Life at Edison Scientific

At Edison Scientific, we’re reimagining what’s possible when brilliant minds from science and technology work side by side.  Our office hums with curiosity and shared purpose- biologists, engineers, and AI researchers trading ideas at whiteboards, in the wet lab, or over coffee. We believe the best breakthroughs come from open dialogue, deep focus, and genuine collaboration.

What Brings Us Together

At Edison Scientific, we share a belief that AI can transform how science is done- not by replacing researchers, but by amplifying their ability to explore, discover, and create.

We bring together people who are deeply curious, rigorously scientific, and unafraid to experiment.  Our culture values both precision and play- the discipline of the lab and the creativity of open inquiry.

We are a tight-knit, collaborative research culture built around small, integrated teams of biologists, engineers, and AI researchers. We believe the best way to enable discovery is to empower exceptional people to pursue “big-if-true” ideas- rapidly, iteratively, and without the typical distractions of grants, bureaucracy, or rigid hierarchies.

We stay flat and flexible, guided by transparency, kindness, and intellectual honesty.  Every individual at Edison has a voice in shaping the science, the systems, and the culture we’re building together.

Because at the end of the day, what brings us together is simple:  the shared drive to accelerate discovery and expand what’s possible for science.

A Place We Actually Enjoy Being

We come to the office because it makes the work- and the experience- better.  Our Dogpatch headquarters is a space designed for invention: natural light, art, lab glass, and a hum of conversation from people who genuinely like each other.

You’ll find spontaneous brainstorms, scientific demos, and the occasional Friday evening experiment that turns into a celebration of progress!
