As molecular data generation and frontier model intelligence grow, new approaches to data analysis are needed across the biotech industry. Latch is building intelligent, high-performance agents for biological data analysis, empowering over 5,000 scientists across 150+ R&D labs to handle data from instrument-to-insights. We're seeking a BioEngineer for Biosecurity & Dual-Use Risk to join our evaluations bench, working at the frontier of what artificial intelligence can achieve in biology. About the Role You will contribute to our technical approach to teaching agents where the boundary lies between legitimate biological research and work that raises meaningful biosecurity concerns, working from real protocols, datasets, and literature to establish ground truth for evaluations. You will work as part of a team of software engineers and biologists building datasets to teach these agents to reason better across: Distinguishing legitimate research from high-risk requests Pathogen engineering & gain-of-function concerns Immune evasion & enhanced transmissibility Countermeasure & antiviral resistance Dual-use protocol & method assessment Requirements 5+ years hands-on experience with virology, microbiology, immunology, synthetic biology, bioengineering or a related field Hands-on experience working with sequencing data, molecular cloning, and reverse genetics, and reasoning through wet-lab protocols Proficiency in Python and/or R Compensation & Logistics Full-time, in-person (can be remote) OTE $120k–$180k, performance-based, based on individual's expertise Free meals (lunch and dinner) Unlimited PTO Visa sponsorship available Waterfront office in China Basin, San Francisco Hiring Process Intro call with Saúl (Technical Recruiter) Technical interview with Harmon (Pod Lead) Cultural interview with Jordan (Chief of Staff) Offer
