Retro develops therapies for diseases driven by the biology of aging. We focus on cellular reprogramming and autophagy to broadly improve tissue function by targeting mechanisms of aging with the ultimate aim of adding 10 years to healthy human lifespan.

We’re building a mission-driven team of accomplished and kind individuals who embrace our startup culture of rapid iteration, transparency, and versatility.

We are hiring a new member of the Microglia Therapeutics team* who will help us ramp toward manufacturing readiness. In the near term, this role will focus on hands-on execution of cell culture and manufacturing-related activities in support of GMP readiness and production. Over time, as manufacturing operations become established, this person may also contribute more broadly to process development activities. 

You are a thoughtful, hands-on team member who likes making complicated things work in the real world. You bring strong experience with iPSC-derived cell types and understand the care, consistency, and discipline required to work with live cell products. You move fast, sweat the details, and do not see speed and rigor as opposites. You are comfortable with repetitive, SOP-driven work and take pride in doing it with consistency and care, while also staying curious, noticing when something is off, and looking for ways to help the team and process work better. You are organized, collaborative, and low-ego, and you are willing to jump in where needed to help the team succeed. You communicate clearly, take ownership of your work, and are excited to help move the mission forward.

We take pride in cultivating an environment that fosters collaboration, open communication, and authenticity. We believe that great results are best delivered by a highly creative team working in concert. We are an equal opportunity employer; we do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status. We are diverse in background and singular in mission.
