Our mission is to make biology easier to engineer. Ginkgo is constructing, editing, and redesigning the living world in order to answer the globe’s growing challenges in health, energy, food, materials, and more. Our bioengineers make use of an in-house automated foundry for designing and building new organisms. 

Ginkgo's Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) group enables diverse synthetic biology projects by providing sequencing services to organism engineering teams. Our services include DNA and RNA sequencing using short read (Illumina) and long read (PacBio and Oxford Nanopore) platforms. We confirm synthetic constructs, genomic edits, and expression profiles of engineered organisms. We help develop the next generation of therapeutics in RNA and gene therapy. We support Ginkgo’s Biosecurity efforts by sequencing viruses to monitor their evolution.

As an Operations Engineer in our NGS group, you will empower Ginkgo’s organism engineers with high-quality and high-throughput DNA/RNA extraction, DNA/RNA sequencing, SARS-CoV-2 sequencing and viral RNA sequencing services. By adding your own expertise to an interdisciplinary team of ...
