How you will make an impact
The Senior Research Associate, Analytical Development plays a critical role in generating high-quality analytical data to support the characterization and development of biologic products. This role executes and supports a wide range of analytical methods, including chromatographic and electrophoretic techniques, while ensuring accuracy, compliance, and data integrity in a regulated laboratory environment. Through strong technical execution, attention to detail, and collaboration with cross-functional teams, this position contributes to method development, troubleshooting, and overall advancement of the analytical program.
In this role, you'll have the opportunity to:

• Perform routine and non-routine analytical characterization of biologics under established or developing methods, including HPLC/UPLC techniques such as Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC) to assess aggregation and purity.
• Execute capillary isoelectric focusing (cIEF) assays to evaluate charge heterogeneity and assess product consistency, following approved methods or protocols under senior staff guidance.
• Execute and support quantitative analytical assays for surfactants and other stabilizing excipients, including sample preparation, data acquisition, and preliminary data processing.
• Perform selected microbiological assays (e.g., endotoxin testing) in accordance with approved SOPs to support product characterization and release activities.
• Operate, maintain, and perform routine troubleshooting of analytical instrumentation (e.g., HPLC/UPLC systems), including preparation of mobile phases, columns, reagents, and standards.
• Accurately document experimental procedures, observations, and results in electronic laboratory notebooks in compliance with Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) and data integrity requirements.
• Perform routine laboratory activities such as buffer formulation, reagent preparation, pipetting, and sample handling with a high degree of accuracy and attention to detail.
• Support method development, optimization, and qualification activities by executing assigned experiments and providing data and observations to supervising scientists.
• Assist with investigations of analytical issues or out?of?specification / out?of?trend results by executing defined experiments and compiling data, under the direction of senior staff.
• Collaborate with Analytical Development colleagues and cross?functional partners (e.g., Process Development, Formulation Development, Manufacturing) to support analytical testing needs.
• Ensure laboratory safety compliance, proper instrument calibration, and adherence to standard operating procedures (SOPs).

Requirements
To succeed in this role, you'll need:

• Bachelor's degree in Biochemistry, Analytical Chemistry, Pharmaceutical Sciences, or a related discipline with 2-4 years of relevant industry experience, or Master's degree with 0-2 years of relevant experience.
• Hands-on experience with analytical techniques such as SEC, cIEF, and chromatographic quantitation assays is preferred.
• Experience operating chromatographic systems (HPLC/UPLC) and familiarity with chromatography data systems such as Waters Empower and/or Thermo Chromeleon.
• Working knowledge of data analysis and visualization tools, including Microsoft Excel, JMP, and GraphPad Prism.
• Demonstrated ability to accurately document experimental work using electronic laboratory notebooks (ELN).
• Knowledge of GLP principles, data integrity expectations, and regulated laboratory practices.
• Ability to follow detailed experimental protocols and execute work independently within defined objectives and timelines.
• Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and ability to work effectively in a collaborative laboratory environment.
• Effective written and verbal communication skills for reporting data and experimental observations to supervising scientists.

Travel: May be required up to 5% of your time.
In return, we offer you:

• Full and comprehensive benefit program, including an Employee Stock Purchase Program and 401(k) matching.
• Opportunities to grow in a culture that prioritizes learning, development and progression through in-house programs and tuition reimbursement.
• A collaborative, innovative team that works as one to amplify your impact-on your career, the work you do and patients' lives.
