Biolyz is a full-stack saliva-based biomarker testing company on a mission to accelerate access to biomarker analytics for all humans, globally. We offer a non-invasive testing solution whereby athletes and coaches simply use a cotton swab to collect saliva, which we analyze via mass spectrometry within 48 hours across 60+ biomarkers covering stress, recovery, metabolism, and inflammation. Our platform delivers real-time, hyper-personalized insights directly to coaches and athletes. Having tested over 2.5 million biomarkers across teams in the Champions League, Bundesliga, Premier League and Ligue 1 and other sports, Biolyz has powered the best athletes in their field.
This internship sits at the intersection of science and commercial strategy. As a Business & Medical Development Intern, you'll work alongside the founding team to help Biolyz expand into new sports clubs, leagues, clinical networks, and institutional partnerships.
