We're looking for a Bioprocess Engineer to join our awesome team.

You will join our Bioprocessing team in London, developing operations to support the production of cultivated fat. Working alongside brilliant engineers, biologists, and mathematicians, you will build novel protocols and technologies to drive our progress towards large-scale manufacture.

At every step, you'll play a huge role in shaping the future of a dynamic startup.

As a Bioprocess Engineer, you will work within our scale-up team to improve our production process and get our technology ready for our next manufacturing facility.

• Multiple bench-scale and pilot-scale bioreactor formats
• Large-scale production of mammalian or fermentation-derived products
• Large-scale sterile media preparation
• R&D project management
• Electronic Laboratory Notebooks (ELNs) and Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS)
