Summary
Stephanie Riofrio is a senior biochemical engineer with eight years of hands-on experience advancing upstream and downstream biopharmaceutical processes, now leading engineering efforts at Mirai Bio. She has progressed through technical roles at Sana Biotechnology and Jounce Therapeutics, building expertise in mammalian cell culture, protein purification, column chromatography, and protein quality control that support CMC development and scale-up. Stephanie pairs an MS in Chemical Engineering from Northeastern with practical process development co-op experience at Acceleron, enabling pragmatic optimization of drug substance purification schemes. Based in Ostuni while working for U.S. biotech firms, she blends lab-focused rigor with operational awareness to move candidates from development toward manufacturing readiness. Her GitHub bio—"I'm probably developing something right now"—reflects a constant drive to build and iterate on solutions beyond the bench.
