The role

We are building an automated biology platform and, and we are looking for a molecular biologist / research scientist to handle the core wet lab work: selection design, library construction, and readouts.

Responsibilities
  • Run end to end workflows, library through selection to characterized hits

  • Design selection strategy: stringency schedules, bottlenecks, counter-selections

  • Design FACS sorting and screening strategies, and interpret population trajectories across rounds

Must-haves
  • Cell culture: hands-on experience, ideally with yeast.

  • Molecular cloning: fundamentals (PCR amplification, Gibson assembly, Golden Gate assembly, transformations); experience with sequencing services.

  • Flow cytometry/FACS: gating strategies, staining, sample loading.

  • Nice-to-haves
    • Yeast genetics and surface display
    • Ortho Rep or other continuous hypermutation systems
    • phage display or PACE
    • SPR/BLI
    • NGS library prep and analysis
    • protein expression and purification
    • Opentrons, Hamilton, Tecan, or eVOLVER-class hardware.

    If you have never worked in yeast, apply anyway. We would rather hire for selection judgment and long-run discipline, and teach the organism.
