Company Description

YC S20 AI-native life sciences platform streamlining drug development

Job Description

You will architect a GxP execution system that unifies fragmented legacy tools like ELN and LIMS into a single, high-performance platform. By building critical primitives for automation and verifiable audit trails, you will help biotech and pharma companies reduce paperwork by 80% and accelerate life‑saving drug launches. This is a high‑ownership role for a systems‑thinking product obsessionist.

Why this role is remarkable

• Work on a mission‑critical platform used by 50+ regulated companies including Beckman Coulter and Paradromics to save lives through faster therapy development.
• Join an elite, high‑intensity YC S20 team where you have absolute ownership over entire platform areas and move from idea to production in days.
• Solve profoundly difficult systems‑design problems at the intersection of AI, complex workflow automation, and rigorous regulatory compliance (GxP).

What You Will Do

• Architect and own critical primitives including data abstractions for life sciences, complex workflow engines, and verifiable audit trails.
• Design and implement AI‑native interfaces that radically increase scientist productivity and automate 90% of quality review cycles.
• Lead weekly missions to identify the most critical platform objectives, defining solutions from first principles and shipping production‑ready TypeScript code.

The ideal candidate

• You are a pathologically product‑obsessed engineer who can balance high‑level UI aesthetics with low‑level systems architecture.
• You have a proven track record of shipping complex projects and possess strong systems‑design instincts regardless of your specific tech stack.
• You thrive in high‑standard, in‑person environments and are a self‑directed, first‑principles thinker who values impact over bureaucratic process.
