Reagent Manufacturing Associate

At Pattern Bioscience, we’re tackling antibiotic resistance, named by the CDC as one of the biggest public health challenges of our time.  We use AI and single-cell analysis to quickly recognize the bacteria causing an infection and to predict which drugs will cure the infection. Our team is brought together by shared passion for our mission to improve the world’s most important health decisions. However, we’re not only invested in combating antibiotic resistance; we’re also invested in our people.

Our next milestones are to optimize processes and scale consumable manufacturing output in support of product development through commercialization.
