Research Associate (Organ Perfusion)

At Cradle, we are optimistic that human whole-body reversible cryopreservation is solvable. We’ve built a world-class multidisciplinary team and raised $48M to tackle this problem.

We are a research company pushing against the boundaries of biology, chemistry, engineering, and physics to developing groundbreaking cryopreservation technologies. Our transplant organ protocol will enable indefinite organ storage so every donated organ can save a life. Ultimately, whole-body reversible cryopreservation will let patients pause biological time until cures for fatal diseases exist. Candidates will join an ambitious founding team with infrastructure, engineering talent, and operational support beyond what’s possible in academia.

We are seeking an experienced and dedicated full-time Research Associate to join our whole organ preservation team. As Research Associate, you will play a vital role in the scientific progress of our research program. The primary focus of this role is on developing organ perfusion protocols, with an emphasis on organ isolation, preservation, and viability evaluation. The person in this role is encouraged to take on significant ownership of specific technical challenges.

You will have the opportunity to collaborate with scientists and engineers across the company on variety of methods inspired by first principles of biology, physics, and chemistry. Creative scientific engagement is encouraged, and new avenues for discovery and optimization are continuously supported.

We look forward to reviewing your application and having you join our team at Cradle as we embark on the journey of scientific discovery.
