Reversible cryopreservation technology for organ preservation and transplantation
Until is building hardware and chemistry to make human organs viable for weeks instead of hours by reversibly freezing them without ice crystal damage. The tech stack—HPLC, GC-MS, PyTorch, qPCR, 3D printing, Fusion 360—reveals a materials-science and biotech engineering operation, not a software company. Heavy hiring in research (13 roles) and engineering (17 roles) across mid and senior levels signals active R&D scaling toward manufacturing validation.
Until develops reversible cryopreservation technology to extend organ viability from hours to weeks or months, eliminating logistics-driven organ loss in transplantation. The company addresses two technical problems: preventing ice crystal formation during freezing and achieving uniform rewarming at scale. Current work spans cryoprotectant formulation screening, perfusion systems design, rewarming hardware, and in vitro organ models. Founded in San Francisco with 11–50 employees, Until is hiring steadily across research, engineering, and operations roles in the United States.
Reversible cryopreservation for whole human organs. The company is developing hardware (vitrification, rewarming, perfusion systems) and chemical formulations (cryoprotectants) to preserve donated organs at subzero temperatures without ice formation, extending viability from hours to weeks or months.
Materials characterization (HPLC, GC-MS, qPCR), computational modeling (Python, PyTorch, NumPy, SciPy, Pandas), CAD and design (Fusion 360, 3D printing), cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP), and standard operations tools (Notion, Gusto, Lever).
