The posting

We are rebuilding biotech for the AI era.

When a breakthrough is delayed, the world waits. Getting a molecule from discovery to patients, or a crop from lab to field, involves thousands of slow, manual, disconnected steps. AI has the potential to change this, compressing decades of R&D work into years. But that only happens when clean, structured scientific data and AI are built into how science gets done.

Benchling is the AI platform for biotech R&D. Scientists use Benchling to design experiments, capture structured data, and run AI agents and models directly in their workflows. Over 200,000 scientists around the world trust Benchling to power their most important work, from academic labs to Sanofi, Moderna, and more than half of the world's top 50 biopharma.

We’re building an AI scientist for our customers. We can’t do that if we haven’t built the muscle ourselves. AI fluency is the foundation we build on; it's core to how we work, and we're committed to helping every new hire integrate it into their day-to-day. As part of our interview process, you'll complete a brief AI-focused exercise or discussion so we can understand how you think about and use AI to drive impact in your role. Feel free to reference any tools, platforms, or workflows you use today.

ROLE OVERVIEW

Benchling believes in putting our customers at the center of everything we do. We strive to provide an exceptional experience for our customers and our users from the first touchpoint, through our implementations, and once they are live.

We take pride in how we support the industry and Customer Success is an essential part of this equation. To keep up with our rapidly expanding growth, we are building a team of Customer Success Managers with experience in Life Sciences, who can help advise customers, develop our processes, and drive execution.

Our Customer Success Management (CSM) team works alongside our Professional Services, Product, and Sales teams to help customers enhance the value of their Benchling investments. Customer Success Managers deeply understand the customer's science, business goals, and Benchling deployment. They ensure customers achieve maximum value by promoting best practices, maximizing adoption – including Benchling AI adoption - and aligning customer deployments with their strategic objectives.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
