About Us
Trilobio is at the forefront of revolutionizing biological research through cutting-edge automation.
Founded in 2021 by Roya Amini-Naieni and Maximilian Schommer, our mission is to mitigate
the reproducibility crisis in biology by providing fully automated lab solutions that are accessible
to organizations of all sizes. Our integrated platform combines robotics, hardware, and software
to automate every step of the research process, enabling scientists to conduct experiments with
unprecedented precision and efficiency. By eliminating human error and streamlining workflows,
Trilobio empowers researchers to focus on groundbreaking discoveries that can cure diseases,
reduce suffering, and address global challenges. Join us in shaping the future of biology.
Role Description
Our team needs a Software Engineer with experience in TypeScript and/or Python who cares
deeply about our customers’ experience with our product, specifically prioritizing safety and
reliability. You will be joining a startup of 8-12 engineers in a combined shop-office space in San
Francisco, working to build accessible automation tooling for biology from the ground up. You
will be primarily responsible for specific sub-systems, and you’ll be the point of contact for
maintaining, debugging, and improving those systems. You will also be expected to engage
with, debug, and develop on other components in cooperation with coworkers, re-prioritizing
your work as necessary to support the team’s current roadmap or resolve time-sensitive issues.
Location
This role is located in San Francisco, CA, on-site preferred, hybrid possible
Responsibilities
- Develop and maintain internal and customer-facing APIs.
- ex. Design a new Tcode (our robot control language) command and implement it
on the robot
- ex. Add additional data to a calibration command and write a corresponding
migrator.
- Develop new features and improve existing features across the software stack.
- ex. Add a calibration data tracking feature for a new robot tool to the system’s
configuration database.
- ex. Modify a calibration procedure to avoid a robot crash identified in certain edge
cases.
- ex. Write a custom plugin for the protocol design software to improve a target
metric ( e.g. tip usage, throughput, efficiency) for certain biological steps.
- Proactively identify and resolve (or delegate) software bugs and design limitations in the
existing stack.
- Help reduce the workload of your teammates and be responsible for every single line of
code you submit for reviews.
Qualifications
- BS in Computer Science or a related field is preferred, with at least one year of
professional experience as a software engineer, or at least three years of as a software
engineer without a BS.
- Ability to code without the assistance of generative AI. While the team regularly utilizes
AI agents for basic day-to-day tasks, AI generated code is not acceptable for our
safety-critical code path, where reliability and understanding are essential.
- Strong working knowledge of TypeScript (for UI) and/or Python (for robot control).
- Familiarity with HTTP and REST API designs.
- Experience with multi-service software architectures.
- Contributed to and/or managed one or more large (at least 10k LoC) software projects in
the past.
- Ability to prioritize work that aligns with our vision and product roadmap.
- Ability to learn on the job: We are creating state-of-the-art robotic systems in the lab
automation industry. We do not expect you to know everything needed from prior
experiences.
- Ability to continually prioritize and balance tasks: offloading work to other team
members, pitching in on their tasks as necessary, and balancing long-term project health
with short-term deliverables.
- Humility and self-assessment of personal skills: asking for help, or for someone to
bounce ideas off of, rather than getting stuck. Understanding of trade-offs when hiring
contractors/consultants to design and build technology products.
Nice to haves
- Knowledge of linear algebra and/or robotics math.
- Experience with database management.
Compensation
In addition to equity and benefits, this role has a compensation range of $130,000-$155,000 per
year, based on your performance and experience. This range reflects our target level for this
role, but we're open to candidates at a more senior level if the fit is exceptional. Compensation
will be aligned with your experience and our internal benchmarking, and we're happy to have
that conversation as we get to know you better.
Equal Employment Opportunity
Trilobio is an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive
team free from discrimination or harassment. We encourage candidates of any race, color, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, veteran or disability status to apply.
