NewLimit is extending human healthspan by unlocking regenerative potential. Backed by Kleiner Perkins.

About the role

This is a hands-on bench role with targeting compositional and reaction design ownership. You will work closely with the Delivery Sciences and biology teams to design and build relevant targeting lipids portfolio for New Limit’s pipeline programs. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • Strong skill set in the design formulation of new targeted LNPs, performed personally rather than with a supervisor directing each step
  • SAR-driven design, purification, and characterization of tLNPs and targeted moiety conjugated lipids and AI-based SAR prediction tools for tLNP applications
  • Practical purification skills spanning normal- and reverse-phase, size-exclusion chromatography and preparative HPLC
  • Analytical characterization across LC-CAD, LC-UV, DLS, CE, bio-layer interferometry and surface plasmon resonance with the ability to deconvolute the data to produce well-characterized tLNPs
