Software Engineer (Backend)

At Adaptyv, our high-throughput cloud lab enables protein designers to experimentally validate their proteins with the click of a button. We're building advanced molecular biology workflows, assay automation and software infrastructure to make it easy for our users to engineer better proteins. Since the launch of our beta access in June 2024 we've been growing rapidly and are now working with the fastest-moving protein design teams in the world, across tech bio startups, major AI companies and the biggest pharmas.

We are looking for a talented and experienced Software Engineer (Backend) to join our team. You will play a

pivotal role developing robust software infrastructure for our automated protein engineering platform.

• Own the backend of our products, working alongside the product team
• Architect database designs and build data processing pipelines to handle large-scale protein characterization data from our lab
• Implement APIs to integrate laboratory instruments and robotics systems with our software stack so that we can run molecular biology workflows with minimal human intervention
• Collaborate with scientists, automation engineers, and machine learning researchers to translate biological workflows into scalable software solutions
  

• Demonstrated experience of designing and building production software
• Strong experience with Python and its ecosystem
• Comfortable with Postgres databases (we're using Supabase) and API design
