Software Engineer, Agents
Benchling, San Francisco, CA
The role
We’re building an AI scientist for our customers. We can’t do that if we haven’t built the muscle ourselves. AI fluency is the foundation we build on; it's core to how we work, and we're committed to helping every new hire integrate it into their day-to-day. As part of our interview process, you'll complete a brief AI-focused exercise or discussion so we can understand how you think about and use AI to drive impact in your role. Feel free to reference any tools, platforms, or workflows you use today.
We’re a team focusing on shipping AI agents for scientists, helping them automate toil and accelerate breakthroughs. Our agents automate many parts of scientific work that take hours to weeks today: designing experiments, capturing data, analyzing data, and writing complex reports. As an engineer on the team, you’ll build these agents end-to-end, from designing the agent architecture to shipping intuitive interfaces for the agents within our scientific applications.
It’s early days for AI agents, both at Benchling and in the industry at large. We’ll rapidly iterate with customers and change directions quickly, figuring out new patterns for how we develop and go to market. We’ll win if we stay curious and obsess over our customers.
