## Job description

## About Brainchild Bio

Brainchild Bio (BCBio) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing novel therapies for pediatric brain cancer. Headquartered in Seattle, WA, we're building the infrastructure to support a growing lab and clinical footprint and we need a hands-on operator to stand up the systems, safety programs, and physical spaces that will get us there.

## The Role

BCB is hiring a Facilities & Lab Operations Senior Manager on a 1-year contract to build our facilities operations and lab safety program from the ground up. This is a foundational, builder role: you'll design and implement the processes, vendor relationships, and safety routines that don't yet exist, while managing a small team responsible for day-to-day equipment and facilities upkeep. You'll partner closely with Research, Lab Operations, EHS, and Tech Ops to make sure our physical environment keeps pace with a fast-moving clinical-stage company.

## What You'll Do

Build and own BCB's facilities management program, including preventive maintenance schedules, vendor management, and space planning for lab and office environments

## About BrainChild Bio

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: BrainChild Bio is a clinical-stage biotech company developing CAR-T cell therapies for central nervous system (CNS) tumors, with an initial focus on the childhood cancer DIPG.
- **Entity Type**: Private (funding stage not publicly disclosed)
- **Headquarters**: Seattle, WA, USA
- **Founded**: Not publicly available (launched out of Seattle Children’s, built on Dr. Michael Jensen’s research)
- **Founders**: Dr. Michael Jensen (Founder & Chief Scientific Officer)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Biopharmaceuticals / Cell Therapy / Oncology
- **Target customers**: Pediatric and adult cancer patients, clinical partners, regulatory agencies, healthcare providers
- **Mission**: To develop safe and effective therapies for children with brain cancer — “we must get more cures to kids with cancer” ([brainchildbio.com - Careers](https://brainchildbio.com/careers/))

## Products & Services
- **BCB-276**: Clinical candidate for DIPG (diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma), an incurable childhood brainstem cancer; plan is to proceed directly to a single pivotal registrational trial designed to support a Biologics License Application (BLA) after FDA alignment ([brainchildbio.com - Pipeline](https://brainchildbio.com/pipeline/))
- **CNS CAR-T Platform**: Integrates synthetic technologies with three pillars — multiplexed targeting, potency enhancement, and remote control — to optimize CAR-T therapies for CNS tumors ([brainchildbio.com - About](https://brainchildbio.com/about/))
- **Expanding Pipeline**: Future planned expansion to other pediatric and adult brain tumors, including glioblastoma and brain metastases ([brainchildbio.com - Pipeline](https://brainchildbio.com/pipeline/))

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed
- **Key Metric**: Total funding not publicly available; key milestone is FDA alignment to proceed with a pivotal registrational trial for BCB-276 ([brainchildbio.com - Pipeline](https://brainchildbio.com/pipeline/))
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Not publicly available; company is closely tied to Seattle Children’s and the research legacy of Dr. Michael Jensen ([brainchildbio.com - About](https://brainchildbio.com/about/))
- **Growth Signals**: Clinical advancement to pivotal trial, active hiring across process development, regulatory affairs, and supply chain, and an expanding leadership team ([jobs.lever.co](https://jobs.lever.co/brainchildbio), [brainchildbio.com - Team](https://brainchildbio.com/team/))

## Competitive Advantages
- Built on over a decade of translational research, including FDA-authorized INDs covering four CNS CAR-T cell products ([brainchildbio.com - About](https://brainchildbio.com/about/))
- Deep specialty in CNS tumors — a difficult niche where established CAR-T approaches face unique challenges
- Mission-driven “kids first” positioning, leading to distinct patient-centric drug development priorities
- Proprietary platform combining multiplexed targeting, potency enhancement, and remote control technologies ([brainchildbio.com - About](https://brainchildbio.com/about/))

## Strategic Focus
- Accelerate BCB-276 through a pivotal registrational trial and toward BLA submission ([brainchildbio.com - Pipeline](https://brainchildbio.com/pipeline/))
- Expand the platform to additional CNS tumors in adults and children
- Build a best-in-class team across immunology, synthetic biology, manufacturing sciences, translational medicine, and clinical development ([brainchildbio.com - Team](https://brainchildbio.com/team/))

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Strong mission and values explicitly labeled “Kids First,” “Inventive,” and “Team” ([brainchildbio.com - Careers](https://brainchildbio.com/careers/))
- **Work Environment**: Offers hybrid and remote roles (e.g., remote Process Engineer; hybrid Scientist roles in Seattle) ([jobs.lever.co](https://jobs.lever.co/brainchildbio))
- **Unique Impact**: Rare opportunity to help advance therapies for pediatric brain cancer “that other biotechnology companies have not done” ([brainchildbio.com - Careers](https://brainchildbio.com/careers/))
- **Hiring Transparency**: AI tools may support aspects of the hiring process, but final decisions are made by humans ([jobs.lever.co](https://jobs.lever.co/brainchildbio))
