About Pilgrim:
Pilgrim is building America’s biology prime - engineering, manufacturing, and deploying advanced biotechnology for defense and national security. Our primary platform, ARGUS, is a fully autonomous system for detecting biological threats in near real time, from naturally occurring pathogens to engineered agents.
We engineer hardware for biology, turning breakthrough science into fielded capabilities. Based in Redwood City, our team brings together mechanical and electrical engineering, chemistry, and biology under one roof to deliver critical technologies to the people who need them.

You will work closely with engineers, scientists, and manufacturing teams to ensure Pilgrim’s facilities support high-tempo development, testing, and production.
Responsibilities:
Build and expand Pilgrim’s facilities, including renovations, manufacturing build-outs, equipment moves, production layouts, workflows, and utilities.
