THE TEAM:

You'll join a team of innovative thinkers who love to experiment, collaborate, and win together. We are passionate about pushing the boundaries of automation, biology, computing, robotics, design, and user experience to benefit our customers and the world.

Reporting to a Senior Scientist, you will support execution and validation of genomics sample preparation applications on Volta’s digital fluidics automation platform. This role is ideal for someone early in their career who enjoys careful hands-on work, learning new laboratory techniques, and building strong laboratory habits in an industry environment. You will primarily run established workflows, generate high-quality data, and help ensure protocols perform reliably across repeated runs.

You'll join a collaborative team that combines molecular biology, automation, and software to turn laboratory workflows into dependable products. We work closely across applications, engineering, product, and field teams to ensure experiments run consistently — both internally and at customer sites. Our focus is precision, repeatability, and clear documentation.
