Job Description & How to Apply Below
Most careers optimize products.

Very few get to define categories.

At Strain

X Biotech, we are building a new class of food ingredients enabled by precision fermentation — designed to unlock better-performing, better-tasting, and more scalable formulations across modern food and beverage products.

Our work sits at the intersection of biotechnology, taste science, and real-world commercialization.

Now, we are looking for a Head of Food and Beverage Product Development to build and lead this platform from the ground up.

This is not a lab-only role.

This is a commercialization leadership role.

You will:

• Build and lead Strain

X’s global applications function

• Establish and scale our applications lab in Bhopal

• Develop formulation systems across beverages, dairy, and emerging product categories

• Work directly with founder-led brands and key customers in India and the US

• Translate novel ingredients into commercially successful products

• Build the technical foundation that enables global adoption

You won’t be one layer inside a corporate R&D structure.

You will be a central driver of revenue, product strategy, and category creation.

For the right leader, this is:

• End-to-end ownership of a global function

• The opportunity to work at the frontier of food and biotech innovation

• Equity upside aligned with long-term success

• The chance to build something enduring from India, for the world

We are looking for someone with 8–15 years of experience in food and beverage product development, strong formulation expertise, and the ambition to build — not just manage.

This is a rare opportunity to help bring a fundamentally new ingredient platform into global markets.
