Scientific Co-Founder

Vor 7 Tagen

Berlin, Berlin, Deutschland OhMyV GmbH Vollzeit 80.000 € - 120.000 € pro Jahr

At OhMyV, we're creating an entirely new sexual health prevention category beyond condoms. We just secured significant R&D funding and have established partnerships with research institutions. Now I need a scientific co-founder who can bridge rigorous science with real-world impact.

What this role actually involves:

This is early-stage startup territory, which means we're tackling scientific challenges that don't have textbook solutions in an industry that's been playing it safe for decades.

I'm looking for someone who approaches complex problems methodically but isn't afraid to think outside conventional frameworks. Someone that is flexible and adaptable to the constant flux of an early stage startup, someone who thrives in unpredictability.

You'd be our scientific leader, translating cutting-edge research into products that genuinely improve people's lives (and yes, their pleasure too).

Tasks

Your responsibilities:

  • Serving as primary scientific liaison with our research institute and other partners
  • Converting research insights into viable product development strategies
  • Leading R&D decisions and technical roadmap development
  • Overseeing product development from proof of concept through market readiness
  • Establishing rigorous testing protocols and validation methodologies
  • Navigating regulatory pathways for innovative sexual health products
Requirements

What you bring:

  • PhD or MSc in Biomedical Engineering, Chemistry, Materials Science or related field
  • Experience translating academic research into commercial applications
  • Medical device development experience (ideal)
  • Entrepreneurial adaptability and resiliency
  • Understanding that sexual health science should be both evidence-based and sex-positive
  • English proficiency required (German is a bonus)
Benefits

What we offer:

  • Substantial co-founder equity position
  • Leading scientific strategy and execution
  • Collaboration with established research institutions
  • Opportunity to pioneer a new product category with global impact potential
  • The chance to do serious science with serious impact that will change people's lives

Location: Berlin/Erfurt (other EU/UK candidates welcome)

We're building products that solve real problems while embracing the fact that sexual health should be pleasurable, not just protective.

If you're ready to apply your scientific excellence to an area that deserves better solutions, and you're comfortable with the intensity of startup life - let's connect

Tell me your story:

What drives your interest in sexual health innovation? Have you experienced the frustration of inadequate solutions personally or professionally? What would solving this problem mean to you beyond the career opportunity? I want to understand not just what you can do, but why this mission matters to you.
