Volta Labs, Inc.

Volta Labs is a genomics applications company that has developed a cutting-edge digital fluidics platform to maximize performance and scalability of sample preparation in genomics while providing unparalleled consistency. Volta is transforming the way biological research and analyses are performed, allowing scientists to focus on what they do best -- pushing the boundaries of biology.

As a collective of scientists and builders working at the intersection of engineering and biology, we imagine a world where extracting vital information from biological samples is as simple as pressing a button. That's our vision, and we're turning it into reality.

Our HQ is in Boston’s Seaport, where we develop and manufacture our technology. We believe in cross-functional collaboration and continuous learning – whether your interest is in biology, MechEng, CompEng, or simply joining a fast-growing startup striving to make the world a better place, we'd love to welcome you to our team. Check out some of our blog posts to learn more about work life at Volta.

We are in the midst of a genomic revolution. What the entire world could not do two decades ago — sequence a human genome — today a scientist can do on a bench. The adoption of sequencing technologies is only increasing exponentially.

Despite these advancements, preparing samples for sequencing remains a bottleneck. Today’s scientists are held back by existing solutions for sample preparation. We believe that disruptive innovations are needed in sample prep technologies to unlock the true utility of genomics.

Volta is building a sequencing technology agnostic platform that spans from the raw biological sample to sequenceable molecules. We are reinventing the full stack — hardware, software, chemistry, and biology — to create simple, flexible, and powerful solutions for sample preparation and beyond.
