Redwood City, CA Full Time
Retro develops therapies for diseases driven by the biology of aging. We focus on cellular reprogramming and autophagy to rejuvenate cell and tissue function with the ultimate aim of adding 10 years to healthy human lifespan.

We’re building a mission-driven team of accomplished and kind individuals who embrace our startup culture of rapid iteration, transparency, and versatility.

We are hiring a new member of the SciOps team whose primary focus will be supporting our growing laboratory instrumentation core. You will be a part of the Science Operations team - a close-knit group of dedicated, resourceful humans, handling all things labs, facilities, and logistics. 

About you:
You’re a collaborative, hands-on generalist who takes pride in learning across a wide variety of laboratory instruments and systems and eagerly steps in wherever help is needed. Detail-oriented and organized, you balance following established procedures with the resourcefulness and persistence to solve unexpected problems. You communicate clearly, own tasks from start to finish, and adapt quickly to shifting priorities - whether that means staying late to finish a calibration or proactively flagging a potential issue before it becomes critical.
