Careers at UMAMI Bioworks
Who are we?
Umami Bioworks is cultivating the future of sustainable seafood by crafting delicious, nutritious, affordable cultivated fish that is better for our health, our oceans, and our planet.
We’re on a mission to empower humanity to eat sustainably without sacrifice. We believe the only way to change how the
majority of the world eat seafood is to create the most delicious, healthiest seafood available but without the environmental and animal welfare consequences of traditional fisheries and aquaculture.
We’re a venture-backed biotech startup located in Singapore where some of the world’s smartest, most passionate people are pioneering a sustainable food future that is attractive and accessible to people around the world. We are united by our collective drive to ask tough questions, take on challenging problems, and apply cutting-edge science and engineering to create a better future for humanity.
At Umami Bioworks, you will be encouraged to dream big and will have the freedom to create, invent, and do the best, most impactful work of your career.
Workplace & culture
You will work closely with our technical and business leadership to overcome a number of technical challenges to make a cultivated, sustainable food future possible.
You will work directly with other members of our small but growing team to do cutting-edge science and will have the autonomy to test new ideas and identify better ways to do things.
What We are Looking For:
- Above all, you’re mission-aligned: you want to apply your technical talents to building a more sustainable food system and a better future for humanity. Whether you’re driven by animal welfare, environmental protection, ocean sustainability, climate change, or something else, we all bring different perspectives to our shared mission.
- You’re proactive. You take initiative and think about the big picture.
- You’re inquisitive, curious, and have a growth mindset.
- You strive to be high-performing and want to work with others who will help you achieve peak performance.
- You’re kind, collaborative, and believe that you can learn something from everyone you encounter.
- You thrive in dynamic environments and enjoy “hacking” new and innovative solutions to pressing problems.
At Umami Bioworks, we are building a more sustainable food future for everyone. To achieve our goal, we strive to build a team that reflects the diversity of the people we aim to serve. We believe that a diversity of backgrounds - and the confluence of unique perspectives it creates - drives innovation and helps us avoid blind spots, and we are building a culture that reflects these beliefs.
In Return, We’ll Support You With:
-
A competitive salary and benefits package
We offer competitive salary and benefits, including healthcare, paid time off, wellness benefits, and stock options -
A safe, supportive, and collaborative environment
We provide a collaborative work environment that encourages taking smart risks, setting ambitious goals, and taking initiative. We will challenge you to do your best work and provide a safe and supportive environment for you to do the best work of your career. -
An open and adaptive workplace
You will have the freedom to define best approaches to solving problems, both technical and organizational, without legacy overhead. We want the best ideas to win, not just those put forward by the most senior team members. -
Constant opportunity for growth
We believe that learning and self-improvement never stop. We will provide you with opportunities to learn new skills, mentorship from the leadership team, and the chance to explore interests beyond your core role. -
Impactful work tackling one of the world’s most pressing problems
We believe feeding 10 billion people sustainably while restoring our degraded biosphere is one of the most pressing, intractable challenges of our time. At Umami Meats, you will be actively working to make progress toward solving this problem every day.
