This individual will have the opportunity to work in a dynamic and fast-paced entrepreneurial environment, working both independently and as part of a highly collaborative and rapidly growing team.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Execution and analysis of bioassays, to assess efficacy, safety and biodistribution of novel nucleic acid therapeutics in rodents and NHPs

  • Develop, optimize, and execute ligand binding assays to support studies in-house and at CROs.
  • Effectively communicate experimental findings in oral, written, and visual formats.
  • Work independently and collaboratively in a multidisciplinary team environment.

Qualifications:

  • Masters or BS in relevant discipline with 6+ years of industry experience. Level will be based on experience.
  • Deep expertise in ex-vivo analytical assays such as ELISA, MSD, qPCR, ddPCR, etc.
  • Hands-on experience with multi-parameter flow-cytometry, including panel design, compensation, and analysis.
  • Experience with various transfection methods in human and NHP PBMCs is preferred
  • Proficiency in processing tissues and isolation of various cell types (hepatocytes, immune cells etc.) from mice and NHPs
  • Prior experience in nucleic acid therapeutics or LNPs is a plus
  • Experience with histological techniques (IHC/IF, ISH, H&E, etc.) analysis is a plus.
  • Strong communication, interpersonal, organizational, analytical, and problem-solving skills.
  • The successful candidate will be expected to demonstrate flexibility in supporting the accelerated timelines associated with data generation, analysis, and reporting for in vivo studies.
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, multidisciplinary, and rapidly growing biotech environment.
