Summary of Position:
The Scientist I/II will be an integral member of the Targeted Therapeutics Group focused on generating novel antibody-based therapies for the treatment of cancers. The successful candidate will contribute to the design, synthesis, characterization, and optimization of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), degrader-antibody conjugates (DACs), and other targeted therapeutic modalities.

  • Develop and optimize bioconjugation processes for ADCs, DACs, and related targeted therapeutics.
  • Synthesize, and optimize novel linker-payload molecules, directly contributing to next-generation ADC therapies.
  • Purify, characterize, and analyze synthesized molecules using analytical techniques such as HPLC, FPLC, LC-MS, and NMR.
  • Evaluate conjugation efficiency, drug-to-antibody ratio (DAR), aggregation, stability, and product quality attributes.
  • Contribute to troubleshooting, process optimization, and scale-up activities.
  • Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to advance ADC programs from early discovery through preclinical and clinical development stages.
  • Author protocols, research reports, and intellectual property documents, while maintaining high-quality electronic laboratory records
