18h • $100,000 - $150,000 • Remote

About The Position

Atrandi Biosciences pioneers droplet- and semi-permeable capsule (SPC) microcompartment-based technologies for single-cell research. SPCs encapsulate individual cells within a porous shell that retains cells and larger biological molecules while allowing appropriately sized reagents to pass through. This enables sequential processing within the same compartment, supporting flexible single-cell omics workflows. We are seeking an experienced Field Application Scientist to guide customers from initial technical evaluation through hands-on training, successful experiments and continued adoption. You will help researchers select appropriate workflows, generate high-quality data and resolve technical challenges. Working closely with our sales, support, product and R&D teams, you will support direct customers and distributor partners. Your primary goal will be to accelerate customer adoption and experimental success while contributing to effective, scalable scientific support.

Requirements

• At least two years of customer-facing experience supporting single-cell omics applications as a Field Application Scientist, technical support scientist or in a comparable role.
• A master’s degree or higher in molecular biology, genomics, biochemistry, cell biology or a related discipline.
• Hands-on proficiency with single-cell sequencing workflows, including sample preparation, library preparation and quality control.
• Working knowledge of NGS analysis workflows, with the ability to interpret data quality metrics, recognize common failure modes and explain results to customers.
• Demonstrated ability to deliver scientific presentations and practical laboratory training to audiences with different levels of expertise.
• Strong troubleshooting, documentation and organizational skills, with the ability to manage competing customer priorities.
• Ability to work independently in the field and collaborate effectively across commercial and scientific teams.
• Experience using Salesforce or a similar CRM, or willingness to learn and maintain accurate customer records.
• Fluent spoken and written English, with the ability to clearly explain scientific concepts, deliver customer training and prepare technical documentation.
• Legally authorized to work in the United States without employer sponsorship now or in the future. Atrandi does not provide employment visa sponsorship for this position.

Nice To Haves

• A Ph.D. in a relevant scientific discipline.

• Expertise in cell and nuclei isolation, tissue dissociation or challenging sample types.
• Familiarity with flow cytometry or fluorescence-based cell sorting.
• Experience supporting distributor partners, product launches or early-access programs.

Responsibilities

• Support pre-sales evaluations: Understand customers’ research goals, recommend suitable workflows, and deliver technical presentations and product demonstrations in partnership with sales.
• Train and onboard customers: Deliver on-site and remote training that helps users operate instruments and perform supported applications confidently.
• Guide experimental success: Advise on experimental design, sample preparation, single-cell workflows, library preparation, sequencing requirements and data quality assessment.
• Resolve technical issues: Investigate sample, assay, workflow and instrument problems, communicate practical next steps, and coordinate complex escalations with internal specialists.
• Develop scientific resources: Create and improve technical presentations, product and onboarding materials, user guides and application notes.
• Support partners and new applications: Provide scientific guidance to customers and distributor partners across assigned territories, including support for product launches and early-access programs.
• Build scientific relationships: Engage researchers, core facilities and key opinion leaders through consultations, seminars and scientific events.
• Improve the customer experience: Maintain accurate customer and support records, follow issues through resolution, and share actionable feedback with product and R&D teams.

Benefits

• Health, dental and vision coverage.
• A 401(k) retirement plan with company matching contributions.
• Structured product training and opportunities to deepen your single-cell expertise.
• Close collaboration with an international scientific team and opportunities to influence customer support practices and product development.
