Who we are

We are the first publicly-traded biotech or pharmaceutical company to take the form of a public benefit corporation. Our public benefit purpose is to provide a brighter future for patients through the development of novel pharmaceutical therapies; and technologies that expand the availability of transplantable organs.

United Therapeutics (Nasdaq: UTHR ) seeks to travel down the corridors of indifference to develop treatments for rare, deadly diseases. We were founded in 1996 by a family seeking a cure for their daughter's pulmonary arterial hypertension( PAH) . Today, we have six FDA-approved therapies that treat PAH, pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease ( PH-ILD ) and neuroblastoma, a rare pediatric cancer. Our near-term pipeline seeks to develop additional therapies for PAH and pulmonary fibrosis ( PF ).

The cure for end-stage life-threatening diseases like PAH, PH-ILD, PF, and many others is an organ transplant, but only a small percentage of donated organs are available to address the vast need. For this reason, we are working to create bio-artificial organs to address the shortage of kidneys, hearts, lungs, and livers available for transplant. We believe an unlimited supply of tolerable, transplantable organs will eliminate the transplant waiting list and cure end-stage organ diseases for which transplant is not currently an option.

Who you are:

We are looking for our human who wants to help us save lives by ending the organ shortage crisis. Our Organ Manufacturing Group (OMG) is working to create the first 3D printed autologous human lung equivalent. This is where back to the future meets real life and we want someone who is passionate about production and process engineering. The Associate Process Engineer is responsible for participating and supporting lab scale production, process development, and process verification. The Associate Process Engineer will also provide inputs to process engineering design as well as contribute to ongoing process analysis and improvements. This role will also be responsible for analyzing and documenting the results of experiments to prepare for tech transfer to manufacturing (GMP).
