Supervisor, Tissue Engineering Development

California, US residents .The job details are as follows:

Who We Are We are the first publicly-traded biotech or pharmaceutical company to take the form of a public benefit corporation. Our public benefit purpose is to provide a brighter future for patients through the development of novel pharmaceutical therapies; and technologies that expand the availability of transplantable organs.

United Therapeutics (Nasdaq: UTHR) seeks to travel down the corridors of indifference to develop treatments for rare, deadly diseases. We were founded in 1996 by a family seeking a cure for their daughter’s pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Today, we have six FDA-approved therapies that treat PAH, pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD) and neuroblastoma, a rare pediatric cancer. Our near-term pipeline seeks to develop additional therapies for PAH and pulmonary fibrosis (PF).The

cure for end-stage life-threatening diseases like PAH, PH-ILD, PF, and many others is an organ transplant, but only a small percentage of donated organs are available to address the vast need. For this reason, we are working to create manufactured organs to address the shortage of kidneys, hearts, lungs, and livers available for transplant. We believe an unlimited supply of tolerable, transplantable organs will eliminate the transplant waiting list and cure end-stage organ diseases for which transplant is not currently an option.

Who you areThis is an opportunity to lead at the forefront of tissue engineering while making a meaningful impact on the future of medicine. As a Supervisor in Tissue Engineering Development, you’ll guide and mentor a talented team executing complex, hands‑on bioprocesses that support groundbreaking work in regenerative medicine and organ manufacturing. You’ll combine scientific expertise with people leadership—shaping experiments, improving processes, and driving operational excellence in a fast‑paced, highly collaborative lab environment.

If you’re ready to step into a leadership role where your technical judgment, organizational skills, and ability to develop others directly contribute to life‑saving innovation, this is a place where your experience will truly matter.

Supervise the assembly and recellularization bioprocess execution teams with research efforts to support the development of tissue-based regenerative medicine products for the treatment of pulmonary hypertension and other lung diseases.

Coordinate and organize the execution of experiments using human and non-human organs, tissues, and cells, ensuring activities are planned, scheduled, and aligned with study needs

Operate in-house lung recellularization systems in novel ways while leading process development activities and identifying opportunities to improve current processes

Maintain in-depth knowledge to perform routine tasks and analytical assays, including non-standard or complex aspects, with little to no instruction, and provide guidance to staff on deviations from defined procedures while filling in, as needed

Supervise a team in the execution of tissue engineering cultures and the assembly of tubing, bioreactors, and specialized materials, providing technical guidance, prioritizing tasks, organizing schedules, leading training, and ensuring quality of outputs to support research activities across the lab Utilize project management skills to plan and schedule experiments, coordinate equipment and personnel availability, manage resources, and determine feasibility and timelines for completion using independent judgement

Regularly review and analyze team activities and data to improve operational efficiency, including identifying opportunities to perform tasks simultaneously and implementing process improvements

Author and update laboratory procedures and protocols under GLP-like conditions, incorporating process development and operational efficiency improvements, determining when new protocols are needed, and ensuring team awareness

Coordinate technology transfer activities with industrial and academic partners, including addressing knowledge gaps, sharing protocols, and supporting successful transfers
