consumer health startup pioneering the category of genetically engineered
probiotics. Our team of PhD scientists takes traditional probiotics and
enhances them – giving them powerful new functionalities that improve human
health and enrich daily life. We incorporate these new probiotics into our
own branded products and sell them direct-to-consumer (DTC). Our first product – the world’s first ever genetically
engineered probiotic to go to market – breaks down acetaldehyde, an unwanted
byproduct of alcohol. We launched this product in August 2019, and since then
we’ve closed a Seed Round of funding and successfully developed product #2,
which will launch within a year. We’re backed by Y Combinator (W18), Oyster
Ventures, and Khosla Ventures.
This role is designed for growth and will report directly to the
CEO (PhD scientist, Head of Product). Remote work is possible with the option
to be on-site at our San Francisco laboratory location. Depending on the
candidate’s qualifications, we may consider contract-to-hire preferable to
immediate employment. This role will have the opportunity to hire and manage
an applied team over time. The world’s first consumer GMO microbes are creating
opportunities to innovate in food production processes. Help ZBiotics create new technologies with industry leading
safety and quality. What we’re looking for This role requires a food safety expert that combines
operational and analytical excellence with an understanding of consumer
product design and regulation. Previous experience with managing quality
compliance in beverage production and commercialization is essential. The ideal candidate will be highly systematic and come with a
firm executional understanding and passion for using scientific principles to
deliver outcomes in a real product. They will have an interest in current
affairs related to future food production and a desire to be an expert in
regulatory and de facto requirements in the field. They will communicate well
with a wide range of personalities in 3rd party contractors, developing close
relationships and ensuring exceptional work. Above all, they will be smart, motivated, and willing to learn.
They will be thrilled by the detailed work required to produce dependable,
high-quality designer food products and the opportunity to define quality
control and analysis in the new category of genetically engineered
probiotics.
