About the company:
Prolific Machines is on a mission to accelerate the transition to sustainable agriculture. We believe that we have the only solution to make cultured meat at a price that is competitive with factory farming. We are looking for mission-driven, skilled, and kind people to help create the alternative we need to transition to a more sustainable and healthy future.
Diversity: We value diverse people, perspectives, and knowledge. To this end, we aim to foster a sense of belonging that enables everyone to bring their whole, authentic self to work everyday. We are committed to growing a diverse and inclusive team that encompasses all types of people. We believe this can only be achieved by acknowledging the ancestral, historic, and current systemic and communal inequities.
Role Description
We are looking for a mission-driven individual to manage our technical projects.

You are ultimately responsible for holding project leads accountable to these timelines.
You serve as a bridge between cross-functional project teams, senior leadership, and the broader team to ensure consistent, clear, and efficient communication. You ensure issues are surfaced, get clear proposals in place and synthesize key enterprise decisions required. Where needed, you’ll define containment strategies and set up task forces to keep things moving ahead.
You will assist in the transition from a research focused organization to a commercial organization by focusing resources on core commercial requirements and key projects on the critical path, including but not limited to:
Through personal example, and by setting up processes and systems, you level up the entire team's project management capacity and ensure that risks and opportunities are surfaced promptly. Whilst initially the candidate will be responsible for working independently, we are looking to hire an individual who can scale and manage a team of project managers.
