We are a leading biotech company that uses Machine Learning and AI technologies to create superior drugs for cancer and autoimmune disorders by programming antibodies to become dynamic functional switches that affect biology in new ways. We are seeking a motivated researcher to join one of our leading programs as a key player in the drug discovery department and contribute to the discovery of novel therapeutics. As an R&D project researcher, you will implement protein engineering methodologies and contribute to the establishment and implementation of in-vitro antibody characterization using cell-based assays.
Key responsibilities:
* A core member of an R&D project team.
* Identify, suggest, and design in vitro mechanisms of action studies to drive project progression.
* Design and execute various biological and cell-based research methods (i.e., protein characterization experiments, standard cell-lines and primary cell-based assays) to evaluate protein interactions, binding affinities, and functional properties.
* Analyze and interpret experimental data to drive project-related scientific decision-making.
* Meet project goals and contribute to the development of research plans, protocols, and project timelines.
* Present scientific and project-related data and document scientific and experimental work.
