Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical
2 open jobsGeneral information
Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical is a pharmaceutical company based in Novato, United States. It makes treatments for rare diseases, including three FDA-approved drugs: Mepsevii (vestronidase alfa), Crysvita (burosumab), and Dojolvi (triheptanoin).
Emil Kakkis founded the company in 2010 in Novato, California. It went public in 2014, raising $126 million in its IPO, and now trades on Nasdaq under the ticker RARE. It acquired Dimension Therapeutics in 2017 for gene therapy technology and GeneTx Biotherapeutics in 2022 for $75 million upfront. In 2020, it had 893 employees and revenue of $271 million. That matters: acquisitions gave Ultragenyx gene-therapy technology it didn't build in-house, backing its shift into rare-disease treatments beyond its first drugs. Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical is a top-tier H-1B sponsor.1
