Rev Genomics (S17) seeks plant biologist

Rev Genomics seeks a versatile PhD for an open scientist position. Plant biologists will be given top priority. The position comes with competitive salary, stock options, and a health-care plan.

Rev is a biotechnology company that focuses on creating better plants. In particular, we focus on cannabis.

Top candidates should have the following experience and training:
• PhD in plant biology or a related discipline (open to recent grads as well as those with industry experience)
• Deep expertise in plant tissue culture, with experience with plant transformation highly desirable
• Excellent molecular biology skills
• Exposure to bio-informatics highly desirable

Essentially, if you can take a project from conception, through construct creation, to plant transformation, to regeneration, you might be the perfect candidate.

Other highly desirable skills include:
• Excellent work ethic. This is a start-up, and there aren’t many 40-hour weeks.
• Demonstrated ability to work as part of a team. In other words, personality matters.
