Their ideas, big and small, genuinely improve the world. And that’s the kind of work we want to be part of. We are looking to recruit a Principal Scientist to join our Protein Function and Interaction group within the Protein and Process Analytics (P&PA) R&D team. We are seeking a highly motivated individual with demonstrated evidence of developing and implementing new scientific strategies in the field of biomolecular functions and interaction: cell-based mode of actions (MOAs) and cellular analysis’ study design, assay set up and data interpretation, with focus on delivering high value technical innovation both via internal analytical projects and as part of a wider global R&D collaborative project team. This high-level scientific position requires extensive experience in the area of functional characterization of new molecular formats biotherapeutics via cell-based assays development and experience in the area of 3D cell cultures and tissue modelling. Assay development experience in quantitative enzymatic pathways, flow cytometry and immunoassays is also highly desirable. Minimum requirement for this role includes five years industrial experience with developing functional assays that support characterisation stages of non-clinical and pre-clinical development of biotherapeutics. Alongside all the analysis relevant to the characterization of the biotherapeutic product, it also requires the ability to analyse and interpret complex data and to develop, optimise, troubleshoot, and support implementation of complex functional 3D assays. The incumbent will assume programme leadership within own discipline, be responsible for the oversight and execution of the scientific activities as part of the team, which will include element of laboratory work, scientific review, project leadership and management with element of coaching and mentoring junior scientists, technology scouting and driving implementation of new technology within the Lonza network.
