Scientist, Lentiviral Vector Cell Line Development

Required

• M.S. or PhD in Biological Engineering, Virology, Cell Biology, Molecular Biology, or a related field.
• 7+ years of hands-on experience in biopharma, including 4+ years focused on lentiviral vector producer or packaging cell line development in support of GLP or GMP production of cell or gene therapies.
• 2+ years of experience managing direct report(s) and providing technical guidance.
• Proven track record balancing hands-on bench leadership with big-picture platform strategy and roadmapping.
• Experience communicating technical work to external stakeholders and translating their needs into technical plans.
• Demonstrated ability to communicate scientific work externally, evidenced by publications, patents, and/or conference presentations.
• Experience with downstream purification and PQ assessment of lentiviral vectors, T-cell transduction assay, viral genome engineering, and/or host cell genome engineering related to virus production or producer cell line technologies is highly desired.
• Experience with process development at Ambr or benchtop bioreactor scale is a plus.
• Comfortable working with large, multidimensional datasets and applying statistical or computational methods to extract actionable biological or process insights.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills required.
• We're fueled by a vision to transform biological engineering into a fully-fledged engineering discipline. Should you join our team, you will grow with a constantly evolving organization and push the frontiers of synthetic biology. Company culture is key to Asimov, and ours is a culture of recombination; we believe that our mission can only be achieved by bringing together a diverse team with a mixture of backgrounds and perspectives.
