Serving as a project leader in Downstream Process Development, the Staff Scientist will collaborate on and drive the planning, execution, and management of assigned purification activities. Working with external clients, R&D, Quality Control/Quality Assurance and Manufacturing, the Staff Scientist is expected to provide expertise and scientific knowledge for design, development, optimization, and manufacturing of protein and virus products. The incumbent will participate in downstream experiment design and execute the downstream process screening, optimization, scale-up, characterization, and stability studies for proteins and viral vectors to meet client specified end points.
The incumbent in this position is expected to have a strong understanding of the principals involved in protein and viral vector purification and extensive hands-on experience in downstream process development. This position involves developing scalable downstream purification processes for GMP production, optimizing process performance for yield and purity, and adapting existing procedures to meet regulatory requirements for the manufacture of protein and viral products intended for human injection. The successful candidate is expected to carry out the work with minimal guidance. This position is expected to interact with other departments involved in technology transfer, GMP manufacturing, product testing and quality assurance for product release.
