About the role
National Laboratory of the Rockies (NLR) seeks a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Synthetic Biology and Bioconversion group to engineer a non-model but genetically amenable bacterium for aerobic conversion of C1 substrates to fuels and chemicals. Initial appointment is one year with possible renewal up to three years.
The successful candidate will conduct metabolic engineering and synthetic biology work, publish results, and collaborate across disciplines in a mission-driven lab near Golden, CO.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
