Microfluidics is the technology behind the future of personalized medicine and rapid diagnostics. At, we recently raised seed funding to create a development platform that will power the next generation of microfluidic products.

We are hiring a skilled technician to produce microfluidic devices and support our engineering team in a fast-paced startup environment.

In this position, you will:

• Fabricate microfluidic devices using the Parallel manufacturing process
• Operate custom automation equipment
• Inspect devices against specifications
• Track progress and present results during fabrication team meetings
• Troubleshoot problems in the manufacturing process
• Record detailed notes of observations during fabrication
• Work with the engineering team to improve production techniques
