Scientist (Analytical Development, Cell Therapy)Summary of the group Join our Cell Therapy Analytical Development team, where we develop and deliver robust, technologically advanced biological assays to progress cell therapy products from research to commercial stages. Our team supports the end-to-end biological and bioanalytical characterization of viral vector and cell therapy products, enabling manufacturing processes, formulation, drug product development, and regulatory filings from IND to BLA and beyond. We collaborate closely with analytical quality and several cross-functional teams, including clinical, regulatory, QA, and manufacturing.
Accountabilities - Develop robust functional, characterization, and molecular analytical methods including method qualification and transfer.
- Make detailed observations, analyze data, interpret results, and exercise appropriate technical discretion in the design, execution, and interpretation of experiments independently.
- Carry out analytical development/sample testing to enable lentiviral vector upstream and downstream process development.
- Author/review technical reports, protocols, and technical summaries for presentation.
- Present and discuss experimental results at group/project team meetings.
- Work in a team-based structure and interface with research and process development departments.
Essential Skills/Experience - Bachelor's degree in Immunology, Cell Biology, Biological Sciences, Biotechnology, or related field with 5+ years of relevant experience or a Master's degree in Immunology, Cell Biology, Biological Sciences, Biotechnology, or related field with 3+ years of relevant experience.
- Biotechnology or pharmaceutical industry experience working with analytical for lentiviral vector and CAR T cells is required.
- Experience method qualification/validation and tech transfer of cell and gene therapy analytical methods is a required.
