About The Company:

Orbillion is a top-tier cell-cultured meat company that crafts premium heritage meats from wagyu beef, wild elk, lamb, and American bison. After only 4 months of development time, we presented three of our four flavorful meats in a first-ever exclusive tasting in San Francisco (check out the video).

Orbillion is led by CEO Patricia Bubner, PhD, CTO Gabriel Levesque-Tremblay, PhD, and COO Samet Yildirim, MSc, MBS. Together, our three founders have more than 30 years of combined experience in rapid development and scale-up of mammalian cell culture as well as business and product development.

We’re proud to have an all-star advisory board, which includes high-profile food and biotech experts such as Matt Croughan (ex-Genentech, ex-Sapphire Energy, ex-KGI), Greg Hiller (ex-Pfizer), Ron Shigeta (ex-IndieBio), Guy Crims (Master Wagyu Butcher at Niku Steakhouse, the best steakhouse in SF), and Jay Keasling (UC Berkeley professor and entrepreneur).

Our team went through Y Combinator and raised a total of $6.4M from experienced food and agriculture investors and science-savvy angel investors including: At One Ventures (investors in Climax Foods, Finless Foods, Wild Earth), FoundersX Ventures (investors in SpaceX), Prithi Ventures (investors in Mission Barns, Turtle Tree Labs), Quiet Capital, and others. And, we graduated from Creative Destruction Lab’s Climate Stream.

Now, we’re focused on building our team and bringing our first product - Wagyu beef - up to pilot scale.

• Exciting opportunity to contribute to and work with a small, talented, and fun team.

• Competitive base salary, commensurate with experience, and benefits package.
