Associate Director, Regulatory Affairs

Regulatory Strategist

United Therapeutics (Nasdaq : UTHR) seeks to travel down the corridors of indifference to develop treatments for rare, deadly diseases. We were founded in 1996 by a family seeking a cure for their daughter's pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Today, we have six FDA-approved therapies that treat PAH, pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD) and neuroblastoma, a rare pediatric cancer. Our near-term pipeline seeks to develop additional therapies for PAH and pulmonary fibrosis (PF). Miromatrix, a United Therapeutics company, was created to bring our vision of a world without an organ transplant waitlist to life. With an average of 17 people dying each day waiting for a life-saving organ, the need for a solution is more critical than ever. Founded in 2009 from the University of Minnesota's breakthrough advances in perfusion decellularization and recellularization technology, we are the world leader in the research and development of fully biologic organs. Our approach is expected to be an efficient way to answer the unmet need of thousands of patients across the country who will otherwise go without the transplant they need to survive and thrive.

Miromatrix has 140 issued patents worldwide. Our technology has the potential to be applied across the spectrum of donor needs. We are focused on the research and development of transplantable kidneys (mirokidney), livers (miroliver), and a bioengineered external liver assist device for acute liver failure (miroliver ELAP), with plans to also bioengineer other critical organs like lungs, pancreases and hearts.

We are looking for a regulatory strategist who will advise on regulatory pathways, managing documentation and timelines, and supporting the preparation and execution of regulatory submissions for our whole organ tissue engineering program.
