About the role

What You’ll Work On

Accelerate content production

  • Ensure the BioRender library is effectively maintained as a world-class scientific visual repository (e.g. monitoring for inaccuracies/errors, content overhauls to eliminate stylistic inconsistencies, resolve content UX issues, curated for different customer segments, etc).
  • Find opportunities to accelerate and automate manual steps in the production process to be able to service more scientific communities and fields.

Lead innovative initiatives

  • Partner closely with Product leadership to bring new products to market (e.g. lead the execution of entirely new scientific figure styles within the BioRender platform; smart template wizards to create exact figures in seconds).
  • Broaden / deepen market reach through strategic content expansions (e.g. icon-sets and visual narratives for cancer therapeutics R&D based on in-depth customer research; “ice-breaker” expansions into bioengineering or agriculture).

Shape product direction

  • Apply your medical illustration expertise to inform and influence how complex science should be explained and represented across formats, surfaces, and audiences.
  • Support cross-functional partners (e.g. Marketing/Branding) on visible initiatives where scientific communication quality dictates customer understanding, trust, or adoption.

People leadership

  • Collaborate with founders and senior leadership to define priorities, turn into clear direction for teams and projects.
  • Coach team members toward stronger judgment, ownership, and capability over time.
  • Scale and grow yourself by delegating, coaching, and training the next generation of great visual science communicators.

What We’re Looking For

  • Strong experience in scientific communication, medical/scientific illustration, biomedical visualization, life science education, or a related field (Graduate degree in Medical Illustration, Biomedical Visualization, or a closely related program is a plus).
  • Deep judgment in scientific visual communication - not just correctness, but clarity, usefulness, and quality for the audience and context.
  • Operationally strong, with a track record of accomplishing challenging initiatives with clear ownership, timelines, and measurable outputs.
  • A thoughtful and evolving point of view on BioRender’s product, platform, and scientific communication standards.
  • Strong point of view on quality, with the ability to explain your reasoning and guide others toward better decisions.
  • Experience managing or leading people in a high-bar, collaborative environment.
  • Ability to operate as both a functional SME and a strong cross-functional partner.
  • Comfort with ambiguity, shifting priorities, and high-expectation work.
  • Strong curiosity about customers: how they work, what they need, where they struggle, and what good scientific communication helps them achieve.
  • Ability to build trust, maintain morale, and keep important work moving.

Details

  • Remote-first, with the team coming together in person at least once per quarter
  • Competitive salary and equity
  • Opportunity to define and lead a new function at a high-growth company
