Join US - Dermatide

Technical Service Directors/Managers

Are you a cosmetic ingredients professional with a passion for cutting-edge biotechnology

— and a network to match?

Who We are?

Dermatide Biotec is a Singapore-based biotech start-up on a mission to redefine what active ingredients can do for skin and personal care. Our flagship ingredient, AKNETIDE®, is the world’s first antimicrobial cyclopeptide derived from non-GMO Bacillus fermentation — a genuinely novel, science-backed, multi-mechanism active with a compelling story that practically sells itself to the right audience.
And we’re just getting started. 👀 A pipeline of equally exciting bioactive peptides for broader personal care applications is on its way.

What You'll Do

Be the scientific and commercial face of AKNETIDE® (and our pipeline) in your market;
Build and nurture relationships with cosmetic ingredient distributors, formulators, brand R&D teams, and contract manufacturers;
Translate our rich, comprehensive efficacy and safety data into compelling, technically credible conversations;
Identify partnership and distribution opportunities; support business development efforts with local intelligence;
Represent Dermatide Biotec at industry events, trade shows, and customer visits in your region

What We're Looking For

✅ Solid background in biotechnology, cosmetic science, biochemistry, or a related discipline — you need to genuinely understand antimicrobial peptides and what our data means;

✅ Proven track record in technical sales, business development, or technical service within the cosmetic ingredients or specialty chemicals industry;

✅ Deep, active network of cosmetic formulators, ingredient buyers, and distributors in your target market — this is non-negotiable;

✅ Self-driven, entrepreneurial spirit — you thrive with autonomy and know how to open doors;

✅ Excellent communication skills; able to bridge science and commerce fluently;

✅ Fluency in the primary language(s) of your target market is a strong plus, besides proficiency in English.

What We Offer

🌱 Ground-floor opportunity with a genuinely novel, world-first ingredient — you won’t be selling “me-too” products;

🌍 Full remote/work-from-home flexibility;

🤝 A small, experienced, and passionate founding team that punches well above its weight;

📈 Performance-linked attractive compensation with significant upside as the brand grows globally;

🔬 Rich, comprehensive technical dossier and application data to support your conversations — you’ll be well-equipped from day one.

This is not a role for someone looking for a conventional or routine sales job. This is for someone who sees the opportunity in a science-first start-up with a world-class ingredient, and wants to be part of building something truly new in the global cosmetic ingredients space.
If that sounds like you — or someone you know — we’d love to hear from you.
