About The Position

Who We Are Powered by technology and compassionate design, Parachute has reimagined the plasma donation experience into one that is easier and friendlier.

In using a tech-forward approach, we’re able to offer each member a highly personable and best-in-class experience that’s consistent at each and every visit. Our vision is to introduce an elevated plasma donation experience to markets with smaller populations that’s grounded in convenience. This model allows us to positively impact the industry supply chain and help patients gain access to the life-changing medication they need. We have grown from 2 to 50+ operations in ~3 years and are looking for new team members to help us scale to 60+ centers this year alone. We are searching for individuals who share our passion for helping others and are invigorated by the speed at which our start-up moves. Come join us as we help the world gain access to more plasma - one donation at a time.
