What it means: the chance that no one is really hiring for this job.How to read it: 60% or higher means we think this is a ghost. Lower scores are less of a worry.How we score it: age, reposts, open roles vs team size, how fast jobs close, and whether pay is listed.Fine print: an estimate from public data, not a judgment of the company.

LatchBio is a biotech-focused software and AI company that builds a modular, enterprise-grade platform to analyze and operationalize complex biological data and deploy frontier AI agents into real scientific workflows. It produces reproducible, Nextflow-based workflows, scalable compute “pods,” file and metadata registries, and white‑labeled analysis portals for solution providers and biopharma/R&D labs. In parallel, LatchBio develops and publishes verifiable benchmarks that evaluate how modern AI agents perform on real-world biological tasks (single‑cell, spatial, epigenomics, preclinical pharmacology, and pathogen genomic surveillance), and has expanded into biosecurity work through the acquisition of TwentyTwo and the formation of Latch Biosecurity. The company’s customers include instrument vendors, biopharma, and academic research organizations.

📋 Description

• Define expert reasoning for research questions and R&D decisions • Write gold-standard answers with defensible neuroscientific rationale • Design realistic research scenarios from hypothesis and target selection through experimental design, data processing, and inference • Curate multimodal neuroscience data bundles • Pair basic-science and disease tasks to assess transfer from normal function to pathology • Partner with software engineers to create benchmark workflows • Test model-system and unit-of-analysis choices • Assess translation from rodent, iPSC, or organoid findings to human disease • Adjudicate contested literature claims and identify experiments that would resolve them • Interrogate agent reasoning step by step • Identify reasoning failures and explain expert alternatives and evidence requirements • Score agent confidence and reward calibrated uncertainty

🎯 Requirements

• PhD or MD/PhD in neuroscience or a closely related field • Hands-on neuroscience research experience with first-hand data analysis and a publication record • Direct experience analyzing raw data in at least two modalities: electrophysiology, optical imaging, EEG/sEEG, neuroimaging, single-cell or spatial omics, neuropathology, or quantitative behavior • Deep expertise in at least one area: systems/circuit, cellular/molecular, clinical/translational, or computational neuroscience • Working fluency across system levels • Strong command of experimental design and statistics • Proficiency in AI agent use • Judgment to identify scientifically unsound model reasoning • Practical understanding of iPSC neurons, organoids, rodents, NHP, and human cohorts • Familiarity with Allen Brain Cell Atlas/BICAN, DANDI/NWB, OpenNeuro/BIDS, IBL, ADNI, PPMI, UK Biobank, ClinVar/gnomAD is a plus • US citizenship, permanent residence, or OPT-holder status; no STEM OPT extension or sponsorship support
