Job Description :

The Assoc. Scientist will join the Gene Delivery and Editing Process Development (GDEPD) organization supporting process development for production of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), which are critical to generating groundbreaking cell therapies.

The associate will join the LNP Platform Development team working on initiatives intended to drive next-generation LNP platform development focused on gene editing capabilities.

Specifically, in the pursuit of end-to-end assessment of Client technologies and approaches, the associate will seek to become highly proficient in developing processes to produce and purify LNPs, while also gaining familiarity with analytical assays for characterization of LNPs.

The associate will also have the unique opportunity to be exposed to a wide range of other gene editing technologies and will be encouraged to work collaboratively with a range of different groups doing different types of process development.

Experience :

Experience with handling of nucleic acids

Experience with LNP characterization techniques (HPLC, DLS, MALs, NTA, etc.)

Experience downstream purification of biological molecules (AKTA, chromatography, TFF, viral filtration, etc.)

Experience with development of continuous processes and implementation process-analytical technologies (PATs)

Experience with microfluidic technologies

Experience in the development of other gene delivery or editing materials (e.g. adeno-, retro-, lenti-, RNPs, Cas, mRNA, etc.)

Skills :

An in-depth knowledge of LNPs, with at least 2 years of demonstrated experience with LNPs

Capability to identify LNP critical quality attributes and how process parameters may directly impact these attributes

Experience designing scalable LNP process unit operations (tangential flow filtration, distilled filtration, production of LNPs

Education :

STEM degree with 2+ years of relevant industry experience; title / compensation will ultimately be commensurate with education, experience, and skillset
