Work on full-stack product engineering to build the orchestration layer for AI-driven lab automation software.

Responsibilities

  • You'll work across LabOS — our internal software platform — building the orchestration layer that coordinates everything from experiment scheduling to execution to data capture and results processing. This is full-stack product engineering at the intersection of software and physical-world biology.
  • Day-to-day, that can mean things like:
  • Creating interfaces and APIs that give scientists and AI agents visibility into what's happening in the lab in real time
  • Building custom AI agents and tooling that automate decisions across the experiment lifecycle, from protocol design to troubleshooting failed results
  • Turning proprietary hardware into API-controllable devices that agents and software can operate programmatically
  • Designing scheduling systems that coordinate dozens of lab instruments with complex dependency chains
  • You'll own large areas of the product. We're a small team where individual engineers have large impact on what gets built and how.

Requirements

  • Full-stack production experience. We use TypeScript, React, Node, Postgres — but what matters is you can work across the stack.
  • Product instinct. You've shipped, watched users, iterated, and shipped again.
  • Comfortable in ambiguity. You start from a goal, not a spec. You scope problems down, decide what to build and what to skip, and write your own plan when none exists.
  • Builds with AI. You use AI tools heavily, but you have enough experience without them to know what good looks like.
  • Curious about biology. No background required, but running real experiments in the physical world should excite you.

Other

  • 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.
  • We are reviewing applicants on a rolling basis.
