Job Duties Include, But Are Not Limited To

Execute phage panning campaigns against a range of protein targets, including challenging and conformationally dynamic antigens; design and construct immune phage display libraries from Llama and bovine samples. Proven expertise in phage display, including library construction, panning, and binder screening Experience displaying peptides, antibodies, Fab, and/or Fv are preferrable. Proficient in phage ELISA and binding validation techniques; perform phage ELISA and related binding assays to screen and validate hits. Analyze sequencing data from enriched libraries to identify high-affinity and/or conformationally selective binders. Familiarity with next-generation sequencing (NGS) analysis of phage libraries is preferred but experience of Sanger sequencing may suffice. Optimize selection strategies to enrich for binders with desired biophysical or functional properties. Experience with BLI (Octet) or SPR for affinity and kinetics characterization; background in antibody or VHH engineering and downstream development; and experience in working with diverse target classes, including membrane proteins or conformational epitopes, are all desirable. Contribute to innovation efforts in library design, selection methodology, and downstream screening technologies.

Solid molecular biology skills, including cloning, mutagenesis, and construct design is a must Strong experience with immune and/or naïve antibody or peptide libraries would be advantageous. Maintain accurate records of experimental design, results, and interpretations in electronic lab notebooks.

Job Requirements Include, But Are Not Limited To

M.S. or PhD with 3+ years of relevant experience; industrial experience would be advantageous. Thorough understanding of the theory of above-mentioned techniques. Team player mentality with strong written and verbal communication skills. Will be required to work collaboratively with cross-functional teams including structural biology, molecular biology, biochemistry, and biophysics. The ideal candidate will be enthusiastic and self-motivated, with the leadership and communication skills necessary to operate effectively in a fast-paced multidisciplinary environment with flexibility and an adaptable approach to goal delivery.
