Ginkgo is constructing, editing, and redesigning the living world in order to answer the globe’s growing challenges in health, energy, food, materials, and more. Our bioengineers make use of an in-house automated foundry for designing and building new organisms. 
Ginkgo Bioworks (NYSE: DNA) is a high-growth, well-capitalized public biotech company in Boston that is redesigning the living world to solve some of the globe’s growing challenges in health, energy, food, materials, and more. Our mission to “make biology easier to engineer” is poised to disrupt multiple industries by leveraging innovative data, automation, and scale in biological engineering.
As Ginkgo enters a phase where demand for our services has never been higher, we are building a Transformation function with the mandate to identify and execute on the critical initiatives across the company that will enable us to scale and meet our Mission of Making Biology Easier to Engineer.

The Transformation Office will consist of dedicated Transformation Office (TO) team members and leaders from across the company who are seconded to the TO for specific initiatives. 
Build the operating plan: partnering with Ginkgo’s strategic finance team, and senior leaders build the strategic plan that will set the priorities for the next 3-4 years which will be the foundation for how the company executes. Deliver on Transformation Office Initiatives: The Transformation Office will own the delivery of Transformation Office owned initiatives which are large and cross-functional. The ownership will plan problem definition, structuring, analysis, implementation and change management. 
Develop a world-class transformation office team and lead cross-functional team members to deliver on large-scale transformation initiatives.
Drive change, own the results: act as a financial, operational, and “change” visionary while also diving into the tactical details required to deliver on our goals.

The Life Factory: We also feel that it’s important to point out the obvious here – there’s a serious lack of diversity in our industry, and that needs to change. Our goal is to help drive that change. Ginkgo is deeply committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion in all of its practices, especially when it comes to growing our team. Our culture promotes inclusion and embraces how rewarding it is to work with people from all walks of life.
We’re developing a powerful biological engineering platform, so we must remain mindful of the many ways our technology can – and will – impact people around the world. We care about how our platform is used, and having a diverse team to build it gives us the best chance that it’s something we’ll be proud of as it continues to grow. Therefore, it’s critical that we incorporate the diverse voices and visions of all those who play a role in the future of biology.
It is the policy of Ginkgo Bioworks to provide equal employment opportunities to all employees, employment applicants, and EOE disability/vet.
