This role is ideal for a high-level laboratory informatics expert with at least 8 years of experience scaling software solutions like LIMS, ELN, or SDMS. You should be a "bridge-builder" who can speak the language of Quality Control directors and IT executives alike, specifically within process industries like food and beverage, chemicals, or consumer goods. The position offers an exceptionally wide salary range ($125k–$300k+) and the freedom of a "Work Anywhere" policy. As a Director-level hire, you are joining a Public Benefit Corporation at a pivot point: you will personally lead the strategic expansion of their cloud-based LIMS platform into entirely new market sectors beyond their traditional life sciences stronghold. **You might be a good fit if you:** * Have deep domain expertise in LIMS/ELN technologies and GMP-regulated laboratory environments. * Are energized by a "founding" strategy role where you own the go-to-market plan for a new industry vertical. * Possess the executive presence to act as a public-facing thought leader at conferences and in industry publications. * Prefer a remote-first culture that balances aggressive SaaS growth with social responsibility.
