We are excited to partner with a startup that is building out the infrastructure for the next generation bioreactors and operating systems that will industrialize cultivated meats.

The technology platform is a combination of hardware (industrial scale) and software with advanced sensors and model-based controls that allow for intelligence decision making and the ability to efficiently operate a large facility with a small team.

We are seeking a Mechanical Engineer with 2+ years of large steel pressure vessel experience.

This is a great opportunity for an entrepreneurial, self-motivated individual who thrives in a fast-paced, creative environment. The position entails working with a multidisciplinary team as part of a new product development cycle, which includes developing concepts and taking them from initial design and prototyping through commercialization. You will:

• Design novel bioreactor production systems (e.g., vessel design, agitation systems, sparger) for large scale production of cultivated meat (cell growth, tissue formation) using SolidWorks, in collaboration with fellow engineers.
• Generate P&ID, PFD, and GA output based on internally-developed designs
• Participate in the translation of user and functional requirements to design specification, concepts and directions
• Create / maintain piping arrangement drawings (Top assembly and Piping module) using P&ID and customer specifications consisting of however not limited to; 3D models, detail drawings, & bill of materials
• Conduct model design reviews with both internal resources as well as externally with customers and project managers
• Optimize bioreactor design by applying experimental techniques
• Collaborate with a diverse group of experts in the space, including process scientists, automation engineers, and end users

• BS or MS in mechanical engineering or other relevant field
• 3+ years work experience in a relevant field
• Experience in CAD design, PFD, GA, and P&ID development, and equipment sizing and specification

Nice to Have

• 2+ years of experience in vessel or process equipment design a plus (cell culture process equipment beneficial)
• Knowledge of safety and quality standards in food and/or pharmaceutical equipment
• Experience with designing or implementing aseptic systems and connections
