We are redefining global IT infrastructure by driving breakthroughs in both Molecular Compute and Molecular Data Storage. By commercializing synthetic DNA-based technologies at IT scale, AtlasBase delivers ultra-high-density, low-maintenance, and carbon-conscious solutions built for the explosive growth and value of the world's data. Leveraging nature’s most durable medium, we provide a virtually permanent foundation that transforms how the world processes and secures its most critical information.\nOriginally spun out of Twist Bioscience, our team is an elite fusion of scientists, engineers, and operators dedicated to solving some of the most complex infrastructure challenges on Earth. While our work is grounded in deep science, our success depends on world-class talent across every discipline. We are seeking a Research Associate, Supervisor Synthesis Production who is ready to bring their expertise to a high-impact environment and help us build a brand-new category of technology.\n Essential Duties and Responsibilities\nDirectly support the of Atlas’s CMOS chip-based DNA synthesis, including both Phosphoramidite and Enzymatic workflows as required to support product and customer development needs. This will entail working with scientists, engineers, and business development staff on a daily basis.\nPerform regular on-chip DNA synthesis runs for customers, encompassing reagent preparation, chip handling, extraction of DNA, and post extraction PCR, Aliquoting and encapsulation\nResponsible for leading operation of all hardware and managing limited scale production, growing team as business demands. Engineering and Biochemistry will provide needed training and support to assure ongoing success. \nDevelop and help analyze QC data, utilize data to ensure that completed samples are all of adequate quality before shipment. \nDevelop and implement SOPs for production process. Train and manager RAs and Operators to execute the SOPs effectively. Develop processes to reduce turnaround time and optimize production/\nQualifications\nBachelor’s degree in Biomedical Engineering, Bioengineering, Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, Molecular Biology or other relevant field. 5 plus years work experience in an industry setting is desirable.\nPrior experience with custom instrumentation within a workflow: running experiments to characterize either the instrument, chip, or other modules involved in the process. Comfortable in learning to operate new hardware.\nExperience in using a range of automated liquid handlers\nExperience in research or production of solid phase oligonucleotide (DNA) synthesis (phosphoramidite and/or enzymatic)\nExperience with laboratory techniques including DNA characterization (Qubit, Nanodrop, Bioanalyzer, CE), PCR, qPCR, LCMS, NGS, DNA hybridization assay experience -preferred\nKnowledge of silicon processing techniques or electrochemistry - a plus\nUnderstanding of micro-scale processes, physics, chemistry, surface chemistry development - a plusd\nSelf-learner, self-starter, with the ability to grasp concepts and techniques on the go. Desire to wear multiple hats within a small unit and develop a well-rounded multi-disciplinary profile\nExperience in effectively managing and training small groups of research associates and operators to develop and maintain production efficiency while ensuring compliance with SOPs and need procedures.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3520,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Digital Storage"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-11T08:51:38Z"},{"event":"reopen","at":"2026-10-11T22:08:08Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":31,"band":"fade","label":"Fading","p_open":1,"p_active":0.709,"p_room":0.44,"age_days":118,"expected_fill_days":85,"reasons":["conf:0","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-11-04T06:34:25Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/atlas-data-research-associate-supervisor-synthesis-production","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/atlas-data-research-associate-supervisor-synthesis-production.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-04T08:03:18Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":12576,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-05T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":3822696},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=3822696"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fatlas-data-research-associate-supervisor-synthesis-production"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fatlas-data-research-associate-supervisor-synthesis-production"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fatlas-data-research-associate-supervisor-synthesis-production"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/atlas-data-research-associate-supervisor-synthesis-production\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fatlas-data-research-associate-supervisor-synthesis-production"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":727456}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"atlasbase.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":727456},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
