About Genomelink

Genomelink

is a DNA App Store.

If you’ve had DNA tested from Ancestry or 23andMe, you can transfer your DNA data to Genomelink to unlock many apps. We believe that consumer genomics is still like the 90s of the Internet. While over 50M people have got DNA tested in the U.S., the number will continue to grow by billions worldwide in the following decades. Genomelink will become the default data storage and app store in the future. We are on missions to;
Build the world's #1 consumer application platform
Bring back DNA data ownership to your hand
Help advancement of genomics and health science
Our achievements:
$500K+ monthly revenue (top 3% of YC S21 batch)
Profitable in 2020
500K+ DNA uploading users from 100+ countries
Raised $14M+ from investors including Y Combinator, YC Continuity (invests in only top 1% YC companies), Sompo (Led Plantir & Noom), Sony, Metaplanet (Skype founder’s VC), and BerkeleySkyDeck.
About the Team

Genomelink was founded in 2017 by founders with experience in consumer genomics businesses in Japan. Tomo from M3, Inc. ($70B medical platform), Yuta from MyCode (#1 consumer genetic testing in Japan), and Ken (Tech & bio-info lead at a joint venture between Illumina and Sony). Also, we work with world-class researchers in population genomics, including Carlos Bustamante, P.I. from Stanford University.
The team works as a global professional remote team. Core members include PM and head of growth from consumer-centric health data platform companies such as Mango Health (acquired by TrialCard) and Citiizen (founded by the Apple Health team, acquired by Invitae), bioinformatician from Invitae (leading medical DNA test service), and Ph.D. scientists with consumer genomics experiences.
We’re looking for our founding Bioinformatics Engineer.

Our CTO works as a full-stack engineer with a bioinformatics background, leading highly skilled engineers remotely joining from all over the world. While we already have a great product team with those remote engineers, we hope to find a great talent who can join as a full-time founding engineer to help us scale our business and team for the following years.
