About this role
THE OPPORTUNITY
Substrate is building the molecular characterisation cascade that turns purified protein into trustworthy, quality-controlled, biophysically characterised data at scale, and you will build it from the first manual run. This is the work downstream of protein production and upstream of functional assays: quality control, binding, stability, and developability, developed by hand and engineered to move onto automation.
The data this cascade produces is the product. Substrate is the critical infrastructure layer between AI and biology, and biological foundation models can predict but cannot experiment; the high-quality, large-scale data they need does not exist yet. Your work at the bench is what brings it into existence.
