The exciting world of scientific research is fueled by people with a passion for solving complex problems. At Cayuse, we are committed to our customers’ success by empowering organizations to conduct globally connected research that advances their impact on science, discovery and society. We build on that commitment with proven, integrated and easy-to-use technology that delivers exceptional value, and world class service and support that accelerates outcomes.

But we are more than just an empowering platform powered by advanced technologies. We are a collaboration of exceptional, highly skilled people with multi-disciplinary expertise, and are building our team to support our ambitious growth plans.

• Participate in backlog refinement, sprint planning, product reviews, testing, and release activities.
• Support the team in ensuring that delivered functionality addresses defined customer and business objectives.

• Familiarity with APIs, integrations, databases, or software development concepts.
• Interest in AI and emerging technologies and their potential application to enterprise products
