Title: Principal Research Associate, Antibody Discovery (Immunology)
About the company
Adimab is the leading technology provider for therapeutic antibody drug discovery, focusing solely on our partnerships without pursuing an internal product pipeline. Since 2009, we have partnered with over 140 pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, generating more than 650 therapeutic programs, of which more than 85 have entered clinical trials.
Role Overview:
We are seeking an experienced, self-motivated, and enthusiastic biologist/bioengineer to join our Antibody Discovery immunology team. The Principal Research Associate will work in a small, collaborative team to execute and advance Adimab’s in vivo antibody discovery and optimization platform against challenging targets. This role will closely interface with a variety of internal Adimab teams and work closely with external drug discovery partners. The successful candidate will have prior experience in immunology, biotechnology, and flow cytometry.
Responsibilities:
•
Basic handling and culture of yeast and mammalian cells
•
Murine and human lymphocyte sample handling and characterization
•
Primary B cell isolation using fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS)
•
Collecting, organizing, analyzing, data for a variety of internal and external presentations
•
Interpreting antibody characterization data
•
Construction and selection of yeast antibody libraries
•
Mammalian cell-based characterization assays
•
Quantification of antibody and B cell responses
•
Single-cell RT-PCR
•
Tracking and upkeep of lab reagents and stocks
•
Collaborating effectively with internal departments and external partners
Needed Upon Hire:
•
B.S. or M.S. in immunology, molecular biology, biological engineering, cellular biology, or a closely related field with 4+ year(s) experience in an academic or industry setting post graduation.
•
Demonstrated experience with basic laboratory techniques (e.g. PCR, stoichiometric calculations, molecular cloning, sterile sample handling, sterile tissue culture, flow cytometry)

Value-added Experience:
•
Significant previous experience with standard immunological assays (e.g. ELISA, flow cytometry), single-cell RT-PCR, and immune or synthetic library building and selection, would distinguish a highly qualified candidate
•
Significant yeast handling and antibody engineering background
•
Experience with the design and execution of mammalian immunization strategies
