This work requires scientific rigor, responsible stewardship, and close collaboration across disciplines.\nWe are looking for people who are curious, accountable, and ready to tackle unique challenges. At Bexorg, you will work alongside colleagues who ask thoughtful questions, share ideas openly, and take ownership for moving complex work forward.\nWhether your background is in neuroscience, biology, engineering, data science, or operations, you can help build a stronger foundation for decisions that shape new CNS medicines.\nThe role\nYou are an experienced bench lead for our day-to-day culture, assay and imaging work. You will run methods on your own from start to finish, fix them when they break, write and own our protocols, and train junior technicians. You will also help us improve how our methods run as the team grows.\nWhat you will do\nRun core methods independently and troubleshoot them: organotypic human brain slice culture and cell culture, drug screening in multi-well plates, CellTiter-Glo, pyruvate and lactate assays, qPCR, RNAscope, cryosectioning, immunofluorescence staining and fluorescence imaging.\nWrite, test and keep up to date the standard operating procedures (SOPs) for these methods.\nPlan weekly bench schedule with scientists: plate layouts, dosing schedules, assay time points and imaging slots.\nLead the night shift on rotation and be the go-to person for culture or equipment problems out of hours.\nTrain junior technicians, check their skills on each method and sign off when they can work alone.\nOwn data quality: confirm controls behaved, flag outliers and failed runs, and keep assay performance logs.\nKeep complete, accurate records of samples, treatments and results in our electronic lab notebook and sample-tracking systems.\nLook after key instruments: routine care, calibration checks and vendor service visits.\nWork with our engineering team to improve and standardize lab methods, and test changes at the bench.\nPrepare and ship samples to outside partners with correct labels, packing on dry ice and chain-of-custody records.\nManage lab stock, ordering, lab organization, and safety practice for the team's work area.\nWhat you need\nA bachelor's degree in biology, neuroscience, biomedical engineering or a related field, or an associate degree with equivalent hands-on experience.\nAt least 5 years of hands-on work as a research or laboratory technician in an academic, hospital or industry lab (7+ years with an associate degree).\nA track record of running these methods on your own, not only assisting: cell or tissue culture, fluorescence microscopy, qPCR, and at least one plate-based viability or metabolic assay (such as CellTiter-Glo or lactate).\nHands-on cryosectioning of fixed or frozen tissue.\nExperience writing SOPs and training others at the bench.\nWillingness to work and lead rotating night shifts and weekends.\nComfort working with human post-mortem tissue under biosafety level 2 (BSL-2) practice.\nSteady hands and close attention to detail when handling delicate tissue.\nCareful, organized record keeping.\nAble to plan and prioritize your own work with minimal supervision, and to communicate clearly with scientists and engineers.\nCan do attitude.\nNice to have\nRNAscope on tissue sections, and multiplex immunofluorescence.\nOrganotypic slice culture, primary neural culture, or work with human brain or other human tissue.\nDrug screening and compound handling in 96- or 384-well formats, including liquid handlers.\nWork in an industry or regulated setting (for example GLP) with an electronic lab notebook (ELN) or laboratory information management system (LIMS).\nExperience in a core facility, cell bank or quality-control lab.\nBasic image analysis in Fiji (ImageJ) or similar tools.\nPhysical requirements\nStanding and working at the bench, hood, microscope or cryostat for long periods.\nLifting 25lbs or more.\nSafe handling of sharp blades, liquid nitrogen, dry ice and human tissue, with personal protective equipment (PPE).\nPlease include a CV and a short note describing the lab methods you have run yourself.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4629,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":7,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"associate","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Drug
