The Impact You’ll Make

You will help drive the development of the world’s leading tech-enabled drug discovery platform. 

Currently, our core platform generates approximately 80 terabytes of experimental cellular biology data each week, fit for the purpose of machine learning. The automated platform can explore large areas of biology and chemistry (for example: 700,000 chemical compounds and whole-genome arrayed CRISPR gene editing experiments in multiple cell types). Join us to build the next stage:

 

  • Guide strategy for ongoing automation projects and future opportunities
  • Innovate on new digital and physical processes that help us discover new treatments
  • Multiply a cross-disciplinary team of data scientists, biologists and software & automation engineers.

The Team You’ll Join 

Recursion’s Product team translates company-level strategy into specific internal development initiatives and capabilities. We decide what to build and articulate the why, while supporting builders to own the how. We focus our decisions and are held accountable for impact over the longer-term (months to years). Join us to guide the development of the industry’s first truly industrialized drug discovery engine.

 

The Experience You’ll Need

  • 3+ Years of hands-on technical experience with high throughput screening, large scale scientific automation, and laboratory processes 
  • Experience with digital laboratory solutions such as LIMS (laboratory information management systems), quality control and data management
  • Experience in product management or similar practice including strategy, planning, prioritizing, building, implementation, and gathering feedback for complex team efforts 
  • Understand how to translate between operations, software engineering, biology, data science to identify business needs and find solutions
  • Lifelong learner with a creative, collaborative approach

 

The Benefits/Perks You’ll Enjoy

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor required by law to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We are also required to measure our progress toward having at least 7% of our workforce be individuals with disabilities. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had a disability. Because a person may become disabled at any time, we ask all of our employees to update their information at least every five years.

Identifying yourself as an individual with a disability is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer will be maintained confidentially and not be seen by selecting officials or anyone else involved in making personnel decisions. Completing the form will not negatively impact you in any way, regardless of whether you have self-identified in the past. For more information about this form or the equal employment obligations of federal contractors under Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
