Upstream Process Development Scientist

My client is a growing CDMO with a focus on producing Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) vectors. For gene therapy companies, they provide end-to-end solutions ranging from preclinical development to clinical and commercial manufacturing.

Their state-of-the-art facility in Massachusetts is committed to developing treatments for individuals with uncommon and unfulfilled medical requirements.

Responsibilities :

  • Take the lead in creating and refining the upstream procedures for the production of AAV, such as virus propagation, transfection, and cell culture.
  • Using bench-scale, pilot-scale, and large-scale bioreactors (e.g., 10L to 2000L) with both adherent and suspension systems, develop, optimise, and scale-up AAV production processes.
  • The mission is to successfully scale up AAV processes from small-scale (shake flasks, micro bioreactors) to pilot and GMP manufacturing scale through the design and execution of trials.

Requirements :

  • Master's degree with eight years of experience in a relevant discipline, or Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering, Biochemical Engineering, Biotechnology, or a related field with five years or more of industry experience.
  • A great deal of upstream process development experience, especially in the manufacture of AAV and other viral vectors.
  • Demonstrated practical experience with both adherent and suspension cultures in single-use and stainless steel bioreactors.
  • A track record of successfully expanding AAV production processes from bench to pilot and factory levels.
  • Knowledge of the transfection / infection techniques and cell lines (such as HEK293, Sf9) that are frequently utilised in the creation of AAV.
