• Support assay development, optimization and qualification activities for nonclinical and clinical biomarker and immunogenicity applications
• Conduct clinical sample testing for qualified bioanalytical assays
• Troubleshoot assay performance issues, instrument challenges, reagent variability, and sample-related issues, and recommend scientifically sound corrective actions
• Operate, maintain, and troubleshoot complex laboratory instrumentation, including flow cytometers and cell sorters, ELISpot/Fluoro Spot readers, liquid handlers, and integrated robotic platforms
• Prepare reagents, controls, and study materials and perform PBMC isolation and related cellular workflows as needed to support assay readiness and execution
• Maintain accurate, complete, and inspection-ready records in accordance with SOPs, Good Documentation Practices, and applicable regulated laboratory requirements
• Assist in drafting and reviewing SOPs, protocols, forms, reports, deviations, and other technical documentation to support compliant assay execution
• Collaborate effectively with laboratory scientists, robotics engineers, project teams, management, and Quality partners to deliver high-quality data and meet program timelines
• Work safely and compliantly in a structured laboratory environment, including adherence to BSL-2 practices and applicable GLP/GxP expectations

• B.S. + 3-5 years, or M.S + 1-2 years relevant hands‑on experience in Molecular Biology, Immunology, Cell Biology, Biology, Biochemistry, Biology, or related life sciences discipline
• Required years of relevant hands‑on experience in cell‑based assays or immunology‑based bioanalytical testing; prior contractor or industry laboratory experience preferred
• Authorization to work in the United States indefinitely without restriction or sponsorship

• Hands‑on experience in cell‑based assay execution and immunology‑based bioanalytical methods in a laboratory setting
• Foundational experience with one or more of the following platforms: flow cytometry, ELISpot/Fluoro Spot, MSD, Luminex, and PBMC‑based assays
• Experience supporting assay development, optimization, qualification, validation, or sample testing activities
• Strong familiarity of regulated laboratory practices, including GLP/GxP principles, Good Documentation Practices, deviation awareness, and controlled documentation
• Experience operating complex laboratory instrumentation and maintaining clear maintenance and performance records
• Sound scientific judgment, attention to detail, organizational skills, and ability to recognize and appropriately elevate technical or compliance‑related issues
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to document work clearly and communicate effectively across technical and cross‑functional teams
• Ability to work independently, learn new techniques, manage multiple priorities, and deliver high‑quality work in a fast‑paced, timeline‑driven environment

• Experience analyzing flow cytometry data using specialized software platforms
• Experience with statistical analysis, data visualization, or scripting tools such as R, Python, or similar platforms
• Prior experience in a regulated bioanalytical or clinical laboratory environment, including support for assay qualification and sample testing
• Experience with laboratory automation, liquid handlers, instrument integration, and Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS)

• Excellent full‑time benefits including comprehensive medical coverage, dental, and vision options
• Life and disability insurance
• 401(k) with company match
• Paid vacation and holidays

Position is full‑time, Monday‑Friday, generally 8 a.m.
