If you’re a protein engineer who thrives in the lab and wants your work to move swiftly toward patients, this role offers real opportunity, purpose, and scientific challenge.
What You’ll Work On
- Design and optimize novel antibody and bispecific formats that power our next-generation immunotherapies
- Lead antibody engineering from idea to construct to bench — including expression, purification, and characterization
- Improve key attributes like affinity, stability, specificity, and PK using modern tools and data
- Drive develop ability assessments with platforms like SPR, BLI, DSC, DLS, ciEF, and LC-MS
- Collaborate across functional teams to support candidate selection and preclinical development
- Develop and refine functional assays for biologic characterization
- Present findings in a clear, compelling way to multidisciplinary teams

- Deep experience with bispecific or multispecific formats and familiarity with T cell engagers
- Working knowledge of structure–activity relationships and/or molecular modeling is a plus
- Experience with mammalian expression systems (e.g., CHO/HEK), cell-based assays, or phage/yeast display is valuable
- Strong communication, data interpretation, and cross-functional collaboration skills
- Direct impact: Your ideas and experiments will influence platform design and help shape clinical programs
- Cutting-edge science: Work on a truly novel immunotherapy approach in a scientifically rigorous, fast-moving environment
- Personal growth: Take on visible, high-impact projects in a startup culture where contributions are recognized and development is supported
