Build the technology
that changes everything.
PonieTech Industries is assembling the team that will bring Project Juvet from laboratory to market — the world's first quantum-photonic human-robot interface built from engineered biological tissue. We are looking for people who want to work at the frontier, not follow it.
Why Join PonieTech
This is not a
normal company.
PonieTech was founded at the exact moment when artificial intelligence, quantum sensing, and biological engineering are simultaneously crossing from laboratory curiosity to practical application. We are not chasing a trend. We are standing at a convergence point and building what that convergence makes possible.
The work is hard. The problems are unsolved. The technology has never existed before. If that is exactly what you are looking for — you are in the right place.
Open Positions
Where we need
extraordinary people.
Lead the bioprinting protocol development for the Project Juvet tri-layer construct. You will own the Ag2S quantum dot bioink formulation, GelMA hydrogel optimization, and cell viability validation program. Requires hands-on experience with bioprinting platforms and skin tissue engineering.
Full-time · Phoenix AZ · Year 2 hireDesign and implement the QKD communication channel between paired Project Juvet constructs. Requires deep expertise in entangled photon pair sources, single photon detectors, and quantum key distribution protocols. Experience with ion-trap systems highly valued.
Full-time · Phoenix AZ · Year 3 hireDevelop and optimize the neural signal classification and haptic decoding models for the Project Juvet photonic inference chip. You will work at the intersection of machine learning and photonic hardware — a rare and consequential combination.
Full-time · Phoenix AZ · Year 2-3 hireLead the FDA regulatory strategy for Project Juvet as a combination product under CDRH and CBER jurisdiction. Own the pre-IND planning, IND application preparation, and pre-submission meeting process. Experience with Class II/III device submissions and combination products required.
Part-time / Consulting · Remote · Year 3 hireSupport day-to-day laboratory operations including cell culture maintenance, construct fabrication runs, assay execution, and equipment maintenance. BSL-2 experience required. You will work directly alongside the research scientists on every Phase 1 and Phase 2 experiment.
Full-time · Phoenix AZ · Year 2 hireOwn the partnership development program — identifying and securing the strategic partnerships in bioprinting hardware, quantum hardware, photonic computing, and clinical research organizations that accelerate Project Juvet development. Deep tech and medtech commercial experience required.
Full-time · Phoenix AZ · Year 3-4 hireDo not see the right role?
We hire for extraordinary people first and define the role second. If you have deep expertise in quantum technology, biological engineering, photonics, or deep tech commercialization — send us a note.
What We Offer
Built for people who
care about the work.
Early team members receive equity that reflects their role in building something from the ground up. We are not offering a token position — we are offering a stake in the outcome.
Project Juvet will change what it means for a human to operate a machine. The applications span surgical robotics, defense, rehabilitation, and hazardous environments. The stakes are real.
We are a small founding team with adult accountability standards. We measure results, not hours. Where the role allows, we support remote and hybrid arrangements.
The intersection of quantum biology, bioprinting, and AI is a frontier with very few people working in it. Your work here will be recognized and published — not buried in a corporate portfolio.
Compensation is structured to attract serious people. Base salaries are competitive for a Series A-stage deep tech company. Equity is meaningful and tied to vesting with founder-aligned terms.
We do not have layers. We do not have bureaucracy. Every person at PonieTech is here because they are exceptional at something consequential. That is the only culture we are building.
Our Culture
What it means to
work here.
"We are building something that has never existed before. That requires people who are genuinely excited by unsolved problems — not reassured by solved ones."
— William G. Poole, Founder & CEO
PonieTech is a company in its founding phase. Every person who joins us is a founder in every meaningful sense — they shape the culture, the practices, the technical architecture, and the commercial direction of a company that is being built from first principles. We do not have an established playbook. We write it together.
What we do have is a clear mission, a rigorous technical foundation built on peer-reviewed science, a fully developed patent strategy, and a founder who has built the complete commercial infrastructure of this company with the same precision that the technology itself demands. The work is serious. The people are serious. The opportunity is extraordinary.
