Member of the Technical Staff, Phenomics and High-Throughput Biology

Conquest is building an AI-driven therapeutic development engine for cancer, anchored in high-content phenomics. We're not a traditional HTS shop — we care deeply about the richness of the biological signal, not just throughput. If you've spent time thinking about what Cell Painting or morphological profiling can tell you that a viability assay can't, you'll feel at home here.

We're a small, technical team, and we move fast.

What you'll actually be doing

You'll own the experimental side of our phenotypic screening platform. That means taking assays that don't exist yet and building them — not plugging into an established pipeline. You'll design experiments in oncology cell models, push them toward high-throughput, and work directly with our computational and AI team to make sure the data we generate is worth learning from.

A big part of this role is workflow automation in the truest sense: figuring out what a skilled human currently does at the bench, understanding why it works, and then re-engineering it so a robot does it reliably at scale. If your prior experience with automation was mostly operating someone else's system, this probably isn't the right fit. If you've ever looked at a manual step and thought "I could write a protocol that makes this disappear," keep reading.
