Description

Our mission: eradicate Type 1 diabetes.


GloGlo is building an AI-native therapeutics company based in San Francisco. We are developing AI research agents that analyze scientific literature and biological datasets, generate and challenge hypotheses, design experiments, and learn from wet-lab results.
We are building a tight in silico <> in vitro / in vivo feedback loop to identify better targets and move faster toward new therapies.
We are looking for a Founding Research Scientist in Biology to help build our experimental research program from the ground up. This is a hands-on startup role: you will move quickly between scientific questions, experimental design, wet-lab work, data analysis, and decisions about what to test next.


What you’ll do

  • Turn biological questions and AI-generated hypotheses into rigorous experiments
  • Design and execute in vitro studies and help develop in vivo programs
  • Analyze results and feed experimental evidence back into our AI systems
  • Develop assays, models, and experimental workflows from scratch
  • Help prioritize targets and therapeutic approaches
  • Build our early wet-lab capabilities and scientific partnerships
  • Work directly with the founders and scientific leadership



What we’re looking for

  • PhD or equivalent research experience in immunology, autoimmunity, T1D, beta-cell biology, cell biology, molecular biology, or related fields
  • Strong hands-on wet-lab experience
  • Ability to independently design, execute, and troubleshoot experiments
  • Comfortable working in a fast-moving, ambiguous startup environment
  • Excited about combining AI and experimental biology
  • High scientific rigor, curiosity, and willingness to challenge assumptions

One of our founders has lived with Type 1 diabetes for 17 years. We intend to work on this until we solve it.
