Senior Scientist
Location:
South San Francisco, CA 94080
Contract Duration:
12 months
Qualifications:Education Minimum Requirement:Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Automated Sciences, Computer Science, Biology, Chemistry or equivalent with scientific expertise with laboratory equipment in the development and execution of bioanalytical assays
Required Experience and Skills:
Experience with liquid handling systems - (e.g. Hamilton, Labcyte, Beckman, Tecan, Brooks)Experience working with or programming automated laboratory devices such as washers, dispensers, centrifuges.Excellent verbal and written communicationAbility to generate, evaluate, and understand scientific data generated on robotic platformsMust be self-sufficient and be able to hit the ground running
Preferred Experience and Skills:
Integrating robotic system schedulers (e.g. High Resolution BioSolution, Biosero, Thermo)Working in pharmaceutical or biotech company and/or laboratory experienceImplementing novel automation workflows and authoring operations SOPsMicrosoft programming languages (VB, C#, labview or equivalent)Electro-Mechanical design/assembly skillsUse of electronic laboratory notebooks
Responsibilities:The automation scientist in DMPK at South San Francisco will be responsible for driving the implementation of automated workflows to support pre-clinical studies. The Scientist will work collaboratively with other team members in a fast-paced environment to operate automated laboratory equipment and systems to support various DMPK assays. This specific position is a 1-year contract, and the individual should possess knowledge of the principles and concepts of various biological assays as they pertain to method development and sample testing using various liquid handlers and laboratory equipment.
