Engineering & Rapid Prototyping

Join Us in Texas — Build the Future of Sustainable Biotechnology

Engineering & Rapid Prototyping Roles | New US Manufacturing Facility | Mission-Driven Science

Are you a hands-on engineer who loves building, testing, and improving real-world hardware?

We're a global team of bold, passionate innovators developing ground-breaking biological technologies designed to sustainably and safely control insects that transmit deadly diseases and devastate crops. As insects pose growing threats to human health, food systems, and global stability, our work has never been more urgent or more exciting.

And now, we're expanding into the United States, opening a brand-new facility right here in San Antonio, Texas, and we need engineers who can help us design, build, and iterate our ways of working.

What We're Looking For

If you're a practical, curious engineer who's happiest at the bench turning ideas into working prototypes, we want to meet you. We're especially keen to hear from engineers with a mechanical or design background, but electrical and electronics engineers with some coding ability are also of strong interest.

You may have a background in:

• Mechanical engineering, product design, or design engineering


• Electrical or electronics engineering, ideally with basic coding/scripting ability


• Rapid prototyping, model-making, or hardware development


• Bio-systems, bioengineering, or other biological engineering disciplines

You'll hold a first degree in engineering (mechanical, electrical/electronics, biosystems, or a closely related discipline).

Experience in any of the following is required:

• Rapid prototyping — building, testing, and iterating physical designs quickly


• CAD design and modelling for mechanical or electromechanical systems


• Hands-on fabrication, assembly, and troubleshooting of hardware


• Practical problem-solving in a fast-paced, build-as-you-go environment


• Working from concept through to a functioning prototype or pilot system

Experience in any of the following is helpful but not essential:

• Bio-systems, insectary, or other biological/agricultural engineering environments


• Basic coding or scripting (e.g., Python, C++, or similar) to support electronics or automation


• Working with regulated, laboratory, or manufacturing environments

Most importantly: you're a natural independent problem solver who enjoys getting your hands dirty, learning fast, and seeing your designs come to life.

For senior-level roles, we're also looking for engineers who can lead, not just build:

• Experience of ownership of a workstream or product area, including sign-off on designs and prototypes


• Sound engineering judgement under ambiguity in a fast-moving, greenfield environment


• Mentoring junior engineers and technicians on-site


• Confidence acting as the technical escalation point with remote/international HQ teams

US Requirements

• Legally authorised to work in the US.


• Must be able to work on-site at our new facility in San Antonio, Texas

Why Join Us?

Your Work Will Help:

• Reduce the burden of diseases


• Protect crops and strengthen food security


• Deliver sustainable, scalable solutions that safeguard communities


• Support a world adapting to changes in insect populations

As one of the founding engineers of our US expansion, you'll help design and shape new facilities, workflows, and hardware in a high-growth, mission-driven environment. You'll be part of a team united by purpose with brilliant, curious minds driven by one shared goal: to improve lives and livelihoods around the world.

This is more than a job. It's a mission. Join us.
