What you'll do
- We are seeking a bioanalytical assay scientist to support the development, optimization, and execution of immunology-based bioanalytical assays. The primary focus of this role will be cellular immunology methodologies used to characterize functional T-cell and B-cell subsets as well as innate immune responses in support of early vaccine programs. This position will also include routine laboratory and instrument maintenance and will be based in Springhouse, PA.
- Independently execute complex cell-based and immunology-based bioanalytical assays, utilizing techniques such as flow cytometry, ELISpot/FluoroSpot, MSD, and Luminex platforms
- Perform assay setup, sample processing, acquisition, data review, and first-line data interpretation with a high degree of technical rigor and attention to detail
- 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/FluoroSpot 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
- The site is not accessible by public transportation routes.
What you need
- Minimum Requirements:
- 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
- Desired Experience:
- 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/FluoroSpot, 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 escalate 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
- Education: a bachelor's degree or a postgraduate degree
