Senior Scientist / Research Scientist, Molecular Biology

We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced scientist with a multidisciplinary background in molecular biology and synthetic biology, a strong product-development mindset, and the ability to build new technologies and workflows from the ground up.

As a key member of a small, collaborative R&D team, this scientist will lead the development of innovative molecular biology products and technologies, with a particular focus on gene synthesis and DNA library construction using GenScript’s proprietary high-throughput DNA synthesis platforms. The role combines bench-based research, technical leadership, supervision of junior team members, and management of R&D projects from concept and feasibility assessment through process development, technology transfer, and commercialization.

The successful candidate will help establish robust, scalable workflows that enable automated, large-scale production while collaborating closely with cross-functional partners in bioinformatics, chemistry, manufacturing, and quality.
