• Tetsuwan Scientific is an SF-based, early-stage company working on combining the abilities of artificial intelligence with the physical agency of laboratory robotics to develop the future of infrastructure scientific research. Read more about our work here or here.
• Tetsuwan is a melting pot of highly-driven engineers from wildly different backgrounds. We've worked on engineering synthetic organisms and electric race cars at Caltech, worked on generalized cooking robots, and have developed lab automation systems at academic and industry labs. What brings us together is the belief that working towards autonomous systems for scientific discovery is the most important thing we could possibly do, and that now is the time to do so.
• Tetsuwan has raised a $2.7Moversubscribed round to support a technical timeline that has already seen its first deployment (to a rare disease gene therapeutics lab) and will see several more within the next year.

About The Role:

You will work alongside a small team to build, test, break, and rebuild a product that allows scientists to interface seamlessly with lab robots. You will help onthefront and the back end to deliver the best user experience. You will have to learn a lot quickly, fail a lot, and succeed a lot. You will go out in the field and see how customers interact with your product in their labs, and you will watch the output of your code running on robots and doing cutting-edge science. And most importantly, you will see your work massively contribute to the efforts of a team working at the forefront of the autonomous discovery space.

Required:

• Be in-person, for a full-time role in San Francisco, California
• Have a high-sense of autonomy and ability to rapidly iterate and learn
• Be proficient in both Python and Typescript

Nice to Have:

• The following skills, from most important to least important: React, Next, Docker, GCP, CI/CD pipelines
• 3+ years of experience
• Previously worked at a start-up
• An interest in the life sciences and robotics.

Why Join Us:

• True ownership. You will participate in making key technical decisions and shape the product's future.
• Work on the world's most important problem. Automation infrastructure for science will fundamentally change discovery, and consequently, the world. In the short-term, your work will help those at the front lines of the important battles, like the one against rare disease. In the long-term, it will reshape how humanity approaches scientific discovery. This is the best possible opportunity and time to get involved with autonomous science- at a start-up where you will have significant skin at the game, working at the frontier of a new field.

Salary and benefits:

• 130k-150k annual salary
• generous equity package
• comprehensive health insurance plans and other company benefits

If you love the idea of high agency, interesting problems, and shipping one of the world's most impactful products from the ground up, we'd love to talk to you!
