My lab is hiring a postdoc!

The Semantic Signals Lab at Carnegie Mellon University is looking for a postdoctoral researcher to join our team. By 2050, older adults will comprise 22% of the global population, placing greater demand on traditional healthcare systems. Meeting these challenges demand technical innovation at the interface of hardware, software, and intelligence. Our mission is to create scalable mobile systems for physiological intelligence using wireless sensing, signal processing, and AI. We invent bio- and physics-inspired hardware systems to decode hidden signals from the body and environment, and enable new sensory capabilities for millions of humans and machines.

Our innovations include using radar to contactlessly detect muscle fatigue and measure blood pressure, repurposing cheap earphone speakers to listen to heart valve mechanics, smartglasses that sense eye muscle signals to enable auto-focusing lenses for age-related vision loss, a smartphone attachment that isolates a speaker's voice in a noisy restaurant as assisitive listening aid, and transforming a standard tablet touchscreen into a sensor that can detect microliter-scale DNA samples.

Our work has been published in venues like SenSys, MobiSys, CHI, UIST, IROS, and Nature-family journals (Communications, Biomedical Engineering, Digital Medicine).

Equal Opportunity Employer | Committed to Workforce Diversity

A full-time creative career in floral design. Salaried, stable, and genuinely creative. They do exist.

About Venus et Fleur

Venus et Fleur invented the luxury preserved floral category. Since 2015 the brand has become the market leader in preserved florals, with boutiques across the US and in London. Our customers send our flowers to mark the moments that matter most. The person on the receiving end opens that box once. We think about that every time we make something.

The Role

You will work with the Senior Development Floral Designer to learn each new collection, build samples, and set the construction standards that define how a design gets made at scale. Then you will take those standards onto the floor and own them, training and coaching designers, maintaining quality in real time, and making sure that what leaves this studio is something worth receiving.

This is a role for someone with a sharp eye, a steady hand, and the confidence to hold a room to a high standard. Fully on-site in Cranbury, NJ. Fast-paced and seasonal by nature.

What You Will Do

• Learn and execute new mixed floral collections, adapting designs across product formats
• Build samples and establish repeatable construction standards with realistic production pacing
• Own quality control on the design floor, correcting and coaching in real time every day
• Train full-time and freelance designers on new products, construction methods, and brand standards
• Manage freelance teams during peak periods: sourcing, scheduling, tracking, and quality oversight
• Review incoming floral inventory with Operations for color and material accuracy
• Maintain PD documentation including BOMs, product decks, component sheets, and training materials

Who You Are

• 3 to 5 years in floral design across creative and production environments
• Precise, educated aesthetic sensibility with the technical ability to execute complex arrangements and teach others to do the same
• A natural communicator who gives direct feedback and brings people up to standard without losing the room
• Someone for whom the end recipient of a floral arrangement is never an abstraction

Compensation and Benefits

• Base salary $65,000 to $75,000 annually, commensurate with experience
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Paid time off

Why Venus et Fleur

Salaried. Benefited. Creative. Stable. A product that people remember receiving for the rest of their lives, and a team that takes that seriously. For the right person the path forward includes greater creative ownership and team leadership as the brand grows.

This position is based in Cranbury, NJ. Candidates should be within a reasonable commute or open to relocation.

Are you looking to work on cutting-edge science with real-world impact? This is a unique opportunity to join an innovative, fast-growing startup developing sustainable protein and next-generation biomaterials. You’ll work alongside passionate, forward-thinking leaders in a collaborative, high-energy environment—while gaining hands-on experience with advanced molecular biology and strain engineering techniques.

If you’re excited by breakthrough science, sustainability, and the chance to make a tangible impact early in your career, this role is for you.

What You’ll Do

• Design and execute molecular biology experiments to engineer fungal strains (gene knockouts, knock-ins, overexpression, gene editing)
• Perform RNA-based workflows including extraction, library prep, sequencing, and data analysis
• Conduct RT-PCR and qPCR for gene expression analysis
• Construct and validate plasmids for gene expression and transformation
• Lead fungal transformation efforts and optimize strain performance
• Characterize engineered strains (growth, metabolic output, stress tolerance, etc.)
• Support small-scale fermentation experiments and high-throughput screening
• Analyze experimental data using statistical and bioinformatics tools
• Maintain detailed documentation and present findings to internal teams

What We’re Looking For

Required:

• Bachelor’s degree in Microbiology, Molecular Biology, Biotechnology, Biochemistry, or related field

• RT-PCR and qPCR techniques
• Designing and executing genetic modification experiments
• Proven ability to document experiments and communicate results clearly

Preferred:

• Master’s degree in a related scientific field
• Experience working with yeast or fungal systems

Why This Role Stands Out

• Work on groundbreaking applications in sustainable protein and biomaterials
• Be part of a startup environment—fast-paced, collaborative, and full of opportunity to learn
• Gain exposure to advanced molecular techniques and real product development
• Work with engaging, supportive leadership who are invested in your growth
• Contribute to innovative projects shaping industries from food to fashion

Details

• Schedule: Flexible (8:00–4:30 or 9:00–5:30)
• Compensation: $27–$30/hour
• Duration: 6-month contract with potential for extension
