Formulatrix is seeking a highly motivated, scientifically driven Application Scientist to help transform the future of cell culture through advanced automation using the Formulatrix Cellmatic.
This is not a traditional applications role. This is an opportunity to work at the forefront of a pivotal shift in the life sciences industry — helping laboratories move from labor-intensive, manual cell culture workflows to intelligent, scalable automation platforms.
Our automated cell culture systems are enabling research and bioprocessing teams to improve consistency, scalability, data quality, and efficiency while reducing the repetitive manual work traditionally associated with cell culture. As an Application Scientist, you will play a critical role in bridging the gap between cutting-edge automation technology and the scientists using it every day.
This role is ideal for someone who is passionate about cell culture science, enjoys working directly with customers, and wants to help shape how automation will redefine laboratory workflows in the years ahead.
The Application Scientist will work closely with customers, sales, and product leads throughout the full lifecycle of highly customized automated cell culture systems — from early workflow discussions and system design through installation validation, training, and ongoing scientific partnership.
A key aspect of this role is deeply understanding customer workflows, challenges, and scientific requirements, then translating those needs into User Requirement Specifications (URS), solution proposals, Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT), Site Acceptance Tests (SAT), and workflow recommendations.
This individual will become a trusted scientific advisor to customers while also serving as a critical liaison between end users and product managers.
As our customer base continues to grow, this role will also help build and scale global applications support capabilities by collaborating closely with a scientific applications team in Indonesia. The Application Scientist will help transfer knowledge, develop best practices, and contribute to creating a scalable customer support infrastructure capable of supporting expanding global adoption of automated cell culture systems.
