Costs are extremely high-often $500K-$2M per patient-limiting access to only a small fraction of those who need them.\nAs product complexity increases and the cost of failure and scientific labor rises, the industry is shifting toward automation. Robotics and AI are making automated biologics manufacturing feasible, reliable, and economically scalable.\nWe believe the future of biomanufacturing is robotic-closed, automated, and scalable-ensuring critical therapeutics are accessible to every patient who needs them.\nWhy This Matters\nWe don’t just build robots-we’re building the essential infrastructure for next generation biologics. Our technology enables biopharma companies to scale production without redesigning their science, reducing regulatory hurdles and lowering costs so these treatments can reach more patients.\nThe Stack & The Scale\nThe Mission: Build the world’s best robots to make life-saving therapies accessible to all.\n\nThe Technology: Advanced robotic orchestration, high-precision automation, cloud-integrated hardware-software systems, dextrous manipulation, and imitation learning.\n\nThe Location: Headquartered in San Francisco, CA.\n\nThe Backing: Supported by premier investors, including Casdin Capital, Lux Capital, and Y Combinator.\n\nTo learn more and to view a video of our robots in action, visit us at www.multiplylabs.com and follow us on LinkedIn.\nAbout The Role\nWe are seeking a highly skilled, hands-on R&D Lab & Shop Manager to lead daily operations across our prototyping lab, machine shop, and assembly areas.
