About the role

BioRender is launching the Product Builder — a new kind of role designed for scientists and researchers who have been building with AI. 

We're looking for scientists and researchers who understand the problem from the inside — who have run experiments, wrestled with figures, navigated lab workflows — and are now building tools to solve their problems.

With AI-assisted coding, the gap between "I have an idea" and "I built it" has never been smaller. We think the best next generation of product builders will come from people with deep domain expertise and the curiosity to prototype fast. 

What you'll do

  • Own discovery for your product area: identify unmet needs, and turn insights into a clear point of view on what to build
  • Prototype new features and ideas yourself using AI-assisted tools like Claude, Cursor, or similar 
  • Ship things. Take ideas from concept to something real users are interacting with
  • Work directly with BioRender’s founders

What we're looking for

  • A background in biology, life sciences, or a related research field
  • Genuine familiarity with BioRender - you've used it, you have opinions about it
  • Comfort with AI coding tools - you don't need to be a software expert but you’ve built a product that people use and spend your free time tinkering in Claude code and have collaborated with others via Github
  • Something you've built: a script, a tool, a side project, a vibe-coded experiment that actually worked and people really use
  • Curiosity, scrappiness, and the ability to move from idea to prototype quickly

Why join us?

  • We are mission-driven: we work collaboratively towards our shared vision of improving scientific communication and accelerating scientific discovery. BioRender figures have appeared in more than 54,000 publications! 
  • BioRender is loved by millions! We have a world-class NPS and a community of loyal fans and users in 200+ countries!
  • Our company is backed by top investors and accelerators like Y Combinator, and we are on a growth trajectory comparable to many top-performing SaaS companies 
  • We’re remote-first with team members across Canada and the U.S., offering you the flexibility to work from anywhere.
