Careers

Our purpose is clear. 

To be the leading provider of synthetic DNA.

But that’s not our end goal. By using our technology to unlock access to genes we aim to bring positive impact to the world by enabling improvements to human health whilst reducing environmental impact.

How we operate is as important as what we achieve

We’re a principles-led company. Our principles act as a guide for how we work together and are striving to be the best we can, both the technology solutions we create and in making Camena a great place to work.

Everyone contributes to developing the principles and they evolve as we grow. They’re one of our most valuable pieces of intellectual property.

Nurturing a culture of high performance in the pursuit of excellence is a journey.

We’ve learnt
how to fail.

We're working on difficult problems. Identifying what went wrong and how to make decisions effectively makes us stronger as a business.

And we’re
always learning.

We’re a team of life-long learners and employ highly skilled people and advisors to hear their opinions. We value honesty and using time and resources wisely.

We learn together
and from each other.

We communicate openly and give and receive thoughtful feedback.  We strive to ensure everyone is heard, understood, and informed.
