Description
More than one million people in the United States today are fighting blood cancer. 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.
We have built a state-of-the-art, 100,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Sacramento, CA (7910 Metro Air Pkwy) to ensure the consistent and reliable delivery of our high-precision cell therapy products. This site is essential to advancing our clinical pipeline and supporting future commercial availability of our life-saving therapies.
Summary: Orca Bio is seeking qualified part-time contractors to provide specialized courier services in support of our mission to deliver life-saving cellular therapies for bone marrow donation and transplantation. This role involves the secure, timely, and compliant transport of blood components and related materials from our laboratory facilities to hospitals and treatment centers nationwide.
As a Cell Therapy Medical Courier (aka Transport Associate), you will operate as a professional service provider in transporting high-sensitive medical specimens, while adhering to strict handling, documentation, and chain-of-custody protocols. Successful contractors demonstrate reliability, attention to detail, and strong communication skills, along with the professionalism and discretion required to represent Orca Bio in a highly regulated and time-sensitive clinical environment.
