Scismic is supporting the growth of a biotech company that is building an in-house automation team for the production of their biological testing platforms. They are looking for an experienced engineer with a background in automation and general mechatronic design. 

The company is accelerating drug discovery by providing safety and efficacy testing of chemicals and novel therapeutics for the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food industries using its patented, Human-on-a-Chip platform. Bringing together biologists, surface chemists, and engineers, our team is producing some of the world’s most advanced organs-on-a-chip platforms. From gene expression to electrophysiology, we recreate key components of organs in an interconnected, functional system. Chemically patterned microchips enable real-time, non-invasive monitoring of organ activity where we use sophisticated measurement techniques to detect minute changes. This breakthrough technology enables unprecedented visibility into specific disease states and how the human body will respond to treatment - something that previously required costly animal testing and human trials to determine. As a functional, interconnected, human surrogate, their Human-on-a-Chip provides preclinical insight into the efficacy and toxicity of novel therapeutics. This role will be self-driven and requires an applicant who takes joy in implementing and learning about automation technology. 

We are an Equal Opportunity Employer with a commitment to diversity. All individuals, regardless of personal characteristics, are encouraged to apply. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, or veteran status.
