Engineering Technician

About Us

Mytos is on a mission to change an entire industry. We unleash scientists, accelerate their research, and help bring cures to patients sooner. Our machines fully automate human cell production – the most manual process in biotech – enabling drugs to be discovered, developed, and now used in therapies for Parkinson’s and age‑related blindness. Mytos impacts cure development across the board.

We’re live in multibillion‑dollar biotechs on both US coasts, have raised $19 M to expand faster, and aim to deploy neurons grown on our machines into Parkinson patient brains next year. Our world‑class team of ex‑Dyson engineers and Nature‑published scientists works hand‑in‑hand.
Team members include two Forbes 30‑Under‑30 founders, rock climbers, and more. We are backed by Y Combinator, the startup program that produced Airbnb, Dropbox, and Ginkgo Bioworks.
