We're looking for a detail-oriented, product-focused team member, with experience working in behavioral health or social services, to join our Product Development team in support of the Director of Product Development. This role focuses on the careful, sometimes time-consuming work that helps our products scale and stay reliable. We're seeking someone comfortable writing SQL to build and maintain the structured datasets behind our products - creating clear, consistently named tables and views that behave predictably and are easy to build on. This work matters because those datasets directly support the Power BI dashboards you'll also help build, which are designed to work well for dozens of agencies, not just one. In this role, attention to detail matters more than cleverness. We value people who enjoy following patterns, learning established standards, and producing work that holds up over time. We care deeply about quality and durability, and we expect this role to grow as it encounters new constraints and challenges. In addition, this position will frequently interface directly with clients, helping to onboard our customers into specific products built by Product Development. While Solutions Consultants handle much of our client work, some products require our team's centralization, technical skills, and administrative access to Mission Driven Data's infrastructure. In those cases, this role coordinates setup steps, tracks progress, and follows up to ensure nothing falls through the cracks. Some parts of this job are deeply satisfying; others are less glamorous but essential. This role is a good fit for someone who takes direction well, handles nuance thoughtfully, and manages their own work with a steady hand. About Your Technical Skills You don't need to be an expert in everything listed below, but you should feel comfortable with the core ideas and willing to deepen your skills as you go. * SQL You're comfortable writing and reading SQL to build and maintain structured datasets. You care about correctness, consistency, readability, and clear naming. * Working with structured data You understand relational concepts like unique IDs, relationships, and how tables fit together. You can reason about how data changes ripple through a system. * Data structure & taxonomy awareness You understand how metadata and taxonomies are used to describe and organize entities, and why consistency matters for reporting and usability. * Power BI (or similar tools) You've built dashboards or reports and care about clarity, usability, and visual quality. You're comfortable learning new standards to support many users, not just one. * Very basic comfort with Systems Administration You're comfortable following documentation and performing well-defined tasks carefully in a shared environment. * Documentation & reproducibility You can document what you build so others can understand, maintain, and reuse it. Non-Technical Skills for This Role * Behavioral Health Experience: You've worked in or alongside behavioral health or social services organizations, or you're motivated by building tools that support the people doing that work. * Attention to detail: You notice inconsistencies and care about accuracy and completeness. * Project management and follow-through: You track work, manage multiple threads, and close loops. * Comfort taking direction: You listen carefully, ask clarifying questions, and execute thoughtfully. * Nuance awareness: You handle edge cases and ambiguity without freezing or overcomplicating things. * Clear, kind communication: Especially when following up or nudging busy humans. * Self-management: You organize your work without needing close supervision. * Patience and persistence: You stay steady when progress is slow or work is repetitive. * Collaborative mindset: You work well with people across roles and technical backgrounds. This Role Might Be a Fit If… * You enjoy careful, well-structured work that holds up over time. * You like following standards and making things consistent. * You're comfortable taking direction and executing thoughtfully. * You notice details others miss and care about fixing them. * You can keep track of multiple threads without dropping balls. * You're okay being gently persistent with clients and teammates. * You value reliability, usefulness, and quality over novelty. What "Good" Looks Like After 6 Months By around six months, someone doing well in this role would typically: * Write SQL that fits our standards with minimal guidance. * Build clean, reliable datasets others can trust. * Independently produce solid Power BI dashboards. * Manage client onboarding tasks end to end without things slipping. * Complete basic system administration tasks accurately and confidently. * Stay organized and communicate clearly about progress and risks. * Catch small issues early and handle nuance thoughtfully. * Make small improvements to documentation or processes along the way. About Mission Driven Data Our vision is to be the catalyst for change in the community mental health treatment system, by kindling the curiosity and creativity of emerging leaders and creating a new vocabulary of metrics that truly measure the quality and value of community services Logistics If this sounds like an awesome opportunity that fits what you're looking for, please let us know that you're interested by sending your resume and a brief note explaining your interest in this position to *********************************, using the subject line "Product Development Analyst".

About use184 is a biotechnology research company advancing in vitro gametogenesis to transform reproductive medicine. We're developing integrated platforms that combine cellular reprogramming, machine learning-guided optimization, multi-omics analysis, and automated experimental workflows to enable gamete development for individuals facing reproductive challenges. We're assembling interdisciplinary teams across cell and molecular engineering, synthetic biology, epigenetic editing, bioinformatics and computational biology to tackle one of biology's most impactful problems - returning the fundamental right to procreate. Role overview Most research associate positions involve executing protocols someone else designed, in systems someone else built, following SOPs someone else wrote. This role is not that. You'll work directly alongside our CSO/co-founder and Science Team Leads helping build something from scratch. You'll have input on procurement decisions, equipment choices, lab layout, and operational systems. When we design our new facility, you'll be part of those conversations. You'll see how a biotech startup actually works - the business development, the strategic decisions about what experiments to prioritize and why. This exposure is nearly impossible to get in academic labs or established companies. You'll wear multiple hats and develop a broad skill set. One day you're troubleshooting iPSC culture protocols, the next you're evaluating vendors for cell culture reagents, and the following week you're helping write SOPs for our quality management system. This breadth accelerates your professional development in ways that narrowly-focused positions cannot. You'll contribute to cutting-edge science in stem cell biology, working on technologies that could fundamentally change reproductive medicine. Your work will directly enable experiments that move us toward clinical applications. This isn't a 9-to-5 job. It's startup life - sometimes chaotic, always demanding, occasionally uncertain. But if you're at a stage in your career where learning and growth matter, this is a rare opportunity.Primary responsibilities - Cell culture operations (50-60% of your time) Perform primary cell derivations and maintain mammalian cell cultures Conduct iPSC reprogramming, culture, characterization, and banking Develop and validate reporter cell lines using knock-in techniques Maintain detailed experimental records and documentation Troubleshoot culture conditions and optimize protocols Weekend cell culture maintenance Lab Operations & Management (40-50% of your time) Assist with vendor evaluation and procurement of lab supplies and equipment Help establish and document standard operating procedures Maintain lab organization, inventory management, and quality standards Contribute to lab setup and design decisions for our upcoming facility expansion Support regulatory compliance and documentation requirements What this actually looks like day-to-day: Expect extended periods of hands-on lab work. Cell culture doesn't accommodate a traditional schedule - cells need attention when they need it, including weekends. You'll need to be adaptable when priorities shift (they will), detail-oriented when documenting experiments (always), and comfortable working independently while also communicating proactively about challenges and progress. Required qualifications Bachelor's degree in Biology, Biotechnology, Cell or Molecular Biology, or related field 2-3 years of research experience (academic or industry) Hands-on laboratory experience with mammalian cell culture Strong organizational skills and attention to detail Ability to work independently with minimal supervision Comfortable with weekend responsibilities for cell culture maintenance Physical ability to handle extended periods of laboratory work Genuine excitement about startup environment and mission-driven science Preferred qualifications iPSC culture and characterization experience Molecular biology techniques (DNA/RNA extraction, PCR, qPCR, libraries preparation) CRISPR/Cas9 experience (or strong desire to learn) Previous startup or fast-paced environment experience Who we´re looking for You're someone who gets energized by building things, not just maintaining them You're comfortable with ambiguity and can make good decisions without perfect information You ask questions, suggest improvements, and take ownership of problems You're self-aware about what you don't know and proactive about learning You value being part of something meaningful You're at a career stage where growth opportunities matter the most What we offer Competitive compensation, equity participation, and comprehensive benefits Direct mentorship from CSO and Science Team Leads Early employee status and ability to grow with the company Broad exposure across scientific, operational, and business functions Real input on decisions that shape the company Experience building a biotech company from the ground up - invaluable if you have entrepreneurial interests More autonomy, more diverse responsibilities, and more direct impact than you'd have almost anywhere else at this career stage Work that directly contributes to addressing infertility challenges DisclaimerThe above is intended to describe the general nature and level of work being performed by individuals assigned to this position.
