About Next Sequence:

We’re a group of creative thinkers who want to foster the best communities that will bring together, build and define the standards of the most disruptive open-source computing technologies applied to Synthetic Biology to bioengineer any components of life. We are strongly convinced that programmable life components are the next paradigm shift that will allow us to change the world and humanity for the better and think it's time now to bring all of us together to do it.

Our mission is to contribute to the development of the most disruptive companies who want to enable humanity to face up to its next challenges as a species from fighting genetically transmitted diseases and pandemics to preventing ageing and climate change.


About the Role:

We are hiring a Venture Associate to coordinate deeptech venture acceleration across several opportunity areas in Consumer Goods, Climate, Drugs & Therapeutics, Diagnostics, Biomanufacturing, Longevity, Food & Agriculture, Neuroscience, & so much more, with a leading role on research, technical strategy, founder support and ecosystem engagement.

You will work in close collaboration with our Partners, other Associates, and our founders to help us recruit top startups, develop #TechBio companies with strong technology differentiation, support investment decisions and new venture development.

You will have the opportunity to work directly with brilliant Founders on a mission to change the world. You will also get exposure to leadership functions such as strategy, investment decisions, portfolio management, and investor relations.

The role is ideal for a scientist with industry experience (startup, industry, VC), a business acumen ( self-made, Business School or MBA) and a driving motivation to work in TechBio.

This is a unique opportunity to get in at the ground floor as we are creating a new home for TechBio worldwide.

Location: Flexible hybrid remote possible.

Language: English fluency required. Other languages are a plus.


Responsabilities:

You will coordinate deeptech venture acceleration for several opportunity areas in our pipeline, across :

  • Research: You will track emerging technologies and market developments to identify and prioritise white spaces where NxS should support new companies.
  • Portfolio: You will work with our talent team to identify and recruit top founder potential within NxS ecosystem and programs.
  • Programme: You will work with founders in our venture acceleration programme, from early ideation to technical roadmap, techno-economics, go to market, IP strategy, and more. You will lead scientific due diligence throughout the process.
  • Ecosystem: Through events, networking and collaborations, will help us strengthen relationships with top scientists, industry experts, investors and founders.
  • Content: You will produce memos and presentations based on your research. You may also contribute to external communications (articles, webinars, etc.)

You will have weekly interactions with some of the smartest minds in the space, through expert calls, top talent interviews, and weekly deep dive sessions.

Progress and work plans will be summarised in regular reports to Partners. .

The role may involve occasional travel for events and meetings.


Skills & Profile:

Your ability to learn on the job will be more important than ticking all the boxes, but if you recognise yourself below, we would love to hear from you:

  • You have a PhD level technical expertise in one of these fields: chemical engineering, process engineering, materials science, electrochemistry, catalysis, synthetic biology, biochemistry, computational biology, plant sciences, geochemistry.
  • You have a demonstrated interest in tech, and exposure to a sector like Consumer Goods, Climate, Drugs & Therapeutics, Diagnostics, Biomanufacturing, Longevity, Food & Agriculture, Neuroscience, & so much more.
  • You have a builder mindset. Ideally you have already built something tangible and core to your expertise, be it a reactor, a computational model, or a product.
  • You have experience in deeptech commercialisation: startup, industry, or venture capital. Ideally, you are familiar with methods for techno-economic analysis, technical roadmapping, IP strategy, and market analysis.
  • You can rapidly generate insights in a new technical field by reviewing scientific literature and speaking with key experts, even outside of your core expertise.
  • You are naturally inquisitive and curious, anchor on the right concepts quickly, and go deep enough to surface non-obvious insights.
  • You enjoy thinking about hard problems to understand the core issues and elicit specific problem statements that are actionable.
  • You approach radically new ideas with an open mind. You get to the salient questions quickly, and your first instinct is to ask how they scale.
  • You are able to efficiently gather, process and synthesize complex information.
  • You are an excellent written, visual and verbal communicator, able to build and defend a conviction, formulate investment recommendations, and present in public.
  • You are self-motivated, outcome focused and action oriented. You enjoy driving multiple projects simultaneously in a fast-paced environment, and you can seamlessly transition from team player to individual focused work.
  • You understand that innovation starts with people. You are at ease engaging with diverse stakeholders: scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs, investors, corporates, NGOs.
  • You are approachable, empathetic, and generous.
  • You are a pragmatic optimist with a driving motivation to see #TechBio change the world.


Benefits:

  • Rapid learning curve and personal development
  • Possibility to travel to HQ in central Paris. Flexible hybrid remote possible.
  • Team + Founder offsites (1-2 times a year)
  • Developing your technical expertise in emerging fields
  • Exposure to our network of top founders, investors, and advisors
  • Possibility to progress within our or others capital venture firms
  • Working with the brightest, most driven individuals you’ll meet
  • Creating the future of #TechBio globally


How to Apply:

Apply ASAP by submitting on LinkedIn. We will then review your CV and all other relevant information available on you looking specially for :

  • your academic profile in Bioengineering,
  • your professional experience in entrepreneurship and/or research
  • your sociable connection to us or anyone that we might know.


Please note that we are looking for #DeepTech profiles and do not recruit right now any profiles with only an academic or professional experience in Finance / VC only.


Our engagement to diversity:

We believe that a diverse group of minds is key to creating the paradigm shift that brings life science and computing technologies together. We strongly encourage women and people of colour to apply.

Studies have shown that under-represented candidates are less likely to apply for an opportunity unless they feel they meet every single qualification.

  • We are committed to building a diverse, inclusive and mission-driven company. If you’re excited about Next Sequence but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with what you read on our website, we encourage you to apply anyways
