Scientific Account Manager, AI & Biotech

01Adaptyv is building an automated lab that lets AI agents run biology experiments

We're entering the era of agentic science where AI models can now design novel proteins, propose hypotheses, and iterate on experimental results. But they can't run the experiments themselves - that's still a manual, months-long process. We're building the infrastructure that gives AI agents access to the physical world.

We are one of the fastest growing biotech companies, trusted by leading biopharmas, frontier AI labs, and the techbio companies pushing the field forward. This is a rare chance to help advance some of the most important work happening in biotech today.

Our automated lab is powered by a deep software + hardware stack: lab instruments worth millions of USD reverse-engineered into API-controllable hardware, dozens of devices orchestrated through complex workflows, full observability on everything that happens in the lab, processing pipelines for messy physical-world data, and AI systems that troubleshoot production results and accelerate assay development.

We’re growing rapidly and are hiring for talented people to scale and support the massive demand for AI-driven wet lab experimentation.

02About the Role

Our customers are AI labs and biotechs that design biology. They send us their designs, our automated lab runs the experiments, and they get the data back. The first experiment is only the start. We want every customer to run their next experiment with us, and the one after that.

You own a portfolio of AI-lab and biotech accounts after the first deal is signed. You make sure each project lands. You learn where each customer's research is going, and you turn that into the next order.

03What You'll Do

• Run your accounts. You are the main contact for your customers, from project kickoff to delivery of results.

• Keep projects on track. You work with the lab and our forward-deployed scientists, so timelines hold and customers always know where things stand.

• Grow revenue. You find the next experiment, the larger campaign, the new team inside the same company. Renewals and expansion are your number.

• Bring the customer's voice back. You tell product and the lab what customers need next.

04What We're Looking For

• Account growth experience. You have managed and grown accounts in biotech, life-science tools or technical B2B. You have grown accounts, not only kept them.

• Scientific fluency. An MSc or PhD in biochemistry, protein engineering or a related field. You can read binding kinetics and expression data, and discuss assay design and results with a protein designer as a peer.

• Organized and reliable. You hold timelines, and no customer email sits unanswered.

• Self-starter. Nobody hands you a playbook. You see what an account needs and do it.

• AI-native. It's 2026: you use Claude and similar tools every day to prepare, follow up and stay on top of your accounts, and you check what they produce.

• At home in AI x bio. You follow protein design models and the labs that build them. A plus, not required.

05Application deadline

We are reviewing applicants on a rolling basis.
