About the Job

Requirements

  • A track record of building or scaling manufacturing functions, ideally in a fast-moving hardware, laboratory automation, or regulated manufacturing environment.
  • Deep hands-on manufacturing engineering ability, including facility design, process development and scale-up, equipment and process qualification (IQ/OQ/PQ), and root-cause problem solving on the manufacturing floor.
  • A strong grasp of manufacturing economics, including cost of goods sold ownership, unit-cost modelling, capital and operating expenditure, and make-versus-buy decision-making.
  • Knowledge of good manufacturing practice and regulations such as ISO 13485 and cleanroom manufacturing, or demonstrated ability to learn them quickly.
  • Experience managing suppliers and contract manufacturers, including qualification, audits, quality agreements, and negotiating scalable outcomes.
  • Fluency with enterprise resource planning and manufacturing resource planning systems for manufacturing and capacity planning, and comfort using statistical process control, design of experiments, yield analysis, and cost of poor quality data to make decisions.
  • Ability to lead a team while staying technical and building capability rather than dependency.

Responsibilities

  • Own and continuously improve the manufacture of automation systems and consumables, increasing volume while improving yield and quality and reducing cost and lead time.
  • Track and actively reduce cost of goods sold, model unit economics, and develop and implement large capital and operating expenditure strategies.
  • Bring new products into stable manufacturing smoothly and on schedule.
  • Lead planning, build-out, and setup of greenfield manufacturing facilities.
  • Recruit, line-manage, and develop the manufacturing team so each person grows in scope, skill, and independence.
  • Own how the company manufactures its systems and consumables and ensure reliable, fast, scalable production to customer and regulatory standards.
  • Contribute to manufacturing strategy while remaining hands-on and working directly with engineering and company leadership, sales, finance, and planning to support the commercial roadmap.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience across both electromechanical assembly and sterile or good manufacturing practice plastics manufacturing is a strong plus.

About the Company

Mytos

Automated scalable human cell manufacturing platform

Mytos.bio provides automated, end-to-end manufacturing for human cell types used in biotech. It sells and supports its proprietary Mytos Platform, which combines robotics and software to run cell culture processes without needing more staff. This turns traditional artisanal cell culture into scalable, repeatable production for large biotech firms working on cell therapies and drug development. The system works by integrating automated equipment and software workflows that manage culture, monitoring, and quality control, enabling consistent, high-quality cells at scale. Compared with competitors, Mytos.bio emphasizes a turnkey, scalable infrastructure that reduces headcount while delivering uniform results, backed by a team of hardware and software engineers and biologists, and recognition as a YCombinator alumnus and Forbes 30 Under 30. Its goal is to make large-scale cell production reliable and cost-effective so biopharma companies can accelerate therapies and drug development.
