About Us:

Culture’s mission is to simplify and accelerate bioprocess development to enable our customers to bring their biopharmaceutical products to market faster.

With a focus on upstream cell culture process development, Culture has developed a unique platform that merges products, services and data management that can be applied to mammalian, microbial and viral vector production processes. This platform enables high-throughput process development projects to be rapidly and seamlessly executed directly by our customers in their own facilities, in our service laboratories, or both, all driven by our cloud-connected web application, accessible from anywhere, for designing, managing and analyzing experiments.

At Culture, we combine our passions for biomanufacturing, engineering, and operations to accelerate the future of biomanufacturing with cutting-edge tools for experimentation, optimization, and AI-driven decision-making. We value collaboration for exceptional results, innovate with purpose, and earn our customers’ trust every day.

  • Partner with Operations and Field Application Specialists to strengthen product adoption and continuously improve reliability, observability, and incident response.
  • Prototype and validate ideas quickly, iterating based on feedback to enhance user workflows and overall product experience.
  • Define, track, and analyze key product metrics to measure success, uncover opportunities, and guide data-driven decision-making
  • Create clear documentation, demos, and communication materials to keep internal and external stakeholders aligned and informed.
Basic Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in a Computer Science, BIological Sciences or related field
  • 3+ years software product management experience, ideally in SaaS or platform products
  • Proven ability to lead cross-functional teams and drive results in fast-paced, dynamic environments.
  • Strong communicator, adept at explaining complex decisions and balancing detail with strategic vision.
Nice-to-have:
  • Experience bringing 0->1 products to market
  • Experience working with LIMS/ELN, SCADA/DCS, IoT devices, or automated systems.
  • Familiarity with process development, scale-up, PAT (Process Analytical Technology), or GMP environments

  • Collaborate for exceptional results
  • Innovate with purpose
  • Earn our customers’ business every day

What We Do

Culture’s mission is to make bioprocess development and scale-up as fast and easy as scaling software. Towards this aim, Culture’s first offering enables biopharma, biotechnology, and synthetic biology companies to run their bioprocessing R&D in the cloud. Clients design, manage, and analyze bioprocess experiments in Culture’s Console web application. Culture’s offering enables customers to focus on designing and improving their process versus spending time and effort building out their own high-throughput process development laboratory. While customers remotely observe the process and analyze data, the experiments are executed in Culture’s cloud bioreactor facility in South San Francisco. The facility is enabled by Culture’s proprietary 250mL and 5L single-use bioreactor technology and software systems.

At Culture, we combine our passions for biomanufacturing, engineering, and operations to build new solutions that make bioprocess development and scale-up faster.

Why Work With Us

At Culture we have a team-first culture. Our company values are:
*Lift others up. Because we all do better when we help each other succeed.
*Commitment to reliability. Our teammates and customers are counting on us.
*Think like an owner. Progress is driven by teams who care.
*Try new things. Big innovations start with small ideas and actions
