Description
Cryobio is an innovative (stealth) startup developing biotechnology to protect crops from climate change and contribute to the global mission of sustainable feeding of the planet. We are a scientist-led team building a company around bold new technologies and creative solutions.
Backed by climate and deep-tech venture funds, we’re searching for scientists who can fill out our starting team, and who want to make a difference. We invite you to join us if you are passionate about addressing climate change, food security, and agricultural resilience.
We’re looking for a talented protein biochemist, biologist, or bioengineer who will work on developing and implementing techniques and protocols to produce novel proteins and to understand their role in cell-based biochemistry. You will be joining an early-stage startup with tremendous growth potential, offering opportunities for future advancement and the chance to help shape the work culture from day one
The ideal candidate is comfortable working on new problems in a shifting environment, able to self-direct, ask questions, and identify problems as they arise. Excellent attention to detail, intellectual curiosity, and the ability to work as part of a growing team are a must. This position requires an employee who can spend most of their time in the lab; beyond that, we support flexible schedules and hybrid work and always will.
