About Biomemory

We are a well-funded start-up building IT rackable equipment for Data Centers, using synthetic DNA as the storage media.

Headquartered in Paris, Biomemory aims at serving the fast-growing international “cold-storage” market. This position is based in Biomemory’s newest office location of Boston, Massachusetts.

Onsite interview with potential future teammates
Potential follow-up remote interview with related stakeholders in France
