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've built a mammalian synthetic biology platform – from cells to software – to enable the design and manufacture of next-generation therapeutics.

We are seeking a highly motivated Senior Research Associate or Associate Scientist (Contractor) to join our Analytical Development team for a 6-month contract. In this role, you will run our developability and biophysical screening panel and support routine product-quality (PQ) analytical delivery for our Cell Line Development (CLD) pipeline. You will work hands-on across plate-based and chromatographic assays to characterize antibodies, multispecifics, and other engineered protein formats, generating the data that guides candidate and clone selection. You will be trained and supported by the method owner for each assay, and will grow into independent ownership of routine execution. The ideal candidate is meticulous, enjoys high-throughput laboratory work, and communicates results clearly.
