Run the experiments that turn a novel electromagnetic device into real biological evidence. If you enjoy owning a cell-based experimental system, breaking assays until they tell the truth, and generating the data that drives decisions, you will thrive in our well-funded startup.
This is not a “run the protocol” jobWe are building a wireless electroporation platform for intracellular delivery.
Our engineers design the electromagnetic systems. Our Principal Scientist defines the biological validation strategy and what must be proven.
Your role is to operate and steadily improve the experimental system that produces the biological evidence.
This is a deeply hands-on laboratory role. Most of your time will be spent running experiments, maintaining cell systems, improving assays, and producing clear data that engineers and scientists can rely on.
You will not inherit a polished experimental machine.
You will help build it.
If you prefer highly scripted protocols and narrow task boundaries, this role will likely feel uncomfortable.
If you enjoy owning an experimental system and improving it until the data becomes clear and reproducible, you will likely thrive here.
What your days might actually look likeYou run in vitro experiments in mammalian cell systems — in practice, not just on paper.
These experiments test how our device interacts with living cells and how experimental parameters influence biological outcomes.
You will use flow cytometry, microscopy, and plate-based assays to interpret biological responses.
Typical work includes:
- Checking cell morphology before starting experiments
- Running delivery or transfection studies
- Preparing DNA and plating cells deliberately
- Adjusting timing or densities based on how cells behave in practice
Later in the week you may be:
- Reviewing gating strategies at the flow cytometer
- Interpreting fluorescence signals under the microscope
- Structuring experimental outputs so engineers can interpret results
- Repeating experiments when signals appear suspiciously clean
Over time your work improves the system: cleaner assays, faster experimental cycles, and clearer biological signals.
The reality of the workYou will:
- Run and troubleshoot in vitro mammalian cell experiments
- Maintain mammalian cell culture systems
- Perform molecular biology workflows (DNA/RNA handling, plasmid preparation, transfection)
- Operate and interpret flow cytometry experiments
- Use microscopy and plate assays to quantify biological outcomes
- Distinguish biological signal from experimental artifact
- Document experiments clearly and structure datasets for interpretation
- Improve experimental protocols and laboratory workflows
You will work closely with engineers and with our Principal Scientist, who defines the biological questions, validation framework, and interpretation criteria.
Your role is to ensure experiments run reliably and produce clear data that guides technical development.
What makes someone strong in this seatWe care less about specific degrees and more about ownership of experimental work.
You will likely thrive in this role if you:
- Enjoy spending most of your time in the laboratory
- Have strong hands-on experience with mammalian cell culture
- Are comfortable running and interpreting flow cytometry experiments
- Have experience with molecular biology workflows (DNA/RNA handling, plasmids, transfection)
- Have independently run experimental systems before
- Notice inconsistencies others overlook
- Care deeply about controls, reproducibility, and experimental clarity
- Stay steady when experiments fail and methodically improve them
Curiosity about how physical technologies interact with biological systems is a strong advantage.
Prior experience with electromagnetics is not required.
After 3 months here- The cell lab runs reliably and experimental routines are established
- Core assays produce consistent, interpretable results
- Experimental documentation supports clear interpretation
- Experimental cycles generate actionable input for engineering
After 6 months here- Core assays are cleaner and more reproducible
- Experimental cycles run faster and produce clearer data
- Engineering decisions increasingly rely on results from the lab
- The biological validation system operates with structure and consistency
EnvironmentWe are a small team of engineers, scientists, and builders working closely together.
Decisions happen through discussion and evidence rather than layers of management.
We believe good science requires a sustainable pace. Flexibility and work/life balance are built into how we operate. At the same time, we work with urgency and expect a high level of ownership, reliability, and scientific rigor from each other. The workload can be demanding, and everyone contributes meaningfully to moving the work forward.
The role is based at the BioInnovation Institute in Nørrebro, Copenhagen.
