Scientist LC/MS Bioanalytical, Scientific Development Team

Dash accelerates drug development. By fusing advanced automation-native lab workflows and integrated software into a unified platform, we provide the biopharma industry with the high-velocity, high-quality, data-driven development solutions required to get life-saving therapies to patients faster. Dash seeks to continuously improve industry KPIs and materially reduce the time and cost to bring a drug to market.

Dash Bio is building the operating system for modern drug development. We are moving beyond the manual, fragmented processes of traditional service providers by taking a technology-first approach to bioanalysis. Our platform is tech-enabled, automated, and GLP-compliant with the goal to industrialize the scientific workflows that act as bottlenecks in the industry. We deliver next-generation clinical bioanalysis results with unprecedented speed and precision. 

We are a team of builders operating at the intersection of biology, hardware, and code. This is an environment for scientists and engineers who are tired of the status quo and are ready to apply their skills to solve hard problems at scale. We don't just run assays, we architect the systems that will define the future of drug development. 

We are a place where employees are stretched to do the best work of their career. We are looking for engineers, scientists, and biotechnicians who want to make an impact on the world and leverage their skills in an innovative way.

We are seeking a highly motivated scientist with bioanalytical LC/MS expertise to join our dynamic team. The ideal candidate will leverage their deep background in bioanalytical development to design cutting edge assays that integrate with Dash’s software and robotics platform. The successful candidate will drive projects from concept through completion, mentor junior staff, ensure adherence to regulatory standards, and deliver exceptional results in a fast-paced, innovation-driven environment.

• Method Development & Lab Operations: Design, develop, and implement quantitative LC/MS bioanalytical assays for various therapeutic modalities including small molecules, oligonucleotides, and proteins.
• Workflow Optimization: Select appropriate workflows for sample preparation, including protein precipitation (PPT), LLE, SPE, immuno-capture and drive their development on high-throughput automated platforms.
• Experimental Design: Drive experimental design and validation efforts for LC/MS assays to enhance sensitivity, specificity, throughput, and cost-effectiveness.
• Hands-on Instrumentation: Operate, maintain, and troubleshoot SCIEX QqQ and Thermo Orbitrap instrumentation. Evaluate and implement new analytical equipment, software, and instrumentation to further enhance lab capabilities and throughput.
