About Biomemory

• We're a worldwide pioneer in using synthetic DNA for Data Storage. Wild, right?

• We're a well-funded startup designing servers for Data Centers.

• The goal: Store massive amounts of data (Exabytes) for a super long time (100+ years) without breaking the bank.

We're based in Paris, France and Boston, MA USA.

What you'll be up to

• You're joining the Hardware Engineering team to work on our cool DNA-based data storage systems.

• We need a "hands-on" versatile engineer and a true "Maker" who loves to integrate micro-mechanics, electronics, and firmware into one smooth automated system.

• You'll work with the biochemistry, mechanical, and electronics teams to get products from the initial idea (specification) all the way to being ready (qualification).

• If you're a jack of all trades who loves a challenge, this is for you!

Your Main Gigs

• Design & prototype custom parts for super-precise automated systems.

• Chat with vendors to get parts made.

• Develop the brains (electronics & firmware) to control all the sensors, motors, and fluidic parts.

• Test, tweak, and perfect everything (optimization, testing, validation, qualification). Gotta understand all the steps and what could go wrong!

• Team up with all the other departments (mechanical, software, electronics, biotech) to make sure everything fits together nicely.

• Help automate the lab and make the Hardware team's work better overall.

What we're looking for

• Education : Bachelor's or Master's in Mechatronics, Robotics, or something similar.

• Experience : 0 to 3 years, ideally in biotech, medtech, lab automation, etc., working on stuff that was actually sold.

• "Maker" Mindset : You love the "Design-Build-Test" cycle. Basically, you enjoy messing around with stuff, building it, and figuring out how it works!

• You've built a robot or a complex prototype, even if it was just a university or personal project.

Your Skillset

• Awesome at being creative and solving problems.

• Solid understanding of:

  • Mechanical Design : SolidWorks/Fusion 360

  • Electronics Design : Altium Designer, KiCAD

  • Firmware : STM, RTOS

• You know how to plan tests, analyze failures, and keep good documentation.

• You're familiar with electronics debug tools like oscilloscopes and logic analyzers.

• You can roll with the punches in a fast-paced startup and work well with different teams.

• You can communicate clearly (especially documenting your results).

• You are eager to learn, and not afraid to jump in and try things!

• You are comfortable working in English (talking and writing).

The Workplace

• Onsite : You'll be working in Paris (5 Impasse Reille, 14th arrondissement).

• Cool Spot : Our offices and labs are designed to bring together hardware, computer science, and biology people.

Why Join Us?

• Huge Impact : You'll be tackling the global data storage problem with a game-changing, disruptive technology—using biology!

• Growth : You’ll level up your skills fast in a super exciting work environment.

• Unique Blend : It's the rare place where high-level engineering meets molecular biology.
