Assoc. Scientist, Biocatalysis (Onsite)

Role: Chemical process development scientist in biocatalysis within Small Molecule R&D, focusing on enzyme-driven transformation optimization from lab to preparative scale. Responsibilities: design and execute experiments to identify enzymatic reactions, improve enzyme variants, develop enzyme-catalyzed processes, and collaborate with chemists and engineers on process implementation. Emphasizes safety, quality compliance, and laboratory operations. Qualifications: BS or MS in chemistry, biochemistry, chemical engineering, or biochemical engineering by October 2026; experience in biocatalysis lab research or process development; strong communication, organization, and safety adherence. Preferred: organic synthesis experience, process scale-up familiarity, analytical techniques (LC-MS, NMR), data analysis (DOE, kinetics), enzyme characterization, and bioengineering technologies. High-Value: focus on biocatalysis, enzyme engineering, process development, GMP compliance, and interdisciplinary collaboration. Work setup: not specified.
