Position description
The Advanced BioImaging Center (ABC) in the Department of Molecular and Cell Biology at the University of California, Berkeley seeks applications for two Project Scientist at the Assistant, Associate, or full rank. The selected candidate will be appointed at the rank to commensurate with prior experience. The position will report to Professor Gokul Upadhyayula, with Professor Eric Betzig serving as an additional academic mentor. The project scientist will make significant and creative contributions in the area of molecular and cellular microscopy research.
The Advanced BioImaging Center (ABC) at UC Berkeley aspires to be a world-leading multidisciplinary imaging center that drives important biological discoveries through critical new advances in all aspects of imaging technology and that drives the dissemination of that technology through a multi-pronged education strategy to scientists around the world. ABC was intentionally designed to maximize scientific productivity and impact by adopting groundbreaking imaging technologies such as the next-generation adaptive optical multifunctional microscope, incorporating the high-level technical expertise of instrumentation scientists, applied mathematicians, and computational scientists, and building worldwide collaborations aimed at tackling the challenges posed by terabyte and petabyte-scale imaging data processing, visualization, and dissemination. Members of the ABC have access to leading - edge imaging and computing hardware, as well as exposure to collaborators from a range of diverse disciplines, including in the fields of Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, Mathematics, and more.
The purpose of this project is to develop a foundation AI model capable of extracting biological insights from 4D (x,y,z,time) datasets of subcellular dynamics within physiological contexts and across scales. Incumbent will advance imaging to generate petabytes of targeted and high quality datasets necessary to prototype and build this model. The Assistant/Associate/Full Project Scientists will help develop and execute the research program focused around ABC's overarching goal of moving cell biology away from the coverslip and into physiological systems. These positions will work within a dedicated team to develop and refine the microscopy techniques. This position will manage projects and provide regular progress reports to PIs and collaborators.
The incumbent will spend 90% of their time on ABC research goals and managing and maintaining equipment in the lab and 10% of their time training/supervising collaborators, graduate students and postdoctoral fellows on MOSAIC/iAOLLSM capabilities.
Key responsibilities:
*Make significant and creative contributions to designing, building, and testing of a new high throughput adaptive optical inverted lattice light-sheet microscope (iAO-LLSM). This instrument aims to achieve a 10-fold increase in data acquisition throughput while maintaining the high-quality optical performance demonstrated in our previous work.
*Use, maintain, and oversee the operations of the two next-generation multimodal optical scopes with adaptive imaging correction (MOSAIC) microscopes at the ABC.
*Actively participate in handling/mounting biological samples on advanced microscopes and collect 4/5D datasets.
*Collaborate with a cross-disciplinary team of AI scientists, data engineers, instrumentation scientists and biologists and generate high resolution microscopy data using novel transparent developing organism reagents necessary to reach the goal of prototyping and training a 4D foundation model.
*Actively participate in national and international collaborations, presentation of research findings at scientific conferences, and publication of results in leading peer-reviewed journals.
*The incumbent will actively participate in and occasionally lead efforts to develop new projects.
These positions are eligible for full benefits.

Get Hired by taking action.
If you just graduated (or you're about to) and the job search is already feeling confusing, you're not imagining it.
A degree proves you can learn—but employers hire for job readiness: projects that look like real work, current tech stacks, interview confidence, and the ability to contribute on day one.
That's why many new grads send hundreds of applications and still hear nothing back.
It's not because you're "not smart enough.” It's because most entry-level pipelines are crowded, and hiring teams filter heavily for candidates who look production-ready.
We are actively considering candidates for entry-level software engineering and data roles, especially Java full stack, Java/Python development, DevOps automation, data analytics, data engineering, data science, and ML/AI—full-time opportunities aligned to client needs.
Our core emphasis remains Java/Full Stack/DevOps and Data/Analytics/Engineering/ML.
SynergisticIT focuses on two high-demand lanes: Java / Full Stack / DevOps and Data (Data Analyst, Data Engineer, Data Scientist) + ML/AI—so you don't graduate with scattered skills, you graduate with an employable stack.
SynergisticIT since 2010, has helped candidates land full-time roles at major organizations (examples often cited include Google, Apple, PayPal, Visa, Western Union, Wells Fargo, Client, Banking, Wayfair, Client, Client, and more) with offers commonly in the $95k–$154k range depending on role and skill depth.
For a new grad, the bigger message isn't the number—it's that results require a structured pathway, not random applications.
Here's a realistic way to think about your advantage as a fresh graduate: you're early enough to build the right foundation before bad habits set in.
If you master fundamentals—coding, debugging, data structures, system thinking—and then layer modern tools on top (frameworks, cloud, CI/CD, analytics stacks), you become the kind of "entry-level” candidate who actually feels like a safe hire.
What roles are companies hiring for right now? A typical market demand pattern is clear: organizations still need entry-level software programmers, Java full stack developers, Python/Java developers, DevOps-focused engineers, and on the data side data analysts, BI analysts, data engineers, data scientists, and machine learning engineers.
The strongest candidates aren't "tool collectors”—they're people who can show end-to-end capability: build an API, connect a database, deploy a service, analyze data, explain results, and handle interviews calmly.
Why fresh grads get stuck— Fresh grads often struggle for four predictable reasons: Resume doesn't match job keywords (ATS filters you out).
Projects look like school assignments (not production-aligned).
Interview skills are undertrained (DSA, system design, SQL, behavioral).
No structured pipeline (random applying without feedback loops).
A job-placement-first approach addresses these systematically: build the right portfolio, practice the right interview questions, align your tech stack to roles, and keep improving until the market says "yes.” Who this path fits best If you're a recent graduate, you'll likely fit if you match any of these: New grads in CS, Engineering, Math, or Statistics with limited job experience Students finishing Bachelor's or Master's programs who need a real hiring plan Candidates who apply consistently but don't get callbacks Candidates who reach interviews but struggle to close International students on F-1/OPT who need a job plan for STEM extension/H-1B timing Graduates with strong academics but thin practical experience SynergisticIT helps STEM extension and work authorization pathways, and for candidates who need long-term stability, support related to H-1B and green card processes as part of employer-side realities.
If you're tired of guessing, stop treating your job search like a lottery.
Treat it like a project with milestones: skills → portfolio → interview readiness → targeted applications → scheduled interviews → offer.

If you want to get hired faster, you don't need "more random courses.” You need a guided, job-focused path and the right people around you.
In tech, it's not just what you learn—it's how you learn and who you build with that decides how far you go.
