Scientists are solving some of the world’s most critical problems, from cancer treatments to climate change.
All with outdated tools.
Scientific software hasn’t kept up with the demands of large-scale data and lab advances.
These clunky tools slow down experiment cycles and are frustrating to work with.
Sphinx was born out of frustration with the status quo.
Our founder, Nicholas, spent years building tools internally at leading AI drug discovery companies because commercial options were limited.
After hundreds of conversations with other cutting edge biotech companies, he knew a truly useful solution would have to be:
Flexible enough for scientists to modify
Able to process large-scale throughputs
Easy to use and a genuine time-saver
That’s how Sphinx was born.
The goal: to accelerate the development of life-saving medicines.
By automating more and more of the busywork involved in data management and analysis, we’re freeing up time for science.
We want scientists to be able to get their results faster. And this is the framework we use to get there:
The end goal for everything is to push the boundaries of science. We foster a love for science internally so that we’re better equipped to help our customers.
We move fast so that our customers can move faster. With patient lives on the line, we understand the importance of taking timely action.
For Sphinx to work as intended, our customers must trust us with sensitive data. Data security is one of our founding pillars.
We bring together the best of engineering and biology in our team. It’s how we built a powerful tool that partners our customers’ internal teams.
Communication is fundamental to sound science. We share updates and follow up proactively.
Here’s how Sphinx is making a day-to-day difference for our customers.
Sphinx’s platform has been a game-changer for us. Our scientists are able to go from results to decisions within minutes, accelerating our experimental timelines.
Sphinx has been an important part of integrating our wet lab and computational teams. Their platform has streamlined our workflows, eliminated bottlenecks and improved productivity for both scientists and data teams.
We’re gearing up for a revolution in biotechnology.
There’s a reason Sphinx is moving so fast. We’ve got a team with deep expertise in software engineering AND biology.
We’re looking for team members who:
- love science and read research papers as a hobby
- have high integrity and a strong work ethic
- take initiative and solve problems instead of waiting on others
- prefer over-communication over miscommunication
If you’re excited by the work we’re doing and ready to take on the demands of a fast-paced startup, we’d love to connect with you.
