About the Role
Rise Research is building a hands-on lab experiment program for students, combining offline bench work with online research training. We're looking for a life sciences PhD to set up this program from the ground up, from lab space and safety protocols to curriculum and student training.

- Write clear, student-friendly protocols and risk assessments
- Train and supervise students in lab technique and biosafety
- Support online sessions on literature review, data analysis, and scientific writing
- Maintain compliance documentation and scale the curriculum as the program grows
Who you are
- PhD in a life sciences discipline (molecular biology, biotechnology, biochemistry, microbiology, or related)
- 3+ years of hands-on lab experience with core molecular biology techniques
- Familiar with BSL-1 setup and safety protocols
- Comfortable working independently in a 0-to-1 environment
- Strong communicator, able to explain technical concepts to students new to lab work
- Teaching, workshop, or curriculum design experience is a plus
What we offer
- The opportunity to build a lab program from the ground up and shape its long-term direction
- A collaborative, mission-driven environment focused on getting students real research experience
- Compensation is competitive, based on experience
