Ultragenyx is a clinical-stage biotechnology company committed to bringing to market novel products for the treatment of rare and ultra-rare diseases, with an initial focus on serious, debilitating metabolic genetic diseases. Founded in 2010, the company has rapidly built a diverse portfolio of product candidates with the potential to address diseases for which the unmet medical need is high, the biology for treatment is clear, and for which there are no approved therapies. Our company is led by an experienced management team in rare disease therapeutics. Recognizing that our primary responsibility is to our patients, we are working with advocacy groups to provide support and outreach to individuals and families affected by these disorders and engage them in the clinical testing process. We are also working with regulatory agencies to design and conduct high quality clinical studies that meet the requirements for approval. We are creating an improved model for successful rare disease drug development that increases efficiency and effectiveness by changing the way the process is organized and conducted. We believe that we can deliver significant value to our patients by building a diverse and high quality pipeline of rare disease therapeutics and efficiently transforming good science into great medicine. We are looking for highly motivated individuals to join our team in an exciting biotechnology environment. If you are looking for a meaningful position that has the ability to transform the lives of patients and be part of a high performance team focused on the same goal, this is the opportunity you have been waiting for.

MicuRx mission is to discover and develop safer and more convenient antibiotics to combat drug-resistant bacterial infections. Multi-drug resistant (MDR) infections represent a major global threat to the public health, routinely forcing the use of antibiotics with high incidence of adverse effects. To combat resistant infections, physicians may increase dosing of antibiotics, or resort to less safe agents, pushing the safety envelope. Thus, healthcare providers and regulatory agencies increasingly face a difficult choice of balancing the risk of infection against unacceptably high adverse event rates from an effective but relatively toxic antibiotic. For example, in July 2016, FDA imposed a new labeling warning on the toxicity of fluoroquinolones, further restricting the use of this essential class, exemplified by anti-pseudomonal agent ciprofloxacin. Anti-MRSA agent linezolid (Zyvox®) is often used beyond its approved 14-day therapy, resulting in several myelosuppression-associated adverse effects listed in the black box warning for this important drug. MicuRx is addressing the critical need for effective but safer therapeutics by designing novel new compounds with reduced toxicity and adverse events while maintaining excellent clinical efficacy.
