## Job description

At Alamar, we are passionate about enabling our customers to make scientific discoveries that translate into clinical outcomes and benefit patients. Our team is growing quickly as we develop innovative approaches to measure critical protein biomarkers from liquid samples that can enable the earliest possible detection of disease. We believe the next frontier in biology is enabled by measuring proteins at higher sensitivity in highly multiplexed assays at the push of a button, which is something only Alamar can do. As we build our team, we seek collaborative, driven, intellectually curious people committed to solving complex challenges. Our culture rewards accountability and cross functional teamwork because we believe this enables the kind of breakthrough thinking that will accelerate our mission.

We are seeking a highly motivated and scientifically driven Product Application Scientist to support custom assay development, assay transfer activities, and technical customer support for advanced immunoassay platforms. This role serves as a critical bridge between assay development, technical support, manufacturing, and customer-facing teams to ensure successful implementation and transfer of custom assays and workflows. The ideal candidate combines deep immunoassay expertise with strong communication, troubleshooting, and cross-functional collaboration skills to drive technical excellence across custom assay development projects and method transfers.

Duties and Responsibilities

- Serve as an internal scientific expert for custom assay development projects and Technical Access Program (TAP) initiatives.
- Provide technical guidance and troubleshooting support to customers, FAS, PAS, and internal stakeholders using NULISA platforms.
- Respond to customer inquiries and technical escalations related to assay design, optimization, conjugation, controls, and workflows.
- Support data interpretation, experimental design, and troubleshooting discussions with internal teams and customers.
- Partner with FAS, PAS, Product Management, and R&D to develop training materials, SOPs, workflow guides, and technical content.
- Contribute to development of technical notes for novel assay formats, conjugation strategies, and emerging applications.
- Support development and validation of AI-driven assay development tools and experimental design templates in collaboration with software teams.
- Coordinate method transfer activities including reagent preparation, inventory management, shipping, and equivalency testing.
- Design, execute, and troubleshoot immunoassay experiments to support assay validation and transfer readiness.
- Support development of workplans and Statements of Work (SOWs) for custom assay development projects.
- Facilitate cross-functional communication to ensure smooth transfer of assays into support environments.

## Qualifications

- PhD or MS in Immunology, Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, Bioengineering, or related life sciences field.
- 2+ years of experience in immunoassay development, bioanalytical sciences, or technical applications support.
- Hands-on experience with immunoassay platforms such as ELISA, bead-based assays, or digital immunoassays.
- Experience troubleshooting complex assay workflows and interpreting experimental data.
- Strong scientific communication and presentation skills.
- Ability to collaborate across multidisciplinary teams in a fast-paced environment.

The base salary range for this full-time position is $120,000 - $140,000 + bonus + equity + benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by work location, job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training. The ranges displayed on each job posting reflect the minimum and maximum target for new hire salaries but are subject to change if the leveling of the role is adjusted. Your recruiter can share more about the specific salary range during the hiring process. Please Note - We participate in E-Verify to confirm authorization to work in the United States.

## About Alamar Biosciences

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Alamar Biosciences develops a precision proteomics platform that enables ultra-high sensitivity, multiplex protein analysis from minimal sample volumes to power the earliest detection of disease.
- **Entity Type**: Public (IPO on April 17, 2026; Market Cap: $1.37B as of search date)
- **Headquarters**: Fremont, California, USA
- **Founded**: 2018
- **Founders**: Yuling Luo, PhD (Co-founder, CEO and Chair), Yiyuan Yin, PhD (Co-founder, COO and Director), and Xiao-Jun Ma, PhD (CTO)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Precision proteomics / Biotechnology / Diagnostics
- **Target customers**: B2B – Academic researchers, pharmaceutical companies, clinical diagnostic labs, and biomarker discovery groups.
- **Mission or purpose**: “Powering precision proteomics to enable the earliest detection of disease.”

## Products & Services
- **NULISA Chemistry & Consumables**: A proprietary assay technology (Nucleic Acid Linked Immuno-Sandwich Assay) that combines ultra-high sensitivity with high specificity, capable of analyzing hundreds of protein biomarkers in a single 10 µL biofluid sample. Available in pre-configured panels (e.g., NULISAseq™ Neuro 220 Panel for neurological disease research).
- **ARGO System**: An all-in-one automated instrument with onboard qPCR that runs NULISA assays from sample to result, enabling walk-away automation for both single-plex and multiplex biomarker analysis.
- **Alamar Software**: A comprehensive data analysis and visualization platform that integrates with the ARGO instrument to turn raw data into actionable insights.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: $1.37 billion market cap (post-IPO, April 2026)
- **Key Metric**: Total funding raised prior to IPO: $254 million. Annual revenue not publicly disclosed.
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Illumina Ventures, Sands Capital, T. Rowe Price, Braidwell, Alzheimer’s Disease Data Initiative, and others.
- **Growth Signals**: 
  - Successfully completed IPO in April 2026.
  - Launched NULISAseq™ Neuro 220 Panel, the company’s largest precision proteomics panel.
  - Demonstrated compatibility of home-collected fingerstick samples with ultra-high-sensitivity multiplex proteomics.
  - Filed 8 patents covering key technologies (e.g., NULISA, immunologic tests, molecular biology).

## Competitive Advantages
- **Ultra-sensitivity & specificity**: NULISA technology achieves sensitivity rivaling single-plex assays while enabling high-plex panels, addressing a key trade-off in proteomics.
- **Automation-friendly**: The ARGO system delivers a fully integrated, walk-away workflow, reducing hands-on time and variability.
- **Low sample volume**: Requires only 10 µL of biofluid, enabling studies with precious or limited samples (e.g., fingerstick blood).
- **Proven team**: Founders and senior scientists previously created RNAscope™, a widely adopted in situ hybridization technology, demonstrating a track record of successful innovation.

## Strategic Focus
- Expand the NULISA panel menu into new therapeutic areas (neurodegeneration, oncology, inflammation).
- Drive adoption of the ARGO platform in both research and clinical diagnostic settings.
- Leverage IPO proceeds to scale manufacturing, commercial team, and global sales presence (hiring for roles in EMEA, China, Japan, and the US).
- Continue R&D investments in next-generation assay chemistry and software.
