The posting

Until is a moonshot company building a “pause button” for biology. Our near-term focus is organ-scale reversible cryopreservation: preserving donated organs at subzero temperatures without ice formation, then rewarming them uniformly for transplant. By solving this grand challenge, we’re laying the foundation for whole-body reversible cryopreservation, giving patients a bridge to future cures.

To achieve our goal, we are assembling an interdisciplinary team to develop perfusion systems, cryoprotectant formulations, and vitrification and rewarming hardware.

We envision a future where no transplantable organ is lost to logistics, and no terminal diagnosis is final because patients can safely wait for future medicine to arrive.

About the Role

You Will

  • Coordinate the screening team’s day-to-day work, plan experiments, mentor team members, and ensure timely delivery of screening milestones.
  • Manage and improve the screening workflow from cell-culture readiness and HTS assay execution through data analysis, quality control, and interpretation.
  • Increase screening throughput and reproducibility in partnership with automation engineers while maintaining biological relevance and data quality.
  • Design and execute functional assays to characterize cellular responses following cryoprotectant exposure.
  • Develop and validate mechanism-of-action assays to identify drivers of toxicity and guide the design of less-toxic formulations.
  • Improve the integration of renal, cardiac, and hepatic cell models using primary cells or iPSC-derived cells into the screening pipeline.
  • Use chromatography and mass spectrometry to assess the purity of compounds used in cryoprotectant screening.
  • Analyze multiparametric datasets, prioritize findings for follow-up, and communicate actionable recommendations to colleagues developing cryoprotectant formulations.

You Are

  • Trained at the PhD level in Toxicology, Pharmacology, Cell Biology, Physiology, Bioengineering, Chemical Engineering, Tissue Engineering, or a related field, or bring equivalent expertise through at least four years of relevant experience managing research projects end to end.
  • Experienced in independently designing, executing, and improving cell-based high-throughput screening workflows.
  • Skilled in assay development using primary cells or iPSC-derived cells, with experience in at least one renal, cardiac, or hepatic model.
  • Experienced in developing mechanistic assays and translating screening results into testable hypotheses about cellular toxicity.
  • Comfortable working hands-on with plate-based assays, imaging, flow cytometry, and analytical chemistry methods such as HPLC, LC-MS, or GC-MS for compound purity assessment.
  • Experienced in quantitative analysis of screening data, including quality control, statistical interpretation, and analysis of multiple experimental readouts.
  • Able to coordinate and mentor a scientific team, manage interdependent workflows, and take responsibility for experimental execution and outcomes.
  • Collaborative, receptive to diverse perspectives, and comfortable adapting priorities in a fast-paced, mission-driven research environment.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience scaling automated screening workflows in close partnership with lab automation engineers.
  • Experience integrating iPSC-derived cells or advanced 3D models into high-throughput screening pipelines.
  • Experience with high-content imaging, transcriptomics, or other approaches that connect cellular phenotypes to mechanisms of toxicity.
  • Proficiency in Python or R for analysis, visualization, and interpretation of complex screening datasets.
  • Experience relating compound purity measurements to biological assay results.

Benefits

  • Generous medical, dental and vision insurance coverage
  • Flexible time off and paid holidays
  • Competitive compensation package, including salary and equity
  • Access to a 401(k) retirement savings plan
  • FSA and commuter benefits
  • Daily lunch and dinners, plus a variety of snacks
  • Monthly learning stipend
  • On-site fitness center
  • Quarterly team social budget

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
