Albert helps chemists change the world by building technology that understands how they work. As chemists ourselves, we know whatit’slike when softwaredoesn’twork the way you do — stuck with systems built by people who never spent a dayatthe bench.That’swhy we created Albert OS, the first AI-native operating system for materials science, designed to remove every obstacle between curiosity and discovery.
We're looking for a Lead Integrations Engineer to own that work. This is a high-impact, cross-functional role that blends architecture, hands-on engineering, and direct partner engagement. You'll lead technical discovery sessions, design system interfaces, mentor engineers, and deliver integrations that scale with the scientific ambitions of our partners.
If you are passionate about cutting-edge technology and thrive in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment, we want to hear from you.
What you'll do
Architect enterprise-grade integrations between Albert's microservices-based platform and partner systems including ERP, PLM, LIMS, ELN, regulatory, and lab automation tools.
Lead technical design and delivery of integration projects from requirements discovery through architecture, implementation, and go-live.
Design and own webhook and event-driven pipelines , including delivery guarantees, retry logic, and async job processing patterns that hold up at enterprise scale.
Build and maintain SDKs and integration frameworks that give partner developers a fast, reliable path to connecting with Albert OS.
Own multi-tenant security at the integration layer , including encryption, tenant isolation, keyless deployment, and access control standards (OAuth2, SAML, JWT, SSO).
Mentor a team of integration engineers , fostering best practices in secure design, code quality, and observability.
Work directly with partner technical teams to translate scientific and operational needs into scalable, maintainable technical solutions.
Collaborate with Product, Security, and Infrastructure to maintain compliance with Albert's enterprise standards (ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR).
You will have 5+ years in software engineering or integrations within enterprise SaaS environments.
Proven success leading partner-facing technical projects involving APIs, data synchronization, or system orchestration.
Expertise in Python or Node.js, RESTful and event-driven architectures, and AWS technologies (ECS, DynamoDB, KMS, Lambda, EventBridge).
Strong command of async processing patterns including queues, retries, idempotency, and failure handling in distributed systems.
Experience designing and shipping SDKs or developer-facing APIs with a focus on usability and long-term maintainability.
Deep understanding of multi-tenant security including data isolation, encryption at rest and in transit, and keyless deployment.
Familiarity with authentication and access control standards: OAuth2, SAML, JWT, SSO.
Experience with middleware or API gateways such as Mulesoft, Apache Camel, or AWS EventBridge.
Excellent communication skills, with the ability to move comfortably between business, scientific, and engineering audiences.
Experience in the chemical, materials, or life sciences industries is a significant plus.
