About Us

At Allozymes, we use our proprietary ultra-high-throughput microfluidic platform to engineer enzymes, enabling the development of tailored biocatalysts for sustainable chemical manufacturing. We collaborate with global partners to accelerate the transition to green chemistry by designing next-generation enzymes with unmatched speed and precision.

The Role

We are seeking a highly motivated Scientist with a strong background in biocatalysis to join our R&D team. This position is at the core of our protein engineering platform. You will lead experimental efforts at the bench and play a key role in driving projects forward—from analytical method development, enzyme function validation, to enzyme product application test. You’ll work closely with cross-functional teams in a dynamic, fast-paced startup environment focused on delivering real-world impact through innovation.

You will thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced startup environment, collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver real-world impact through cutting-edge science.

What You'll Do

• Develop and optimize liquid chromatography and gas chromatography protocols for product validation.
• Design and execute assays for enzyme variants using plate-based assays and analytical chemistry tools.
• Analyze experimental data using statistical tools and generate insights to drive design-build-test-learn cycles.
• Maintain accurate lab records, analyze data systematically, and prepare experimental summaries for internal reports or presentations.
• Conduct literature and patent searches to support business development and project scoping efforts.

What You'll Need

• PhD in Chemistry, Chemical engineering, Biochemistry, Bioengineering, or related fields or Masters in related fields with 5 years of relevant industry experience.
• Demonstrated hands-on experience with analytical chemistry method development.
• Proficiency in LC/GC method development and instrumentation.
• Experience in chemical synthesis is a plus.
• Experience heterologous protein expression/protein engineering is a plus but not required.
• Experience with oligonucleotide synthesis and detection is a plus.
• Demonstrated creativity, independence, and strong problem-solving skills in previous roles.
• Goal-oriented with a proven ability to deliver high-quality work within tight project timelines.
• Systematic and problem-solving mindset to manage multiple projects effectively.
• Enjoy working in a collaborative and fast-paced environment.
