occasional travel to scientific and industry conferences. We founded Kingdom in 2019 to cultivate healthier living with natural microbes, and have raised $35M+ in venture funding from top investors. Less than a year in market, our ingredients are already powering dozens of products from leading pet brands, with overwhelmingly positive customer reception. 1 out of 3 product launches using our ingredients have earned a #1 New Release on Amazon, and 9 out of 10 of our customers are launching additional products with us. Our core technical edge is our scientific platform, which spans ingredient discovery, clinical trials, and manufacturing scale-up. RESPONSIBILITIES In this role, you'll report to the Senior Scientific Director, and will work with our science team, co-founders, CRO partners, and the commercial team to: Run Kingdom's pet clinical study program end-to-end: - Design and execute
