Teiko is building the Artificial Immunologist. With 500M+ years in the making, the immune system is nature’s original fine-tuned model. We are building a foundational laboratory to digitize the immune system and reshape multi-billion dollar markets across clinical trials, oncology, autoimmune diagnostics, prenatal medicine, surgical recovery, and aging.

By capturing high-resolution immune snapshots, we give drug developers and doctors the decisive signal needed to monitor whether a $200M+ clinical trial succeeds, whether a therapy will cause irreversible harm, or whether a patient will respond to a crucial drug.

Through deep technical breakthroughs, we have cracked the key challenges that have held back immune profiling from achieving clinical-grade scale. We are able to crack these precisely because we have an interdisciplinary team with pioneers and experts in immunology, advanced diagnostics, medical commercialization, and machine learning.

This role is intended for someone interested in working at the intersection of immunology, data science, and high-speed lab operations.

What We Do

Our mission is to make immune measurement a reality for clinical trials and patients. You wouldn’t run an Ozempic trial without a weight scale; and our aim is that you wouldn’t run an immunotherapy trial without Teiko. We use high-dimensional cytometry, both spectral and mass, to measure the immune state of patients on trial in our Clinical Laboratory Inspection Amendment (CLIA)-registered lab.
