Scientist II, High Throughput Antibody Production

Responsibilities:
- Support biologics drug discovery and protein engineering by leveraging automation technologies to generate and characterize therapeutic proteins.
- Execute end-to-end production campaigns: molecular design, mammalian tissue culture, protein purification, protein characterization (e.g., MS, SEC, DSF), and binding assays (e.g., ELISA).
- Serve as primary point of contact for protein design and production campaigns; interface with therapeutic area collaborators.
- Help build next-generation molecular biology capabilities to enable a rapid design-build-test cycle for therapeutic binders.

Qualifications:
Education:
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Biology, Biochemistry, or a related field.
- Typically 7+ years (BS) or 5+ years (MS) of pharmaceutical and/or relevant industry experience.

Skills & Experience:
- Strong knowledge of biologics, antibody fragments, and protein mimetics; ability to design therapeutic modalities using protein structure/function.
- Proficiency in molecular biology techniques, sequence analysis, and protein engineering fundamentals.
- Hands-on experience with mammalian cell culture and transfection workflows.
- Competence in protein purification and in vitro analytical characterization (e.g., SEC, MS, DSF).
- Experience optimizing workflows/assays using statistical analysis.
- Cell-free production and screening of therapeutic binders is a plus.
- Ability to collaborate with internal/external scientific leaders.
- Strong organizational skills; manage multiple projects.

Benefits:
- Paid time off (vacation, holidays, sick), medical/dental/vision insurance, and 401(k) for eligible employees.
- Eligible to participate in short-term incentive programs.
