**** 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 Are
** As part of a start-up, new GMP manufacturing facility focused on tissue engineering and biomanufacturing, the Biomanufacturing Associate I, Recellularization Production will support activities related to the production of recellularized lungs for in vitro and in vivo studies to meet departmental and company objectives. This role provides valuable hands-on experience in all aspects of establishing a new GMP manufacturing operation, including the technical transfer of processes from R&D to production readiness.
* Operate bioprocess equipment and perform production processes in strict compliance with cGMP, OSHA, and United Therapeutics (Unither) policies and regulations
* Work as an integral member of the team to support recellularized lung production activities
* Prepare lung scaffolds and reagents for recellularization, including media preparation, cannulation, loading scaffolds into bioreactor chambers, preparing cell suspensions, and assembling tubing circuits
* Monitor recellularization bioreactor systems parameters (e.g., pressure, flow, timing) and biological indicators (e.g., metabolism, nutrient consumption)
* Accurately and promptly record data in batch records, logbooks, and system documentation in accordance with Good Documentation Practices (GDP)
* Perform in-process and end-of-process sampling and testing
* Conduct routine analyses of in-process measurements and recellularization data
* Perform basic troubleshooting of equipment issues or process deviations
* Draft process deviation reports as required
* Present data and process updates in internal team meetings as needed
