Our mission is to develop effective, safe, and accessible cell therapies for patients with devastating autoimmune diseases. We aim to develop therapies that patients and physicians can utilize in a community setting. Our lead product candidate, <a href=\"https://www.artivabio.com/nk-cell-technology/#topic-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">AlloNK®</a>, is a non-genetically modified, cryopreserved NK cell therapy being evaluated in combination with B-cell targeted monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). We believe the compelling cell killing properties of NK cells, when combined with mAbs for targeting, creates an opportunity to generate potentially transformative therapies.</p>\n<p> </p>\n<p>For more information, visit <a href=\"https://www.artivabio.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.artivabio.com</a>.</p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold\"><span><span>Position Summary</span></span></span><span> </span></p>\n<p><span><span>The Calibration Technician II supports calibration, verification, troubleshooting, and preventive maintenance of laboratory and GMP manufacturing equipment.
