This isn’t another “scale the dashboard” job. The platform underpins experiments where losing a single data record is unacceptable. Think fintech-grade reliability and compliance — but applied to biotech brains and AI-driven insights. The company has already secured major pharma contracts (with billions in downstream pipelines) and recently raised a $10M seed. They’re scaling rapidly, from processing 500 human brains this year to 1,000 by 2026, with a growing biobank of millions of samples.
