This is an ambitious early-stage team revolutionizing sustainable agriculture by developing cutting-edge in vitro plant cell culture methods to produce cotton and other essential crops. Our mission is to redefine how we grow these products, achieving faster production cycles that use significantly less land, water, and energy. With a sharp focus on addressing global environmental challenges, we’re building innovative, resource-efficient alternatives to conventional agricultural practices.


This is a collaborative, inclusive environment where science, technology, and sustainability intersect. You’ll join a passionate team dedicated to advancing cellular agriculture through creative problem-solving, rigorous research, and cross-functional teamwork—all while driving meaningful change in the way we produce the resources the world relies on.

  • Equipment Design, Validation, and Maintenance: Select and validate equipment needed for production, ensuring compliance with regulations. This includes creating testing and maintenance protocols and training junior staff.
  • Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and Compliance: Ensure that manufacturing practices meet regulatory standards, leading audits and compliance training for the team.
  • Risk Management and Issue Resolution: Identify and manage project risks, develop methods to resolve challenges, and coach the team on safety and risk mitigation practices.
  • Continuous Improvement and Process Optimization: Review completed projects to identify improvements, using data insights to enhance both project management and engineering workflows.


Key Competencies

  • Engineering Excellence: Strong knowledge of bioreactor systems and process scaling.
  • Agile and Scrum Proficiency: Familiarity with Agile principles, ideally certified in PMP or Scrum, to lead projects in an engineering environment.
  • Risk Management: Ability to foresee and mitigate operational risks.
