Full Job Description

Adaptyv is building an automated lab thats let AI agents run biology experiments. We're entering the era of agentic science where AI models can now design novel proteins, propose hypotheses, and iterate on experimental results. But they can't run the experiments themselves - that's still a manual, months-long process. We're building the infrastructure that gives AI agents access to the physical world. We are one of the fastest growing biotech companies, trusted by leading biopharmas, frontier AI labs, and the techbio companies pushing the field forward. This is a rare chance to help advance some of the most important work happening in biotech today. Our automated lab is powered by a deep software + hardware stack: lab instruments worth millions of USD reverse-engineered into API-controllable hardware, dozens of devices orchestrated through complex workflows, full observability on everything that happens in the lab, processing pipelines for messy physical-world data, and AI systems that troubleshoot production results and accelerate assay development. We’re growing rapidly and are hiring for talented people to scale and support the massive demand for AI-driven wet lab experimentation. READ THIS FIRST This is not a "submit your CV and see what happens" posting. We open one of these because occasionally someone comes along who is so obviously exceptional that not having a role for them would be our mistake, not theirs. That person is rare. If you're applying because none of our open roles quite fit but you'd "be open to anything," this isn't for you. If you're applying because you are unusually good at something and you're certain you'd make us dramatically better, keep reading. THE BA We want to see proof of exceptional ability — not a list of responsibilities, not a polished CV. Something you built, shipped, discovered, or won that most people in your field could not have: - A project, repo, product, or company you made - Research you did or a paper you're proud of -
