Until is a moonshot company building a “pause button” for biology. Our near-term focus is organ-scale reversible cryopreservation: preserving donated organs at subzero temperatures without ice formation, then rewarming them uniformly for transplant. By solving this time-critical challenge, we’re laying the foundation for medical hibernation: pausing molecular motion to give patients a bridge to future cures.
To achieve our goal, we are assembling an interdisciplinary team to develop perfusion systems, cryoprotectant formulations, controlled-rate freezers, and vitrification and rewarming protocols for human tissue. We are also building out our medical hibernation team to tackle the challenges of whole-body cryopreservation, beginning with rodent models.
We envision a future where no transplantable organ is lost to logistics, and no terminal diagnosis is final because patients can safely wait for future medicine to arrive.
About The Role
As an Embedded Software Engineering Intern at Until, you’ll build the software and firmware that supports our scientific instruments and medical devices, from microscopes to cooling and rewarming systems. You will own projects end-to-end, collaborate across disciplines, and set a high bar for developing systems that scale with the team.
About You
While this represents our expected range based on market data, final compensation will be determined based on your specific qualifications and may be outside this range.
