Miromatrix’ mission is to eliminate the organ transplant waiting list by bioengineering transplantable organs to bring lifesaving technology to all those in need of a transplantable organ.

Miromatrix, Inc. is a biotechnology and regenerative medicine pioneer that discovers, develops, and delivers innovative, award winning biotherapies. We are currently developing bioengineered liver technology to provide therapy for patients suffering from acute and chronic liver failure, with similar programs for a bioengineered kidney. Our progress to date was recently recognized as a 2019 Buzz of BIO for Pipelines of Promise, through successful grant funding from the National Institutes of Health and publication of results in Nature Biomedical Engineering for the Liver Program, and as a KidneyX prize winner for redesigning dialysis.

We continue to build our organization and development teams. Miromatrix has an immediate opening for a highly motivated Process Development Engineer interested in joining our Organ Bio-Engineering Program in a fast-paced, team and results-oriented work environment. We are looking for a talented Process Engineer to assist in the development and maintenance of control systems that will enable production of novel bioengineered organs. This engineering leader would define and develop manufacturing process for bio-engineered transplantable organs. The position involves knowledge in hydraulic, pneumatic and electrical system design.
