About the role

The research project is funded at the Biofoundry through the Gram-Negative Antibiotic Discovery Innovator award (Wellcome, Novo Nordisk Foundation and Gates Foundation). The position will be based at the London Biofoundry, a cutting-edge Engineering Biology lab on Imperial’s new White City campus with an integrated SynBio stack bringing together in-house DNA synthesis, high-throughput liquid handling, sequencers, high-end plate readers, microscopes, flow cytometers, bioreactors and analytical instruments to speed up strain engineering and screening workflows. The project will interface with several teams in the strain engineering and AMR community at Imperial including the Fleming Initiative, Drug Discovery Hub, Bezos Centre for Sustainable Protein, and international teams at the Global Biofoundries Alliance.


What you would be doing

You will develop novel workflows for adaptive laboratory evolution and next generation sequencing at the London Biofoundry in collaboration with the Biofoundry team, national and international partners. These projects will include the design and execution of fully automated sample preparation workflows, sequencing campaigns on Illumina, ONT and PacBio sequencing platforms and the bioinformatic analysis of short- and long-read sequencing data. The project also offers opportunities for novel microfluidics assays and single-cell sequencing.

What we are looking for

We are looking for a highly motivated and focused team member who will enjoy advancing both technical lab capabilities and analysis workflows in a very collaborative and international environment supported by cutting-edge research platforms.


What we can offer you

  • The opportunity to continue your career at a world-leading institution and be part of our mission to continue science for humanity.
  • Grow your career: gain access to Imperial’s sector-leading dedicated career support for researchers as well as opportunities for promotion and progression.
  • Sector-leading salary and remuneration package (including 41 days off a year and generous pension schemes).
  • Be part of a diverse, inclusive and collaborative work culture with various staff networks and resources to support your personal and professional wellbeing.

Further information

This is a full-time post (35h per week), fixed-term contract for 24 months starting from October 2026 with potential extension.
