While a traditional allogeneic stem cell transplant has been the best hope for many, the transplant itself can prove fatal or lead to serious conditions, such as graft vs. host disease. Orca Bio is a late-stage biotechnology company redefining the transplant process by developing next-generation cell therapies with the goal of providing significantly better survival rates with dramatically fewer risks.With our purified, high-precision investigational cell therapies we hope to not only replace patients' blood and immune systems with healthy ones, but also restore their lives.

The Technician, Quality Control conducts routine and non-routine testing to ensure the highest quality standards in our cell therapy manufacturing facility. Your work will play a crucial role in maintaining the integrity and safety of our cell therapy products.
