More about this role

Our mission at Asimov is to advance humanity's ability to design living systems, enabling biotechnologies with outsized benefit to society. We're developing a mammalian synthetic biology platform––from cells to software––to enable the design and manufacture of next-generation therapeutics.

We are seeking a Scientist I/II, Viral Vector Process Development to join our team in Boston, MA. This role is for a technical expert who will conduct lentiviral (LV Edge) and adeno-associated viral (AAV Edge) vector-based process engineering for gene therapies, design complex experimental approaches to improve our workflows and systems, and coordinate project efforts. While primarily focused on viral vector process engineering, there is a high degree of cross-functionality within the Process Development group that includes working on biologics processes (CHO Edge).

The successful candidate will work closely with Asimov’s Viral Vector and Biologics Cell Line Development teams as well as interfacing with external partners. This role reports to the Head of Process Development and is a unique opportunity to work at a nimble, forward-thinking synthetic biology startup and help build the future of...
