About Biomemory

Global data creation is exploding. Only 30% of the world's data is durably stored. Data centers already consume around 2% of global electricity. As volumes double every few years, the silicon-based storage model is reaching structural limits.

Biomemory is a global pioneer in the DNA data storage market. Biomemory develops IT-friendly DNA Data Storage and cybersecurity solutions engineered for data center environments.

Our interoperable, modular architecture combines biosecure DNA media, industrialized end-to-end write/store/read processes, and interoperable IT interface to create a new storage tier optimized for density, longevity and operational efficiency.

Headquartered in Paris, Biomemory aims to serve the fast-growing international cold storage market.

About the role

As a Talent Acquisition & People Specialist, your primary objective will be to grow Biomemory's teams by recruiting the talent the company needs, while providing broader HR support across the employee lifecycle 🤝.

You report directly to the Head of People, and join a People team composed of the Head of People, an Office Manager and a Talent Acquisition Specialist.

The role will require :

• versatility,
• administrative rigor,
• and the ability to work across several HR topics in parallel, in an environment where not everything is fully formalized yet.

Your day-to-day responsibilities :

• Recruitment : sourcing, screening and candidate follow-up alongside the current Talent Acquisition Specialist, defining hiring needs with managers;
• Onboarding & talent management: building and improving the onboarding journey, following up on talent, structuring career paths;
• HR administrative support: drafting employment contracts, tracking and renewing probation periods;
• Payroll backup: occasional support to Thibaut (Head of People) and the Office Manager (Catherine) on payroll topics, without owning this area.

These responsibilities are given as a guide : we're looking for people who can adapt quickly to new topics and priorities.

About you

You are a versatile, curious profile, comfortable with ambiguity. You recognize yourself, or your future self, in the following :

• Pluridisciplinary. Recruitment, onboarding, HR administration, some payroll exposure — you'd rather cover several topics than specialize in just one;
• Organized. You can manage several files in parallel with method, without dropping any of them;
• Open-minded. Topics you don't master yet don't hold you back — you learn fast, on the job;
• Startup-ready. You know things aren't always 100% structured, and you adapt accordingly;
• Bilingual. You are comfortable speaking and writing in both French and English;
• Employee-experience oriented. Candidate experience matters as much to you as employee experience.
• Tools nice to know: LinkedIn Recruiter & other job boards, PayFit, Gusto (HRIS USA), Odoo

It's OK if you don't tick every box. We're building a team with varied levels of experience (2 to 6 years): if you're talented and motivated, we'd still like to hear from you.

And if you...

• Have already worked in a startup or a fast-growing environment;
• Have already combined recruitment with generalist HR experience;
• Are curious about deeptech or the scientific world;

... then you definitely should consider applying. 🚀

Good to know

The position is based in Paris, at our office at 5 Impasse Reille. The space combines offices with laboratory rooms, designed to foster collaboration between IT and biology teams.

Biomemory provides benefits beyond French legal requirements, to support the well-being of its employees and enable them to best contribute to the company's success. Details will be shared after the first interview.
