Cellular Origins  

Cell therapies have been shown to cure devasting and previously untreatable diseases like cancer by re-programming the patient's own immune system. Giving more patients access to these life-saving therapies requires a revolution in manufacturing and process automation.  

Cellular Origins, a TTP company, is leading this revolution. Our proprietary technology tackles the challenges of large-scale production with an elegant robotic automation system that cuts costs, reduces labour, eliminates human error, and boosts efficiency.    

Do you want to join the revolution? We're rapidly growing the team and are looking for an experienced Electrical Engineer who is equally excited about our mission.  

Electrical Engineer 

The Cellular Origins Constellation system is a highly modular factory that requires a complementary electrical power and communication framework. You’ll take ownership over the full electrical system design process, from requirements capture through to documenting schematics and working with suppliers for manufacturing and commissioning.  You’ll be working within a highly multidisciplinary team to bring our system to life! 

You'll design cutting-edge electrical systems for 1-phase and DC supplies and create innovative control panels for machinery and motor control. You'll be at the forefront of developing new products and ensuring a seamless transfer from design to production. Additionally, you'll be key in enhancing safety by designing robust systems for machinery and factory lines.  

You’ll generate production-ready electrical schematics and cable schedules, and meticulously maintain documentation for existing products. Lastly, hands-on commissioning and debugging of complex industrial machinery, ensuring everything runs smoothly and efficiently will also be a key part of your role.
