Description

About Multiply Labs Multiply Labs is a cutting-edge startup based in San Francisco, California, supported by top-tier tech and life science investors such as Casdin Capital, Lux Capital, and Y Combinator. We are revolutionizing the manufacturing of cell therapies by developing advanced robotic systems designed to automate and scale the production of these life-saving treatments. Our robots empower biopharma companies to produce cell therapies at scale without significantly changing their existing processes, reducing regulatory barriers and risks. While traditional approaches are time-consuming and lead to extremely high costs for patients (typically $1M+ per patient), using robotics can make these transformative treatments more accessible and affordable to patients in need.

You can also read our latest peer-reviewed study, which highlights the statistical equivalence between manual and automated cell expansion processes, at cytotherapy.org. As a Staff Mechanical Engineer in the Multiply Labs team, you will apply your engineering expertise and technical leadership skills to design complex automated machinery involved in the manufacturing of novel pharmaceutical products. You’ll be working directly with a cross functional hardware and software team on designing and building the current and next generations of Multiply Labs’ robotic systems. This ranges across designing and selecting robotic equipment, determining high level design goals and objectives, building prototypes and taking them to production. You’ll succeed in the role if you can optimize design using first principle engineering approaches. We have a mix of projects running simultaneously. You will need great documentation skills and ability to organize thoughts and ideas into actions in order to drive decision making conversations on major projects while coordinating with colleagues. \n Responsibilities High level ownership of system design of machine and robotic design Lead concept ideation phases with strong fundamentals Detailed CAD work Investigation of applicable technologies and components Prototyping, testing, and iterating designs Generation of supporting design documentation Oversight in a transition to production manufacturing for completed design Responsible for analysis of designs including deflections, tolerance stack ups, load capacity, and material compatibility. Responsibilities may also include controls and actuator sizing, interfacing, integration, and testing. Proficiency with 3D CAD software, including modeling and creation of detailed drawings. Extensive mechanical design experience developing production ready machine and/or designs from basic ideas and concepts, including starting from a ‘blank sheet’. Proven ability to solve complex technical problems by breaking them down into simpler pieces and executable tasks. Extensive knowledge of mechanical components, common engineering metals, plastics, joining methods, part fabrication methods, and finishing operations. Extensive experience optimizing manufacturability of assemblies using DFM/DFA principles Experience transferring designs to external suppliers and contract manufacturers for production Qualifications Bachelors of Science in Mechanical Engineering or related field Experience designing and building automated production machinery Industrial experience developing robot EOATs, work cell fixtures, or material handling systems Working knowledge of GD&T standards 6-8+ years experience mechanical design engineering Nice to Have Experience with FDA and/or EMA regulated industries Experience designing machine power distribution and automation grade control cabinets.
