The Impact You’ll Make
Recursion Pharmaceuticals is pioneering a new approach to drug discovery through the integration of automated cell biology, high-dimensional and diverse data sets, and sophisticated analytics. We are seeking a Research Associate for our Compound Management group to help us accelerate Recursion’s discovery programs and contribute to the progression of the clinical development portfolio.
Working in Compound Management, you’ll help provision drug candidates and disease pertabants including ordering, solubilizing, and distributing reagents throughout our R&D laboratories and organizing large library purchases, and running automated systems to generate assay plates. On any given day, you will draw upon your knowledge of Chemistry and work with computer-controlled automated laboratory instrumentation to prepare reagents for screening. You can expect to manage and work on multiple projects at the same time, in a collaborative environment. We are seeking an individual who has strong analytical and problem solving skills, and can work in a fast-paced environment both as a collaborative team member and an individual contributor. In this role you will:
- Manage inventory projection with careful attention to detail, consistency, and documentation while delivering reagent plates as the foundational data source for the discovery platform
- Collaborate with our biological, engineering and computational science teams to develop the most efficient path to success across existing processes and developing new ones where needed
- Grow your knowledge base and learn about new approaches and techniques in Chemistry, Molecular Biology, and Data Science
- Participate in the organization and maintenance of a growing Compound Management lab

- Experience working with automated computer-controlled laboratory instrumentation preferred
- Some familiarity/comfort with computational tools is desirable (we embrace the efficiency that comes with using computer-controlled automation)
- We're looking for technicians who know when they need to ask for help/insights from their teammates, but can also figure most things out for themselves when needed
- A passion for working in a fast-paced start-up culture where you’ll leverage creativity and independent thinking to find answers wherever you can
How You’ll be Supported
- Training on Recursion’s culture and values and our Drug Discovery & Development processes to provide insight to our unique approach and strategy for success
