About us
At the forefront of farming and food, UPSIDE Foods is innovating new ways to produce real meat, without the need to breed, feed and slaughter animals. Our process begins with an animal cell, which is cultivated and harvested as meat. The founding company of the industry, UPSIDE Foods is a mission-driven organization focused on bringing to meat lovers an authentic product that is truly humane, sustainably produced, nutritious and delicious! We are now expanding our team of dedicated professionals across disciplines to make better meat for a better world.
About this job
UPSIDE is seeking a highly motivated Engineer to help develop bioreactor processes for the cultivation of cultivated meat. As a member of the Process Development team, this person will develop novel fed-batch and perfusion bioreactor processes using scale-down benchtop platforms for transfer into the Manufacturing group. Your scientific and operational expertise will lend itself to independent experimental design, execution, and analysis of experiments. A portion of your effort will also be directed towards the design, troubleshooting, and validation of new experimental methodologies.
This interdisciplinary work within a talented team will contribute to the knowledge base of a novel industry and bring cultivated meat to large-scale manufacturing. The ideal candidate will have a history of integrating 2D or 3D cell culture with bioreactor systems (e.g. microfluidics, perfusion), as well as a working knowledge of cell-based assays (e.g. microscopy, gene expression)). A thorough understanding of the mechanisms and impacts of environmental stimuli (e.g. growth factors, hypoxia, mechanotransduction) on cell behavior will be critical to success. We are excited to bring on a diligent self-starter who thrives in a fast-paced team with numerous opportunities for growth.
