About Neoplants:
www.neoplants.com
We’re an early stage biotech start-up working on the first generation of bioengineered plants to fight air pollution. Indoor air pollution is up to 5 times higher than outdoors and due to a specific type of pollutants called VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) which are constantly emitted from many things we have indoors (paints on the walls, pieces of furniture, household products). As we spend 90% of our time indoors, chronic exposure to this pollution leads to major health issues (asthma, allergies, cancers) and huge drops in productivity.
We create plants that can effectively capture and “recycle” these pollutants to purify the indoor air. Our longer term ambition is to leverage our technologies for other large scale applications such as carbon capture and storage, in order to fight climate change in a biological and sustainable manner. We are backed by top tier Silicon Valley and European investors and are currently based in Paris, France. We are looking for passionate, ambitious, rigorous and talented individuals to join our
multicultural & multudisciplinary team on its mission: putting nature at the heart of product innovation to drive positive change.

We are at the beginning of a thrilling journey; with amazing growth opportunities. Joining us means being part of our world-class team and having a huge impact on our R&D and the development of our products. You will get to exercise your leadership, critical thinking, project management skills and team spirit by acquiring multiple responsibilities in an ultra fast-moving environment. You will also contribute to the exceptional working environment we are cultivating.

At Neoplants, we aim to rekindle that spark we had in our eyes when we first got into science. If you are as excited as we are about state of the art technologies, exploring uncharted scientific territories, pushing the boundaries of what is conceivable for good,
if you want to transform the way people think about genetics and work on inspiring deep-tech products that have a real positive impact on the environment and people’s lives, join us and help us lead this movement.
