Mytos

Mytos builds robots that grow human cells. Our machines take stem cells as input, and grow them into specific cells like neurons or heart cells. Customers use our platform to scale stem-cell derived therapies to more patients sooner. We're also used to produce cells for testing new drugs on during R&D in Drug Discovery. Mytos is backed by leading investors, including YCombinator, Buckley Ventures and IQ Capital - as well as founders and execs from companies like Kite, Sana, Dropbox, and Revolut. Our team is made up of brilliant engineers from companies like Dyson and Autodesk - working hand-in-hand with Nature-published scientists. We're hiring now - visit our website to see open positions

About Us You rarely get the chance to change an entire industry. But that's the position we find ourselves in. Join us, and you’ll unleash scientists, accelerate their research and help get cures to patients sooner.

We’ve developed machines to fully automate human cell production - the most manual process in Biotech. Cells are used to discover and develop new drugs, and now they're being used to cure diseases like Parkinson’s and age-related blindness. Mytos will impact cure development across the board.

We're live in multibillion dollar biotechs on both coasts of the US, and raised $19m to expand into the market faster, and accelerate our development! Next year, neurons grown on our machines will be going into Parkinson patient brains.

We’ve assembled a world-class team to take on this challenge, with ex-Dyson engineers and Nature-published scientists working hand-in-hand. You can learn more about your potential Mytos teammates here: Team

Mytos is backed by Y Combinator, the most successful startup program in the world which produced companies such as AirBnb, Dropbox, and Ginkgo Bioworks.

You are an ambitious person with a strong passion for electronics and science. You have a master's degree in electrical engineering (or similar) and you are ready to embark on your career together with us.

Role and responsibilities

You will be a part of the development team designing and testing the electronics hardware found in our product. You will work among and assist highly skilled engineers across several disciplines, being a part of the development process from start to finish. You will tackle robotics and control challenges, work with cutting-edge sensors and actuators and help us unlock features that future-proof our devices.

We’d love to hear from you if:

You are passionate about electronics
You are self-driven and are interested in the challenge of learning new skills
You have driven schematic capture and PCB design work using Altium or similar software
You understand the challenges of mixed-signal designs
You have some programming experience: C/C++ and Python

It would be nice if you:

Have demonstrated experience working with firmware for embedded systems, either in a professional or personal project capacity
Have experience with simulating your designs using LTSpice or similar software

Salary and Benefits:

Competitive salary with stock options
Lunch covered daily
Collaborative team environment with very high potential to learn new skills
24 days holiday (excluding bank holidays)
Pension
Awesome colleagues and an office in the Imperial College Innovation hub in White City, where you’ll be based.
Because of the HW device aspect of this role, we are unable to support remote-first working and potential colleagues must be happy to work from our lab

We’re building a team that enjoys moving fast and not killing cells, strives for continuous improvement through learning from mistakes and is passionate about work that contributes to solving real world problems. We learn together, grow together and solve hard problems together.

We get excited about meeting potential colleagues who share our enthusiasm for unconstrained innovation and understanding our users.
