Software Engineer, Full Stack (Enterprise Lifecycle)

Software Engineer, Full Stack (Enterprise Lifecycle) We are rebuilding biotech for the AI era. When a breakthrough is delayed, the world waits. Getting a molecule from discovery to patients, or a crop from lab to field, involves thousands of slow, manual, disconnected steps. AI has the potential to change this, compressing decades of R&D work into years. But that only happens when clean, structured scientific data and AI are built into how science gets done. Benchling is the AI platform for biotech R&D. Scientists use Benchling to design experiments, capture structured data, and run AI agents and models directly in their workflows. Over 200,000 scientists around the world trust Benchling to power their most important work, from academic labs to Sanofi, Moderna, and more than half of the world's top 50 biopharma. ROLE OVERVIEW The Enterprise Lifecycle team is a newly formed engineering team dedicated to ensuring Benchling's largest customers—internationally recognizable names developing some of the world's most innovative treatments and cures—are successful in regulated environments. Our mission is to help them prove their products are safe for human consumption and navigate complex regulatory processes with confidence and efficiency. The Enterprise Lifecycle team owns critical capabilities including auditing, document lifecycle management, exports, and backups. These are the foundational systems that ensure data integrity, compliance, and auditability across Benchling's platform. Our work directly enables Benchling's expansion into the enterprise market and supports customers navigating some of the most rigorous regulatory requirements in the world. Looking forward, we are exploring how AI can transform the compliance experience for our customers. We envision intelligent systems that help QA teams and auditors navigate complex regulatory requirements, surface relevant information from vast datasets, and streamline compliance workflows. As a Software Engineer on this team, you'll have the opportunity to shape how AI is applied to these high-stakes, accuracy-critical domains. The team currently consists of seven engineers working on systems that touch nearly every part of the product. You will collaborate extensively with other engineering teams across the organization, as these horizontal systems require deep integration and coordination. This is high-stakes, high-impact work where correctness and attention to detail matter enormously. As a software engineer on this team, you'll ship products that help customers meet regulatory requirements while building platform capabilities that raise the bar for engineering across the company. You will own horizontally impactful systems while delivering features that appear in FDA submissions and GxP-regulated workflows. This role sits at the intersection of platform and product work, requiring both deep technical expertise and strong product sense. RESPONSIBILITIES - Design, develop, and deliver features and systems that advance Benchling's product and business goals across areas such as audit coverage, export systems, document lifecycle management, and regulatory compliance workflows - Own end-to-end delivery of significant projects — from planning and development through deployment, maintenance, and monitoring — across multi-sprint, multi-person initiatives - Design technical solutions for open-ended problems, working independently on smaller projects and collaborating with senior engineers on larger efforts - Write well-documented, well-tested code that follows company best practices, and execute refactors that improve the codebase - Participate actively in code reviews, providing thoughtful and actionable feedback that raises the quality of team output - Partner with product management, design, and cross-functional stakeholders to translate customer needs into technical solutions, clarifying requirements and surfacing tradeoffs - Explore opportunities to leverage AI an ...
