The Environmental Molecular Sciences Division is comprised of 18 interdisciplinary research teams focused on deciphering molecular-level interactions driving biological and environmental processes across temporal and spatial scales. Through computational analysis and modeling, these findings contribute to predictive understanding of how systems respond to environmental perturbations thus enabling solutions to the nation's energy, environmental, and human health challenges. The division also manages the Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory, a Department of Energy, Office of Science user facility housed on the PNNL campus that accelerates the research of scientists around the world by providing access to world-class expertise, instrumentation, and computational resources. **Responsibilities** The Functional and Systems Biology Group in the Environmental Molecular Sciences Division at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) is seeking a motivated researcher with strong expertise in biosensors and high-throughput strain engineering to advance automated phenotyping and genome editing workflows. The overarching goal is to develop robust microbial, fungal, and algal platforms for biofuels and bioproducts through genetic and phenotypic optimization. A central focus of this position is the design, development, and application of biosensors-both in vivo and in vitro-to detect and quantify phenotypic signatures that enable rapid, data-driven strain improvement. Experience with cell-free systems for biosensor development, characterization, and application is highly desirable. The successful candidate will lead efforts to develop, optimize, and validate genetically encoded and/or synthetic biosensors that report on cellular states, metabolic fluxes, and target molecule production in microbial, fungal, and algal systems. This work will span in-vivo deployment in living cells and organisms, in vitro application in cultured cells, organoid-like and microfluidic platforms, and cell-free expression or metabolic systems used to prototype and tune biosensors prior to deployment. The candidate will integrate biosensor readouts with automated cultivation and genome editing tools to enable high-throughput screening, closed-loop strain engineering, and rapid mapping of genotype-phenotype relationships. Other key responsibilities include designing, developing, and implementing high-throughput automated workflows for the EMSL User Program. These workflows will integrate biosensor-based phenotyping with high-resolution, single-cell analyses and multi-modal techniques (e.g., transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics) to uncover genetic drivers of phenotypic traits, elucidate protein function, and guide iterative strain improvement. The candidate will work within a multi-researcher, interdisciplinary team to engineer strains with enhanced traits using genome editing and synthetic biology tools, informed by biosensor and multi-omics data. They will refine biosensor designs and phenotyping strategies across cell-free, in vitro, and in vivo contexts; integrate experimental datasets using bioinformatics and molecular tools; and contribute to scientific publications, user-facing protocols, and technical reports that highlight new biosensor technologies and their applications. Collaboration with interdisciplinary and multi-institutional teams, including EMSL users who will leverage these biosensor-enabled platforms, will be essential to achieving research goals. The candidate will ensure adherence to laboratory safety and compliance standards.
