Hello ladies!

Firstly, I want to introduce myself. I am Samantha, a native Texan who works remotely for a biotech company that is based in Queens, NY. I know this platform is lacking a biotech presence, so I'm really excited to share our career opportunities.

Please dont hesitate to reach out, I would love to connect :)

Picture for fun!

Would love to join, but alas, I am an IT leader based in Boston. 🥺

Iynna·Sep 27

Well it appears they allow remote work?!

samanthajohnson8·Sep 27

We do have remote opportunities as well at times! You can join our talent network and put in a general application, so we reach out in the future!

ATrotman·Sep 27

Iynna·Sep 28

Thank you! I have browsed all but the MBA Fund before, so I just signed up. You'd think 20yrs IT leadership would be an asset, but between ATS and folks always looking for "well who else is out there...just in case?" the trenches are deep! Thank you for your guidance! 😊😊

Thank you. I'll send her a message. I applied for the IT Manager position last month after seeing the position posted on here. Haven't heard back yet, but I imagine they got a LOT of requests!🥰

samanthajohnson8·Sep 30

I am SO sorry that has been your experience! Candidate experience is the thing I care about most and facilitate a great one. What are your amazing skills and what kind of positions are you interested in?!

ATrotman·Sep 30

Definitely IT and operations leader roles. I'll message you! 😊

Iynna·Sep 27

THANK YOU for sharing these opps!!! So many elphas looking for work so this is wonderful. What do you do at the company and how are you liking it?

samanthajohnson8·Sep 27

You are so welcome! I am the Sr. Technical Recruiter as well as our DEI Champion for our committee. I have worked here for 3 years and I absolutely love what we do. We make liquid handling robots for scientists and biologists!

Iynna·Sep 30

It's AWESOME to hear how much you love you firm! Need this boost of positivity :) what roles are you actively looking to fill? I'll send you people!

samanthajohnson8·Sep 30

Currently we are looking for software engineering managers, mechanical engineers, and product designers in New York, as well as looking for a sales development rep on the west coast!

Iynna·Oct 01

that's wonderful! Oh someone who might be a good partner to you/your company is @cassielowell - fellow lady in robotis/product design!

cassielowell·Oct 01

Oh yes, hello! @samanthajohnson8 -- I did a lot of bio-centric work in my undergrad, and was actually Product Manager for a lab automation company before my current startup. Currently I'm working on metal 3D printing, which might be of use to your engineering team! Happy to chat if you'd like. :)

samanthajohnson8·Oct 09

Thats a great background and definitely one that aligns with what we do! Please feel free to message me your resume. I would love to review and see what would be a fit for you :)

Iynna·Oct 09

or maybe a commercial partner for Cassie's startup!! (sorry to hijack, i'm loving that alignment)

cassielowell·Oct 10

@iynna -- Thanks for making the connection!@samanthajohnson8 -- Ah, perhaps Iynna & I weren't totally clear. I'm currently cofounder of a startup (and it's going great!) so I'm not looking for other employment at the time. That said, if your biotech company has manufacturing needs and makes part out of metal, my company can help!

samanthajohnson8·Oct 10

Oh Excellent! What is the name of your company? I would love to check out.

sherlinmk·Oct 01

Thanks @samanthajohnson8, I am looking for Software Engineer roles, didn't see one at the moment so sent in a general application. Fingers crossed one opens up soon... Thanks again!

samanthajohnson8·Oct 04

Thank you for the general app! We will now have you in our CRM and I will keep an eye out.

Iynna·Oct 09

We have a lot of roles for SWE if you want to check this out? https://elpha.com/jobs/backend-engineering/devops/engineering-management/frontend-engineering/full-stack-engineering?sort=newest

mariatariq·Oct 03

Just wanted to say hi as a fellow Texan! 👋 not too many of us in product/tech but I think we’re growing

samanthajohnson8·Oct 04

Nice to meet you! Yes, as the years continue I see more and more women in tech and I hope that it continues.
