Verve Therapeutics, a wholly owned subsidiary of Eli Lilly & Company, based in Boston, Massachusetts, is a clinical-stage company. The company focuses on developing one-time gene editing medicines for cardiovascular disease. Founded by leaders in cardiovascular medicine, human genetics, and gene editing, Verve aims to replace treatment paradigm from chronic diseases management to novel ‘once and done’ single-course gene editing therapeutics.

The company’s advanced development programs – VERVE-102, and VERVE-201 – target genes that have been extensively validated as targets for lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), a root cause of cardiovascular disease.

Lilly seeks a Scientist/Senior Scientist with proven research skills and experience in cross-functional teamwork to join the Analytical Research and Development (ARD) team within Lilly Research Labs focused on Verve Therapeutics’ pipeline. The ARD team at Verve uses advanced biophysical methods to analyze drug substances and drug products supporting our programs. Help us expand the scope of what gene editing can accomplish by tapping into your expertise in protein biochemistry, cell culture, and high-throughput screening of functional attributes of proteins.

We use pioneering methods and equipment to design, manufacture, and evaluate novel proteins. A passion for protein and nucleic acid biochemistry, and motivation to develop new techniques and biophysical methods, is crucial. The successful candidate will be encouraged to eventually design and take ownership of their own projects.
** Responsibilities
* ** Design and generate DNA constructs for protein expression in both bacterial and non-bacterial systems.
* Express, purify, and characterize proteins using LC-based techniques.
