Company Description
$8M YC-backed biotech startup automating protein design for frontier AI labs
Job Description
You will build the orchestration layer that allows AI agents to run real biology experiments in automated labs.

- Join a high-growth team backed by YC, ACE Ventures, and Founderful, serving massive demand from biopharma giants and frontier labs like Microsoft Research.
- Significant ownership and equity in a fast-growing startup where software engineers directly influence physical-world scientific outcomes and lab automation architecture.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What You Will Do
- Build the LabOS orchestration layer to coordinate complex dependencies between lab instruments, experiment scheduling, and data capture.
- Develop custom AI agents and tooling that automate decision-making across the entire experiment lifecycle, from protocol design to failure analysis.
- Turn proprietary hardware into API-controllable devices, enabling software and AI agents to operate sophisticated lab equipment programmatically.
The ideal candidate
- Proven full-stack experience with TypeScript, React, Node, and Postgres, with a track record of shipping production-grade software.
- Strong product instinct and the ability to operate autonomously, starting from high-level goals rather than rigid technical specifications.
- Enthusiastic about the intersection of software and biology, with a workflow heavily integrated with AI tools to accelerate development.
