Head of Device Engineering | Next Gen Bioengineering Start-Up | Report to Founder/CEO | South San Francisco-based | RETAINED SEARCH
Cornerstone Search Group has been retained by a next-generation engineering company, driven by a small team of exceptional engineers and chemists focused on building solid-state biosensors using principles that underpin modern semiconductor devices.
The Head of Device Engineering will help lead device and sensor development, process engineering, and nanofabrication efforts as well as shape the foundation of this forward-thinking start-up in collaboration with other leaders, internal engineering and chemistry teams, and external vendors. The Head will have an integral hands-on role in evolving the company’s novel sensor architecture to sequence and decode DNA, RNA, and protein biomolecules at scale, delivering true precision medicine on a global scale.
This is an opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a well-funded, nimble start-up and be part of a core team developing devices/instruments that could have incredible implications across several fields of study. To optimize internal collaboration, our client ideally prefers a candidate who is located in the San Francisco Bay Area, or is open to relocation, and who equally values an in-person collegial atmosphere.
Location Features- Ground Floor Access and Opportunity: Play a critical role in the future success of this start-up, including a strong equity stake in the company.
- Ability to think creatively, take risks, and have an impact on a range of fields including molecular diagnostics/screening, drug discovery, and toxicology profiling.
- Well-capitalized with backing from some of the earliest investors in iconic engineering-driven Silicon Valley companies.
- Best-in-class team sourcing experience from the likes of Intel, Ultima Genomics, Berkeley, and UIUC.
- Highly collegial and collaborative atmosphere. Competitive compensation and benefits.
- Excellent opportunity to focus on R&D and eventually, mentor and build out a team.
- Enjoy the best of what start-ups have to offer. Passionate leadership, autonomy, nimble dynamics with the ability to move fast, tremendous growth potential, and more.
DESIRED SKILLS, EXPERIENCE, AND QUALIFICATIONS:
- Successful track record as a process or device engineer across conception and simulations, with hands-on oversight of thin-film transistor (TFT) fabrication and development, and cleanroom microfabrication (photolithography, PVD/CVD, dry/wet etch).
- Ability and interest in enabling applications including rapid therapeutic development/discovery, early-onset disease biomarker identification, therapeutic treatment efficacy/monitoring, and optimal drug selection for a given patient.
- Experience growing and leading small teams.
- Must have an innovative, optimistic, roll-your-sleeves-up mindset.
- Strong leadership and communications skills.
- Biology experience is not required, but experience working with Electrolyte-gated transistors (EGTs), ISFETs, Bio-FETs, nanoscale TFT fabrication, and/or optical and e-beam lithography is a big plus.
- Advanced Degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics, and/or Materials Science a plus.
