BioSkryb Genomics is a venture-backed startup company focused on bringing new solutions for cellular heterogeneity in both the research and clinical settings. BioSkryb’s core technology, primary template-directed amplification (PTA), enables even and unbiased coverage of the entire genome during DNA amplification and allows for unprecedented accuracy and uniformity in variant calling. We believe our technology will enable a new generation of single-cell and low-input DNA genomics applications in diverse markets like Cancer Genomics, Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT), Neurology, Microbiome Genomics and Minimal Residual Disease testing.

We are seeking a Senior Scientist, Product Development to join an exciting, fast-growing, and well-financed company to help develop BioSkryb’s core chemistry and application business in single cell technologies. This role is instrumental in helping shape and innovate these products to provide the most accurate, highest quality multiomic representation of biological states.
