As a Mechanical Engineer at Pilgrim , you will be a hands-on member of our engineering team, driving the design, development, and deployment of advanced hardware systems. This is not a theoretical or routine R&D role-you'll own initiatives end-to-end, transforming mission needs into prototypes, refining them through field demos and rapid iterations, and engaging directly with operators and decision-makers to ensure breakthroughs reach warfighters where they matter most. This role is ideal for an engineer eager to learn fast, take ownership early, and grow through building systems that operate under real-world pressure. Responsibilities Design and develop compact, ruggedized subsystems, housings, and rigs in CAD , ensuring reliability under shock, vibration, and environmental conditions. Prototype components using CNC machining (Fusion 360 CAM with Tormach PathPilot), 3D printing (FDM/SLA), vacuum/pressure forming, laser cutting, and general metalworking. Develop and...

Retro develops therapies for diseases driven by the biology of aging. We focus on cellular reprogramming and autophagy to rejuvenate cell and tissue function with the ultimate aim of adding 10 years to healthy human lifespan. We're building a mission-driven team of accomplished and kind individuals who embrace our startup culture of rapid iteration, transparency, and versatility. We are hiring a new member of the team who will expand Retro's capabilities by building, maintaining, and scaling custom bioreactor systems used for automated cell culture. This is a highly hands-on "builder" role at the intersection of precision assembly, fluidics, sensors, electronics, and automation. In this role, expect to be at the bioreactor-assembling hardware, improving designs, strengthening reliability, and enabling scientists to run more experiments confidently. About you: You are a hands-on engineer at heart-someone who loves building complex, reliable systems. You balance rigor and...

As a Biomedical Engineer at Pilgrim, you will be a hands-on member of our engineering team, driving the design, development, and integration of hardware systems that support complex scientific workflows. This is not a theoretical or routine R&D role-you'll own projects end-to-end, exploring design options, prototyping aggressively, and refining systems through iterative testing. You will move fluidly between CAD, prototyping, experimental evaluation, and integration work, supporting a wide range of engineering challenges informed by both engineering principles and practical experience working with biology. Responsibilities Conduct targeted literature review and technical scouting to understand prior approaches, evaluate alternatives, and identify methods that can be improved or integrated. Design and develop components and subsystems in CAD (Fusion 360 preferred), including housings, fixtures, flow structures, reagent interfaces, thermal/optical elements, and integration...
