About the role

This role will focus on the production of high quality cryo-EM grids and datasets of biomolecules - including soluble proteins, membrane proteins, and nanoparticles - with a strong emphasis on high-throughput, high-quality data generation.
This is a hands-on, fast-moving role for someone who enjoys solving hard biochemical problems and seeing their work rapidly translate into new insights and capabilities.
High-Quality Data Generation: Prepare cryo-EM grids and collect data across diverse biomolecular systems-delivering high-quality datasets with speed, consistency, and rigor.

Client & Partner Support: Contribute to external programs by executing experiments and ensuring delivery of high-quality datasets aligned to project goals.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with protein science and computational teams to ensure data quality and enable tight integration with downstream modeling.
Data Integrity & Documentation: Maintain rigorous records in ELN/LIMS systems to ensure reproducibility and traceability.
Enable Next-Gen Systems: Generate high-quality data that powers AI-driven workflows and supports ongoing automation and system improvement.
Ability to rigorously document their work in an ELN and maintain an electronic LIMS.
