    Founded by former SpaceX engineers, Synthego is a leading provider of genome engineering solutions. The company’s flagship product, CRISPRevolution, is a portfolio of synthetic RNA designed for CRISPR genome editing and research.

    Synthego’s vision is to bring precision and automation to genome engineering, enabling rapid and cost-effective research with consistent results for every scientist.

    Headquartered in Silicon Valley, California, Synthego customers include leading institutions in over 30 countries around the world, 8 of the world’s 10 largest biotechnology companies, and 24 of the top 25 global biology universities.

    If you are interested in becoming part of the team, you should take responsibility for projects, be very hands-on, and want to be an early member of an ambitious and fast-paced startup. We hire across the board and don't look for engineers with a background in biology or biotechnology. Lack of work experience is also not an obstacle in the case of exceptionally talented and motivated applicants.
