At Element Biosciences, we are passionate about our mission to empower the scientific community with more freedom and flexibility to accelerate our collective impact on humanity. We have built a highly efficient product-driven organization where employees can learn, grow, and thrive in a challenging but encouraging environment. We are committed to scientific integrity, collegiality, honesty, objectivity, and openness.

We are seeking an experienced Principal Instrument Architect to drive system architecture, module design, simulation, and optimization for complex scientific instruments. This is a key role within our Instrument Mechanical Engineering group requiring a technical expert with previous experience collaborating closely with cross-functional teammates from R&D and Operations. Strong engineering fundamentals in motion systems, thermal, and static analysis, rigorous critical thinking skills, and a methodical product development approach are essential attributes. This role will report to our SVP of Engineering and will be an on-site San Diego based role.

If you possess the following and want to make a meaningful impact, we invite you to explore this role.

Essential Functions and Responsibilities:

  • Translate market requirements into product requirements, system architecture, module designs, and component selection
  • Design functional electro-mechanical modules that integrate into a rational system architecture
  • Negotiate system performance trade-offs across structural, motion, thermal, fluidic, and optical domains
  • Manage internal and external development projects; evaluate and select vendors and design partners
  • Lead cross-functional root cause analysis involving shock, vibration, noise, thermal gradients, and control loops by applying structured problem-solving methodologies and making data-driven decisions
  • Verify and transfer reliable system architectures and control solutions from R&D to Operations; Support existing product lines as required

  • Proven track record as a system architect on development programs spanning from concept to commercialization
  • Strong applied understanding of motion control theory (PID feedback, Bode plots) and motion control design principles (stage / cradle / isolator design, kinematics, dynamics modeling)
  • Expertise with SolidWorks and SolidWorks Simulation (or equivalents like Ansys and SIMULIA) required.
  • Experience with programming in C#, LabView, Python, or .NET preferred
  • Scientifically curious, a critical thinker, with a passion for learning new things
  • Relentlessly seeks to understand the scientific root cause of different aspects of system performance and to steer that understanding towards design improvements
  • Ability to navigate uncertainty while developing a deeper understanding of system performance to enable development of better products
  • Ability to work in a fast paced, interdisciplinary environment and quickly adjust to rapidly evolving technology and priorities

Physical Requirements:

  • Must be able to operate industrial machinery.
