About the role
- As our Flow Cytometry Systems Engineer, you will be Nomic's internal subject-matter expert for the commercial flow cytometers used across our operations, development, and customer deployment workflows.
- This role is similar to an internal Field Applications Scientist / Field Applications Engineer for flow cytometry.
- Your work will help ensure that our cytometry workflows are robust, reproducible, well-documented, and scalable across both internal and customer environments.
Responsibilities
- Evaluate cytometer-related sources of variability and help implement improvements to reduce failure modes in internal and customer workflows.
- Support the selection, qualification, and operationalization of cytometry platforms and accessories as Nomic scales.
- Support cytometer setup, daily operation, calibration, QC, maintenance, troubleshooting, and performance monitoring.
- Develop and maintain best practices for cytometer use, including SOPs, training materials, maintenance schedules, QC checklists, troubleshooting guides, and vendor escalation playbooks.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree or higher in Bioengineering, Mechanical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Biotechnology, or a related Engineering discipline.
- 4+ years of industry experience after university in a technical applications, field applications, field service, field deployment, or life science instrumentation role.
- Experience working with commercial flow cytometry platforms from companies such as Bio-Rad, Cytek, BD, Beckman Coulter, Sony Biotechnology, Thermo Fisher, or similar life science instrumentation companies.
- Experience working in a fast-paced startup or scaling technical operations environment.
- Ability to work cross-functionally with Operations, R&D, Product, Quality, Commercial, and customer-facing teams.
Compensation
- Help establish platform-level knowledge around cytometer fluidics, optics, lasers, detectors, compensation, gating, controls, bead-based assays, and QC metrics.
Company info
- Nomic was founded to make biology easier to measure-and to enable scientists to extend lives by making proteomics accessible, scalable, and routine. Our story began at McGill University, where our co-founders and early team developed breakthrough technology that would change the way proteins are measured.
- Today, Nomic is powered by our proprietary nELISA® platform-an end-to-end technology that delivers high-throughput, quantitative, and affordable protein data at unprecedented scale. With the launch of Omni 1000, we are making the $50 proteome a reality, breaking down barriers that have limited the field for decades. For the first time, large-scale, quantitative proteomics is accessible to any scientist, supporting everything from drug discovery and translational research to AI-enabled therapeutic development.
- Since our launch, we've partnered with leaders in pharma, biotech, and academia-including GlaxoSmithKline and the Broad Institute-and have profiled more than 500,000 samples across diverse applications. Our growth is fueled by over $60 million in investment from top-tier backers, including our recent $42 million Series B. Nomic is headquartered in Montreal, Canada with a satellite research lab in Boston, Massachusetts.
- We're building a team of world-changers-scientists, engineers, and problem-solvers who believe that accessible proteomics can help shape the future of medicine. Flow cytometry is a core part of how our platform operates, and as we scale our internal operations and customer deployments, we need deeper in-house expertise in cytometer performance, maintenance, troubleshooting, and integration. If you want your work to have real impact, we'd love to meet you.
