Full TimeRemoteTeam 201-500

About BioRender BioRender is the world's leading visual science communication platform, used by over a million scientists to create figures, presentations, and visual content that moves research forward. We exist because how science is communicated visually matters — it shapes understanding, drives discovery, and determines whether research reaches the people who need it. Every product decision we make is grounded in that belief. About This Role We're building a dedicated team of formally trained medical illustrators and animators — a new function at BioRender that will serve as the company's subject matter experts on scientific visual communication. This team will have direct impact across product, marketing, sales, and education, and will own the quality standard for how science is represented across everything we build. This is not a production role. You'll be expected to think critically about how science is represented visually, contribute perspective on product and design decisions, and set the bar for what scientists see when they use BioRender. What You'll Work On - Motion graphics and animation for feature launches, product marketing, social media, and sales enablement - Scientific figures, templates, and visual content that define BioRender's quality standard - Live product demos for sales calls, conferences, and webinars — building figures in real time while articulating the design reasoning behind them - Educational content including tutorials, learning modules, and onboarding materials for researchers at every level - Icon design and visual systems — creating new icons, defining style direction, and maintaining quality during library-wide updates - Visual QA and scientific accuracy reviews across templates, AI-generated outputs, and library content - Identifying patterns in how scientists build figures — breaking down what makes a great figure in each discipline so we can standardize and productize that knowledge, making it easier for every researcher to create work they're proud of - Contributing to product decisions where illustration expertise matters — including how AI-generated scientific visuals should look and behave What We're Looking For - Graduate degree in Medical Illustration, Biomedical Visualization, or a closely related program - Strong foundation in anatomy, molecular biology, or a relevant scientific discipline - Demonstrated skill in both static illustration and motion graphics / animation - Ability to look at a scientific figure and know whether it tells the right story — not just whether it's technically correct - A formed point of view on design decisions, with the ability to articulate your reasoning - Instinct for how a scientist or researcher would perceive and use visual content — you think like the audience before the audience thinks - Comfort with ambiguity — you can break down a problem you've never seen and find an approach without a playbook - Ability to explain complex visual and scientific concepts to non-experts clearly and compellingly What Makes This Role Unique BioRender was founded by a medical illustrator because scientific visual communication deserves better tools. This team is an extension of that conviction. You'll be joining at a foundational moment — this function is new, and you'll have real influence over how it takes shape. In the first several months, you'll work across multiple areas — animation, demos, education, visual systems — before the team evolves based on individual strengths and company needs. There is significant room to grow into specialized or leadership roles as the team matures. If you care about the impact that clear, accurate, and beautiful scientific visuals can have on research and education, this is the role. Details - Remote-first, with the team coming together in person at least once per quarter - Competitive salary and equity - Opportunity to define a new function at a high-growth company
