Founder's Associate

at  Micrographia Bio

JOIN OUR MISSION

Micrgraphia Bio’s mission is to deliver a new era of drug discovery using spatial proteomics. Becoming a part of Micrographia Bio means being passionate about making medicines that matter. You will have a direct impact on improving a medicine’s probability of success. Our world-class team includes experts in molecular biology, chemistry, physics, machine learning and visionary entrepreneurs dedicated to delivering a new era of drug discovery.
We are impatient optimists and contrarian thinkers. Instead of believing a drug only has only one target in a cell, we believe there are several molecular effects all at the same time - and we are developing the technology to see them all.
We believe in a new (future) era where drug discovery is driven by spatial proteomics: the understanding of protein-protein networks inside cells that ultimately determine mechanisms of action of medicines.
We combine cutting edge deeptech innovations in optics, chemistry and machine learning with the aim of speeding towards this new era. At Micrographia Bio, we dive deep into visualising proteins in their spatial context and build world class solutions from first principles.
The nature of our work is frequently described as the holy grail, but if like us, you’re driven by the challenge to prove that there is a better way to do drug discovery, join us. You will play a critical role in developing the future of spatial proteomics and ultimately impact, collaborate and discover several new medicines that matter.
Are you ready to help us lead the way in spatial proteomics? Apply now and be part of something truly transformative at the intersection of AI x Life Sciences.

WE BELIEVE A PERSON’S TIME IS THEIR MOST VALUABLE RESOURCE. WE INCLUDE OUR COMPANY VALUES IN THIS JOB DESCRIPTION TO PROVIDE CLARITY OF OUR AMBITIONS AND TEAM CULTURE. PLEASE CHECK THEY RESONATE WITH YOU PRIOR TO APPLICATION.

ABOUT THE ROLE: FOUNDER’S ASSOCIATE

Join Micrographia Bio as a Founder’s Associate and help us radically improve the probability of success of drug discovery. We do this by understanding mechanisms of action of drugs accurately in the preclinical stages.
As Founder’s Associate, you will work directly alongside our visionary CEO and CTO, gaining unparalleled front row action and learning on building a deeptech venture-backed business from scratch, solving complex problems, and improving patient lives. The Founder’s Associate role at Micrographia Bio is diverse, spanning operations, finance, business development, people, culture, communications, and legal. You will collaborate with an incredibly multidisciplinary team and have the freedom to shape initiatives that push our mission forward.
We see this role as an accelerated stepping stone - after being in the role for 12-18 months you will evolve into a leader within our business or potentially leave to found a start-up of your own equipped with transferable skills and access to top-tier VCs.

Example of a What a Typical Day Could look like in this role:

• Morning: building a financial model to analyse different scenarios of obtaining our new scale-up lab space requirements. Adding results of your analysis into a GSuite slide deck.
• Lunch with the wider Micrographia Team
• Afternoon: attending quarterly Board meeting with Founders and Investor Board Members (the best deeptech VCs in the world) and following up on action items
• Before leaving home for the day: Quick check on planning quarterly team All-Hands events: for example, a Team Volunteering Day and a Fireside Chat Seminar with a GB Olympian to discuss winning sporting mindset(s) applied to start up cultur
