Senior Scientist, Membrane Protein Biochemistry

Role: Senior Scientist in Membrane Protein Biochemistry within Discovery Protein Science at Amgen, focusing on designing and executing strategies for recombinant production and purification of membrane proteins, with an emphasis on analytical characterization. Responsibilities: develop membrane protein platforms, interpret scientific data, collaborate across teams, and potentially mentor junior staff. Requirements: PhD, PharmD, MD with postdoctoral experience, or relevant laboratory experience (minimum 3-5 years depending on degree); expertise with ÄKTA systems, HPLC/UPLC, spectroscopy, mass spectrometry; strong communication and teamwork skills. Preferred: postdoctoral experience, scientific accomplishments (publications/patents), knowledge of structural biology or MP pharmacology. High-Value: involves membrane protein platform development to support drug discovery efforts for biologics or small molecules, likely in early to late preclinical stages. Work setup details not specified, but typical research environment implied.
