WHY JOIN MILESTONE
At Milestone, we aspire to advance and implement paradigm shifts for cardiac therapy. We are currently focused on developing anti‑arrhythmia treatments for self‑administration outside of the emergency department or hospital setting for patients with acute episodes of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT) and atrial fibrillation (AFib), as well as other episodic cardiovascular conditions.
In addition to our science and innovation, we are a team guided and driven by our core values. Patient needs and empowerment are continually upheld as central to our mission. Our teamwork is strengthened in an environment in which we support and challenge each other while enjoying and celebrating our achievements. We maintain an entrepreneurial, proactive, and action‑oriented mindset that places high value on grit, courage, and resolve. Decision‑making is based on evaluating information and an idea’s merits; data‑driven proposals are both supported and sought. We act individually and as a team with humility, candor, empathy, and unwavering integrity.
We have been successful in attracting and empowering best‑in‑class talent, and we seek those with passion to join on our journey to develop treatments and to motivate change. We are excited about possibilities of this team and what we can accomplish together.
