- Develop and execute territory growth strategies to drive revenue, expand market presence, and position Asimov within the broader biopharma ecosystem—while actively collaborating across the Business Development team.
- Identify, develop, and close new business opportunities with biopharma companies ranging from venture-backed startups to emerging commercial-stage players.
- Own the commercial deal process, shaping partnership strategy and driving alignment on terms, proposals, and agreements to achieve territory and organizational goals.

- Represent Asimov externally at key conferences, meetings, and industry events to raise visibility, build relationships, and strengthen our reputation in the field.
- Contribute to team success by sharing insights, supporting peers, and reinforcing a culture of accountability and shared learning.
About You:
- 5+ years of commercial experience within biotech, CDMO/CRO services, or life sciences tools. Complemented by 10 years of overall experience in the biotech or life sciences industry.
- Track record of selling bespoke technical services, especially where strategy and creativity were key to customer engagement.
- Deep understanding of CMC, process development, and manufacturing of biologics and/or viral vectors.
- Ability to navigate complex sales cycles, balancing client priorities with internal capabilities and capacity.
- Strong communication and relationship-building skills, both internally and externally.
- A scientific or technical background in life sciences (e.g., bioengineering, molecular biology, biochemistry); advanced degrees (MBA, MS, PhD) are welcome but not required.
We're fueled by a vision to transform biological engineering into a fully-fledged engineering discipline. Should you join our team, you will grow with a constantly evolving organization and push the frontiers of synthetic biology. Company culture is key to Asimov, and ours is a culture of recombination; we believe that our mission can only be achieved by bringing together a diverse team with a mixture of backgrounds and perspectives.
