Head of Lab Platform

About the role

We are seeking a Head of Lab Platform to join our team working at the interface of generative AI and synthetic biology. You will lead and evolve our experimental capabilities, connecting high throughput assay work with our AI workflows and driving us towards a fully autonomous lab. This is an opportunity to think big: to build the infrastructure that closes the loop between biological experimentation and machine learning at scale. You will oversee a team of scientists, set the strategic vision for our lab platform, and work in close collaboration with machine learning teams. A strong blend of software, hardware, and biomolecular skills is essential. At Latent Labs, we are building frontier models that learn the fundamentals of biology. We pursue ambitious goals with curiosity and are committed to scientific excellence. Before building Latent Labs, our team co-developed DeepMind's Nobel-prize winning AlphaFold, invented latent diffusion, and built pioneering lab data management systems as well as high throughput protein screening platforms. At Latent Labs you will be working with some of the brightest minds in generative AI and biology. Our team is committed to interdisciplinary exchange, continuous learning and collaboration. We're looking for innovators passionate about tackling complex challenges and maximizing positive global impact.
