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 Senior Scientist, AI & Data Infrastructure, to join our small but mighty team. This is an AI-native science role: you'll own the computational backbone of Kingdom's research (the microbial genomics and AI-compatible data infrastructure that every wet-lab program depends on) and ship custom and integrated LLM tooling to automate and accelerate our work. We want a PhD-level computational biologist (or related area) who applies rigorous scientific judgment to genomic analysis, biobank strategy, and statistical methods, and is equally excited to build the systems that let everyone move faster. Fundamentally, this is a science role, with success measured by the integrity of our data, the insights our data infrastructure unlocks, and the AI tooling we deploy across our scientific platform. This is a full-time, in-person role at our headquarters in Brooklyn, NY. 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 closely with our science team &
