Supporting scientific breakthroughs with tech: What makes Benchling special is the passion its team members have for bringing state-of-the-art technology to biological research and development. Last September, Benchling announced two major updates to its product offerings, “Benchling Bioprocess” and “Benchling Connect.” These products offer massive time-saving opportunities for researchers in process development and lab research.

In a conversation with Built In San Francisco, Head of Talent Dean Talanehzar describes Benchling employees as the best talent out there. “Many candidates today are looking for opportunities for their work to be purpose-driven and want to know they’ll make a difference in the world,” he said. “They can find that here.”
