Adaptyv is building an automated lab that lets AI agents run biology experiments.
We're entering the era of agentic science where AI models can now design novel proteins, propose hypotheses, and iterate on experimental results. But they can't run the experiments themselves - that's still a manual, months-long process. We're building the
infrastructure that gives AI agents access to the physical world.
We are one of the fastest growing biotech companies, trusted by leading biopharmas, frontier AI labs, and the techbio companies pushing the field forward. This is a rare chance to help advance some of the most important work happening in biotech today.
Our automated lab is powered by a deep software + hardware stack: lab instruments worth millions of USD reverse-
engineered into
API-controllable hardware, dozens of devices orchestrated through complex workflows, full observability on everything that happens in the lab, processing pipelines for messy physical-world
data, and AI systems that troubleshoot
production results and accelerate assay development.
We’re growing r
apidly and are hiring for talented
people to scale and support the massive demand for AI-driven wet lab experimentation.
About The Role
You'll work across LabOS — our internal software platform — building the orchestration layer that coordinates everything from experiment scheduling to execution to
data capture and results processing. This is full-stack product
engineering at the intersection of software and physical-world biology.
Day-to-day, That Can Mean Things Like:
- Creating interfaces and APIs that give scientists and AI agents visibility into what's happening in the lab in real time
- Building custom AI agents and tooling that automate decisions across the experiment lifecycle, from protocol design to troubleshooting failed results
- Turning proprietary hardware into API-controllable devices that agents and software can operate programmatically
- Designing scheduling systems that coordinate dozens of lab instruments with complex dependency chains
You'll own large areas of the product. We're a small team where individual
engineers have large impact on what gets built and how.
What We're Looking For
- Full-stack production experience. We use TypeScript, React, Node, Postgres — but what matters is you can work across the stack.
- Product instinct. You've shipped, watched users, iterated, and shipped again.
- Comfortable in ambiguity. You start from a goal, not a spec. You scope problems down, decide what to build and what to skip, and write your own plan when none exists.
- Builds with AI. You use AI tools heavily, but you have enough experience without them to know what good looks like.
- Curious about biology. No background required, but running real experiments in the physical world should excite you.

We are reviewing applicants on a rolling basis.
