Software Engineer, Full Stack, Notebook Canvas

ROLE OVERVIEW

Benchling is on a mission to accelerate the pace of life sciences research and development. To do that, we build a suite of tools that scientists use daily to solve humanity's most pressing problems. The tools we build must be optimized to make scientists more efficient in their work, across a broad spectrum of research, development, and manufacturing tasks.

The lab notebook is an indispensable part of a scientist’s day. It contains all of their notes on experiments, how they were conducted and their results allowing the scientist to look back and remember exactly how they performed experiments. Plus, the notebook serves as legal documentation for regulator approvals. Benchling’s Notebook takes on all of those responsibilities and then gives the Notebook super powers to orchestrate functions across the entire Benchling platform. With Excel-like tables that allow creating new entities, recording and publishing experiment results and recording transfers, scientists using Benchling’s Notebook can do things that their old Notebook could never do.

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Own projects end-to-end, from initial design, to prototype, to large-scale rollout.
• Design and implement Notebook functionality from backend models, API endpoints to front end UI for complex scientific workflows.
