Bexorg is a TechBio company pioneering a completely new way to understand and treat neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. Building on the landmark 2019
Nature
paper by Zvonimir Vrselja and Nenad Sestan demonstrating that mammalian brain cellular functions can be partially restored hours after death, Bexorg uses donated, intact human brains to develop transformative therapeutics for the most challenging diseases affecting humanity.
Headquartered in New Haven, CT, Bexorg has raised $42M to date and is already generating substantial revenue through collaborations with leading biopharma companies.
The Role
We are seeking a Principal Robotics Engineer to architect, build, and own the robotics backbone of Bexorg's automated experimental platforms. You will be responsible for:
Automating our perfusion rigs so they operate robustly and autonomously with minimal technical supervision.
Designing and implementing a high-throughput brain slice incubation platform that integrates robotics, fluidics, and advanced control systems.
This is a hands-on, senior technical leadership role for someone who wants to build systems that have never existed before, in close collaboration with surgeons, perfusion technicians, software engineers, and drug discovery scientists.
What You'll Do
System Architecture & Design
Own the end-to-end design of robotic systems for perfusion rigs and brain slice incubation platforms, from concept through deployment.
Specify and integrate robots (e.g., KUKA AGILUS or similar class of arms) with complex artificial circulatory and dialysis systems.
Architect fluid-handling and sample-handling subsystems, including pumps, valves, reservoirs, and manifolds for precise control of:
Systolic pressure and flow profiles
Temperature and gas exchange
Dosing concentrations and timing
Automation & Control
Develop robust automation for the full experimental workflow: setup, calibration, operation, monitoring, fault detection, and safe shutdown.
Implement and maintain ROS-2-based software to coordinate robots, sensors, pumps, valves, and supervisory control.
Build state machines, safety interlocks, and real-time monitoring to ensure system reliability and reproducibility in a wet-lab environment.
Collaborate with software engineers to integrate robotics systems with higher-level orchestration, data acquisition, and LIMS/ELN tools.
Execution & Ownership
Rapidly prototype, test, and iterate on mechanical, electrical, and control designs to reach production-grade reliability.
Define and refine acceptance tests, performance metrics, and validation protocols for automated systems.
Drive root-cause analysis and systematic debugging of mechanical, electrical, and software issues in deployed systems.
Leadership & Collaboration
Serve as the senior technical authority on robotics within Bexorg, setting best practices and technical standards.
Mentor and guide junior engineers and technicians in robotics, controls, and automation.
Work cross-functionally with surgeons, perfusion specialists, and biologists to translate experimental needs into robust, scalable robotic solutions.
Communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders, including collaborators at major biopharma companies.
Requirements
Extensive hands-on experience designing, building, and deploying robotic systems in production or mission-critical environments.
Demonstrated track record of leading complex robotics projects end-to-end, from requirements gathering through commissioning and support.
Strong expertise in several of the following areas:
Industrial robotic arms (e.g., KUKA, FANUC, ABB, UR, Kawasaki); KUKA AGILUS or similar a plus
