Senior🎓
Top SchoolJens Plassmeier is a biotechnology and technology executive with over a decade of experience leading synthetic biology, strain engineering, and automation teams to accelerate AI-enabled biologics discovery. Currently VP of Technology at Ohalo, he previously scaled discovery platforms and biomaterials programs in senior leadership roles at Absci, Conagen, and BASF after postdoctoral and research scientist work at MIT. He combines deep molecular genetics training (PhD) with hands-on experience building automated strain engineering pipelines and cross-functional platforms that bridge R&D and productization. Known for pragmatic scaling of lab automation and AI workflows, he repeatedly advances technologies from proof-of-concept to commercial-ready programs. Based in South San Francisco, he pairs academic rigor with industry execution and a candid, self-deprecating curiosity—evident from his GitHub bio—about learning through building.
