Full Stack Software Engineer, Lab Platform (LIMS)

insitro is a physical AI company dedicated to unlocking causal human biology and accelerating the delivery of better medicines to patients. Our unique Virtual Human™ platform identifies novel, high-impact genetic intervention points, which our TherML™ platform translates into therapeutics—whether small molecules, biologics, or oligos. With multiple programs in metabolic disease and neuroscience advancing toward the clinic, and our first IND submission slated for the second half of this year, we are at a pivotal inflection point.

To enable that mission, we need a software layer that ties together the scientific, automation, and machine learning platforms — that's our Lab Platform: a harness for science, built as an agentic workflow system that lets scientists drive the lab through an agent. Our bar is that everything in the lab should be agentically accessible (any action a scientist can take, an agent can take), agentically legible (agents understand what the data means in insitro's context, not just how to fetch it), and humanly verifiable (a scientist can always check what an agent did and why). This is real robotics, workflow automation, and applied agent tooling — and your users are in the building with you.

You'll work across the stack — front end, backend, and the integrations that reach into instruments, Benchling, and agent runtimes — partnering closely with our machine learning, automation, and biology teams. Based in South San Francisco, this role reports directly to Senior Manager, Software Engineering and offers an in-person hybrid schedule of three days per week. We'll bring you up to speed in the domain of drug development and back your ideas with real trust and mentorship along the way.
