About us If you’ve got experience working with microbes (ideally yeast), synthetic biology, fermentations and are passionate about the environment then read on, we have a great role and fresh challenge for you. Sun Bear Biofuture was born in 2022 out of a desire to use modern science and technology to have a meaningful environmental impact. We are reimagining farming to produce everyday essentials more sustainably. We’re starting by using synthetic biology, precision fermentation and machine learning to produce an alternative to cocoa butter and palm oil. Why? Well, they’re responsible for over 800m tonnes of CO2e annually and have had a huge impact on the planet. We’re at a very exciting stage of our growth, now setting up production capability, whilst continuing with our cutting edge innovation in the lab. You’ll be joining a well established team of scientists and engineers in a critical supporting role where you’ll get to work on a little of everything. Some defining qualities for us, so you can get a sense of what we’re about, are our values: Candid, Trusting, Nurturing, Impact-Driven and Brave. If a culture built on these values sounds like a good fit then we’d love to hear from you. If you’re wondering why sun bears, well, that's a daily reminder of our mission - there are fewer than 1000 left in the wild largely due to deforestation. Come and join us on a real scientific and technical journey to help create a better world for all. About you You’ll ideally have a Masters degree or equivalent industry experience in a related field with 1-2 years of relevant work experience. You will have worked with microbes and synthetic biology tools in a professional lab environment before and a bonus would be experience of setting up and running fermentation equipment. The ability to balance time, quality and results is needed in our fast paced startup environment.

What is essential is an appetite to learn new things and being comfortable stretching yourself and gaining new knowledge. You will work closely with the Lab Manager on a day to day basis. This will involve regular procurement and stock control of essential research consumables and equipment, and helping to ensure the lab is a safe and healthy place to work. You will engage with the different research team members and collaborate with them on their experimental plans. This may involve strain engineering protocols, fermentations, among other tasks.. As you grow and develop your practical skills you will get the opportunity to own your own research projects as well as supporting your colleagues.

It’s really fun, exhilarating and a place where you'll learn a lot quickly. If you’re unsure if it's the right work environment for you, apply and we can see together.
