About Plasmidsaurus Plasmidsaurus is on a mission to accelerate new cures and promote a healthier planet by unlocking a new level of productivity for scientists. Our sequencing services are used daily by thousands of innovators, including Nobel laureates, Fortune 100 pharma, and over 70,000 scientists. We began by revolutionizing plasmid sequencing, making it exponentially cheaper and faster, with innovative sequencing technologies and a global network of laboratories that turn samples into answers in hours, not weeks. Now we are expanding that same disruptive model across all of genomics. With the launch of our new RNA-seq service, we are taking a bold step toward our vision to sequence everything, providing scientists everywhere with faster, simpler, and more affordable access to the data that powers discovery. Every team member at Plasmidsaurus plays a crucial role in driving the future of biotech research. Together, we are building the world’s most efficient sequencing engine that operates overnight, scales globally, and helps scientists make breakthroughs faster than ever before. Role Overview The best engineers rarely come through inbound applications. They come through relationships, nurtured networks, and they are attracted to exciting opportunities and teams with strong reputations and tons of potential. Plasmidsaurus has built an exceptional engineering team through referrals, relationships, and highly selective hiring. There’s a ton to build here, and we're looking for a technically-oriented talent partner to help turn our unqiue advantages as a company and engineering team into a durable talent engine. What You'll Do In this role, you'll identify outstanding talent for our engineering team, build relationships that don’t hinge on a single req, and you’ll ensure Plasmidsaurus is known by the engineers we most want to hire. You'll partner closely our VP of Engineering to understand what great looks like for Plasmidsaurus, map the talent landscape, and create networks that compound over time. Success isn't measured by outreach volume or pipeline size. It's measured by whether we know the most talented engineers, whether they take our call when the time is right, and whether those relationships become the foundation of future hires. Find Excellent Talent We Don't Already Know Partner with the VP of Engineering to understand what exceptional looks like and find people we would never meet through inbound applications, traditional recruiting channels, or existing networks. Map the companies, teams, and communities producing exceptional engineers and build targeted strategies to reach them. Expand Our Talent Network Continuously grow Plasmidsaurus' reach into engineering communities, open source ecosystems, startup networks, and other places exceptional builders spend time. Help make sure Plasmidsaurus is well known by the people we'd most want to hire, establish and share a strong value proposition for joining the team. Build Relationships Before We Need Them Develop relationships across a network of technical talent long before a specific role exists. Stay connected through conversations, introductions, referrals, events, and communities so that when hiring needs emerge, we're building activating via relationships rather than starting from scratch. Create Talent Advantages That Compound Build systems, workflows, talent maps, and sourcing approaches that become more valuable over time. Use automation, AI, and creative research methods to increase leverage, improve outcomes, and strengthen our understanding of the market. Expected Outcomes We know exceptional engineers, not just applicants. Our Engineering team has access to talent that they would not have found through traditional recruiting channels. We can activate trusted relationships when critical hiring needs emerge. Our talent network generates introductions, referrals, insight, and future hiring opportunities. We have a strong understanding of where exceptional ta…
