Jigup maps the next three moves from a job like this one, with the titles and the skills each step asks for.
What you'll do
- As a Scientist at e184, you will lead research aimed at understanding the molecular and cellular mechanisms that govern implantation and peri-implantation development. Your work will focus on developing and applying advanced endometrial model systems to identify the signaling, structural, and physiological interactions that enable successful embryo-maternal communication. Working closely with developmental biologists, engineers, and computational scientists, you will design experiments that translate fundamental reproductive biology into experimentally testable systems that inform platform development for ex utero gestation. This is a highly hands-on role for a scientist with deep expertise in endometrial biology who is excited to apply mechanistic insight toward building next-generation reproductive technologies in a fast-paced, collaborative startup environment.
What you need
- PhD in Reproductive Biology, Developmental Biology, Cell Biology, Molecular Biology, or a related field, or 5+ years of relevant academic or industry experience Demonstrated expertise in endometrial biology, implantation biology, or maternal–fetal interface research Hands-on experience with mammalian cell culture and endometrial model systems (primary cells, stromal/epithelial co-culture, or organoids) Strong understanding of decidualization, endometrial receptivity, and peri-implantation developmental processes Experience designing and executing mechanistic biological experiments independently Excellent organizational skills and attention to experimental rigor Ability to work collaboratively in an interdisciplinary research environment Enthusiasm for mission-driven science within a fast-paced startup setting

About us
e184 is a biotechnology research company dedicated to overcoming the limits of human biology. One of our programs in reproductive technologies develops ectogenesis - the ability to support human development outside the body - to expand reproductive freedom and redefine what is possible in medicine. Our mission is to remove the biological constraints that limit who can safely carry a pregnancy, enabling new pathways to parenthood for individuals facing medical risk, infertility, or physiological barriers to gestation.
We operate at the intersection of biology, engineering, and computational science, building integrated platforms that combine advanced tissue models, adaptive culture systems, and automated experimental workflows to understand and recreate the conditions required for healthy human gestation beyond the uterus.
