Location: Singapore (Sembawang)

Reports to: Manager, Bioapplications

Curiox Biosystems is a life science technology company transforming sample preparation for cell analysis

through its C-FREE™ automation platforms. Our Pluto liquid handling workstations eliminate centrifugation and

enable reproducible, scalable workflows across flow cytometry and related applications.

We are seeking a Research Associate or Scientist to join the Bioapplications team. This is a laboratory-based

R&D role focused on assay execution, validation, and workflow innovation that supports internal teams and

strengthens overall customer satisfaction. You will also contribute ideas that help improve Pluto workflows and

consumables.

Why This Role

You will:

. Execute and optimize cell-based workflows on Curiox platforms

. Contribute to verification and validation studies

. Own the execution and documentation of your studies

. Gain exposure to cross-functional collaboration within Curiox

Structured training (OJT) will be provided to build technical competency in assay workflows and automation

systems within a focused R&D environment.

This position is suited for candidates with hands-on assay experience who want to grow in applied

bioapplications and automation.

What You'll Do

Assay Execution & Development

. Execute cell-based assays and sample preparation workflows (e.g., flow cytometry sample preparation).

. Support development and optimization of bioapplication protocols on Pluto.

. Troubleshoot experimental variability and improve workflow robustness.

. Contribute ideas to improve assay reproducibility, clarity, and usability.

. Work with the design lead to test new ideas and prototypes, and give clear feedback from the data.

Verification & Validation

. Perform verification and validation experiments for new or improved workflows.

. Collect, analyze, and interpret experimental data using appropriate statistical methods.

. Prepare structured reports with clear conclusions and recommendations.

. Maintain accurate, complete, and traceable documentation of protocols and results.

Laboratory & Technical Operations

. Operate and maintain Pluto liquid handling workstations.

. Maintain laboratory organization, inventory, and safety compliance.

. Follow internal quality and documentation standards.

. Participate in internal technical discussions to support continuous improvement

Who You Are

Must-Haves

. Master's degree, or Bachelor's degree with relevant experience, in Biomedical Engineering, Life

Sciences, Bioengineering, or a related discipline.

. 3-5 years of laboratory experience in assay development or lab automation preferred. We are open to

strong candidates outside this range.

. Comfortable working hands-on in a laboratory environment.

. Strong attention to detail and disciplined record-keeping habits.

. Logical, structured approach to experimental work and troubleshooting

Good to Have

. Exposure to flow cytometry sample preparation workflows preferred.

. Familiarity with liquid handling systems or laboratory automation.

. Interest in design, prototyping, or how lab products are developed. No engineering degree needed.

Success Profile

. Methodical and data-driven in laboratory execution.

. Receptive to feedback and structured training.

. Persistent in troubleshooting experimental inconsistencies.

. Collaborative within internal R&D and customer-supporting teams.

. Curious. Offers ideas and tests them.

Why Join Curiox

You will join a team focused on strengthening assay reliability and automation quality to support scientific users

globally. Within Bioapplications & Customer Experience, this role contributes to internal R&D execution that

directly enhances the performance and usability of Curiox platforms.
