The Opportunity

We’re looking for a Software Engineer to design and implement software solutions that automate and control cloud-connected bioreactor systems, scientific  instruments, and analyzers. This role also involves developing cloud-native data and workflow applications to support cutting-edge bioprocess operations.

In this role, you’ll collaborate with a small, highly passionate team of software developers, systems engineers, data scientists, hardware specialists, and biologists — so thriving in a cross-functional environment is essential.

You will be responsible for integrating new hardware systems with the cloud, building features that span the full technology stack (from embedded control to cloud applications), and taking full ownership of your domain.

What You'll Do:

• Design, build, test, and maintain software solutions to connect data, automation, and analysis into a single, end-to-end workflow that delights scientists.
• Develop process-aware automation workflows tailored for bioprocessing that include bioreactors, various analytical equipment, instruments, and other devices.
• Quickly prototype proof-of-concept systems and evaluate technical feasibility.
• Balance technical performance, complexity, and reliability.
• Partner with scientists and process engineers to translate bio-process requirements into software and control logic.
• Participate in design reviews.
• Work on multiple projects simultaneously.
• Learn about biology, biomanufacturing, and biotechnology.

About You:

• 4+ years of software engineering experience building enterprise or cloud software in a professional setting.
• Experience using Python or TypeScript or a similar language.
• Comfortable with both frontend and backend work.
• Strong communicator interested in working in a small, collaborative, multidisciplinary team.
• Proven ability to take a thoughtful, pragmatic, and efficient approach to problem solving.
• Passionate about up-leveling yourself and those around you through curiosity, mentorship, and fostering a collaborative and inclusive team environment.

Preferred Skills:

• Proficiency in both Python and TypeScript.
• Experience using LLM tools.
• Familiarity with technologies and frameworks such as Docker, Next.JS, and GraphQL.
• Comfortable with development best practices such as continuous integration.
• Familiarity with AWS or other cloud platforms and connected edge devices.

Why Join Us?

• Hands-on experience in testing a cloud-based biotech platform.
• Work closely with a small, passionate team of experienced developers.
• Gain exposure to modern software testing practices and cloud technologies.
• Contribute to software that has a direct impact on biotech and research innovation.

Location & Schedule:

• This is a fully remote role at a fast-growing startup.

Base Salary Range:

• Culture Biosciences's compensation package includes market competitive salary, equity for all full time roles, and great benefits. Our expected salary range for this role is $127,000 - $140,000.
