Application Scientist; Biochemistry

Application Scientist (Biochemistry)

Turn Breakthrough Science into Real-World Solutions

Why This Role Matters When a researcher's stem cell differentiation fails, months of work can be lost. When an antibody doesn't perform as expected, a clinical study stalls. At Filtrous, we don't just sell reagents and cell culture products. We help scientists succeed. As our Application Scientist in Biochemistry, you'll be the expert who bridges the gap between our products and real laboratory challenges.

You'll develop validated protocols, travel to customer sites to solve problems firsthand, and create the technical content that helps scientists get results faster. Your work will directly impact research outcomes in cell therapy, diagnostics, and life science discovery.

What You'll Do

• Turn Complex Techniques into Reproducible Success:
  Develop and validate cell culture protocols, stem cell differentiation methods, and immunoassays that customers can trust. You'll eliminate the trial-and-error that wastes their time and resources.
• Be the Expert in the Field:
  Travel to customer sites to troubleshoot failed experiments, optimize antibody panels, and validate molecular assays. Your hands-on support turns frustrated customers into loyal partners.
• Bridge the Knowledge Gap:
  Many labs lack expertise in advanced techniques like iPSC culture or multiplex immunoassays. You'll conduct training sessions that unlock capabilities they didn't know they had.
• Create Content that Sells:
  Author application notes, white papers, and protocols that demonstrate product value. Your technical content becomes the proof that wins new customers.
• Shape What We Build:
  Collaborate with R&D to ensure new products actually work in customer workflows. Your field insights prevent costly product-market mismatches.
• Arm the Sales Team:
  Provide technical demonstrations and answer the hard questions during customer engagements. Your expertise closes deals that sales alone cannot.

How Success is Measured

• Deliver 6+ validated protocols and technical application notes per quarter that customers can implement immediately
• Achieve 90%+ customer satisfaction on field support visits and training sessions
• Reduce product-related support tickets by providing clear documentation and proactive training
• Contribute to new product launches with field-validated performance data

Why You ll Love It Here At Filtrous, you re not buried in a corporate R&D; lab running the same assay forever. You re a key player working closely with a small, collaborative team where your expertise directly impacts customers and products. You ll report directly to the Director of R&D, collaborate daily with sales, QC, and operations, and see your protocols used by real scientists solving real problems.

You ll travel, meet customers, and build deep expertise across multiple applications. And as Filtrous grows, you ll grow with us: expanding into new product areas, mentoring future hires, and shaping our technical direction.

Who You Are

• Ph.D. in Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, Cell Biology, or related field (required)
• Hands-on expert in cell culture, stem cells, immunoassays, and molecular biology techniques
• Proficient with key platforms: flow cytometry, qPCR, ELISA, Western blot, cell-based assays
• Strong communicator: you can explain complex science to both PhDs and technicians
• Customer-focused: you genuinely enjoy solving problems and helping scientists succeed
• Willing to travel: customer sites, training sessions, and industry events

Bonus points if you have:
