Scientist - Analytical Development, Regeneron Cell Medicines (RCM

Overview

The Scientist, RCM Analytical Development, will support Regeneron Cell Medicines (RCM) cell therapy programs by developing, optimizing, and executing biophysical assays to characterize lentiviral vectors. In this role you will plan and perform experiments, develop new assay protocols, analyze and interpret data, and communicate results through presentations, protocols, and technical reports. Additionally, you will support routine laboratory operations, instrument maintenance, and accurate electronic lab notebook documentation.

The Scientist will partner cross‑functionally to meet program timelines and deliver high‑quality analytical data to support therapies for patients.

• Advance analytical development for cell therapy programs with a primary focus on lentiviral vectors (LVVs).
• Strengthen existing and establish new biophysical methods to characterize LVVs.
• Analyze, interpret, and clearly present complex datasets to technical and cross‑functional audiences.
• Partner with cross‑functional teams across RCM to troubleshoot challenges, align on priorities, and support program execution.
• Author and review technical documentation, including assay protocols, method development reports, and data summaries.
• Maintain complete, timely, and compliant electronic lab notebook records, support instrument upkeep, and independently troubleshoot equipment and assays.

• Bachelor’s or Master’s Degree in Biophysics, Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, or related field.
• 6‑8+ years of proven experience with characterization and quantitative analysis of lentiviral vectors.
• Ability to work independently to design experiments, interpret, document, and communicate results.
• Experience with biophysical characterization techniques for sizing and counting particles (e.g., DLS, MRPS, fluorescent labeling assays) is preferred.
• Understanding and knowledge of viral vector biology, design, process, and gene delivery mechanisms is a plus.
• Strong analytical skills, excellent written and verbal communication, and the ability to work collaboratively in a fast‑paced environment.
