Oxford Nanopore
56 open jobsGeneral information
Oxford Nanopore makes machines that read DNA and RNA. Its machines pass DNA or RNA through tiny protein channels to read the genetic code inside. MinION is a small, portable sequencer for single samples. GridION is a mid-size sequencing machine for labs. PromethION 2 Integrated is a large benchtop machine for high-volume testing. The company is based in Oxford, in the United Kingdom.
Oxford Nanopore was established in 2005 as a spinoff from Oxford University. It is publicly traded on the London Stock Exchange under the ticker ONT. In 2025 it reported revenue of £223.9 million but an operating loss of £155.3 million. That gap matters for someone weighing a job there: the company is growing but not yet profitable, so its future still depends on new sales and continued investment.
Currently, there's a total of 53 job openings at Oxford Nanopore. Over the last 30 days, 79 jobs were added and 28 were removed (job postings usually stay up ~12 days before being removed). Oxford Nanopore is an H-1B sponsor.1
