The Role
We are seeking a highly capable and proactive IT Support Engineer to join our Kendall Square, Cambridge, MA team, reporting into the Head of Platform. This role is full-time and based on-site at our office and labs. You will be the first port of call for all things IT: logging and resolving tickets, managing our device fleet and user accounts, keeping the office running smoothly, and liaising with vendors and third-party consultants. You’ll have real ownership from day one, helping us build the IT foundations our growing team depends on.
You will work alongside leading scientists, bioinformaticians and ML engineers, supporting a team that is designing a new generation of medicines with AI.
Key Responsibilities
- Own the troubleshooting and remediation of IT issues: triage, resolve and track all user requests and incidents
- Provide end-user support across macOS, Windows and iOS, covering hardware, software, access and connectivity
- Run employee onboarding and offboarding: account provisioning and deprovisioning, device setup, recovery and asset management
- Manage the device fleet via MDM: enrolment, configuration, policy deployment and patching
- Administer accounts and access (IAM) across Google Workspace, AWS and our SaaS tools, including user lifecycle, groups and permissions
- Configure and maintain SSO integrations for our SaaS stack
- Keep office IT running: printers, meeting rooms, AV and general workplace technology
- Maintain IT documentation and knowledge base articles
Required Skills and Experience
- Hands-on experience in an IT support or system administration role, ideally in a startup or scale-up
- Confident supporting macOS, Windows and iOS environments
- Experience with MDM tooling, Google Workspace administration, and configuring SSO/SAML for SaaS applications
- Familiarity with AWS IAM or similar cloud access management
- Organised and self-directed, comfortable owning a ticket queue and prioritising in a fast-moving environment
- A clear communicator who enjoys helping people, including non-technical colleagues
- An interest in learning more about biotechnology and what we do
- Fluency in English
Advantageous Skills and Experience
- Industry Domain Knowledge: Experience in the life sciences, biotech, or other R&D-intensive industries. Understanding of domains like genomics, bioinformatics, or drug discovery can help you better support our teams (though it’s not a strict requirement).
- Adaptability: Comfortable with ambiguity and rapid change. Our environment evolves quickly - you should thrive in a dynamic setting and be flexible in adjusting plans, while maintaining a positive, can-do attitude.
- Proactive Problem-Solving: A proactive, resourceful mindset. You spot inefficiencies or emerging issues and take initiative to rally the right people to resolve them before they escalate.
What We Offer in Return
- Impactful Mission: This is a rare opportunity to do work that genuinely matters. You'll join a talented, fast-moving team, access unique biological datasets at scale, and see your contributions shape real breakthroughs in AI and curative therapeutics.
- Collaborative Culture: You'll be surrounded by world-class engineers, scientists, and researchers who care deeply about their work and about each other. With offices in Boston and London, we've built a flexible, cross-functional environment where personal development and real ownership aren't just talking points.
- High Growth: We truly believe in investing our top talent, we make coaching available to team members during steep growth journeys and we have twice yearly promotion opportunities. People who are really successful here own it and go directly to solve problems at pace and we ensure reward increases with impact.
- Comprehensive Benefits: We've built a benefits package people value. That means competitive salary, equity, and healthcare so strong that most employees' family members opt into our plan over their own. We also offer Carrot Fertility with IVF stipend, 401(k), life insurance, and more.

About US
Basecamp Research is building frontier AI for therapeutic design. We believe the future of medicine lies in reprogramming the body to repair itself, and we design the models and the medicines to teach it how.
Our EDEN models are trained on BaseData, the world's largest proprietary genomic dataset, with over 10B genes collected through partnerships in more than 30 countries across all seven continents. This gives our AI models access to genetic diversity that doesn't exist in public databases, and enables EDEN to design cell and gene therapies, enzymes, and peptides directly from information about a disease. Our pipeline of EDEN-designed therapeutics, beginning with in vivo cell therapy, is advancing towards clinical development.
In September 2026 we closed an oversubscribed $140M Series C led by S32, with participation from NVIDIA, Anthropic's Anthology Fund, Catalio, European Tech Collective, Firebrand River Capital, King Philanthropies, NATO Innovation Fund, NVentures (NVIDIA's venture arm), Redalpine, Rockefeller Foundation, Singular, Sovereign AI and True Ventures.
We have offices and labs in London and Boston, we partner with biopharma companies and academic institutions worldwide, and our work has been recognised by Fast Company's Top 10 Most Innovative Companies in Biotech, the FT-backed Sifted AI100 list of Europe's leading AI startups as well as Barclays Eagle Labs Ones to watch, AI100.
At Basecamp Research, we pride ourselves on being a lean collaborative and global team with extremely specialist and unique skills.
