Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc
Scientist (Emulsion Chemistry)
Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc, Pleasanton, California, United States, 94566
At Bio-Rad Pleasanton digital biology site we use microfluidic chips to generate nanoliter-sized droplets as reaction vessels to power an extremely precise digital nucleic acid measurement method (droplet digital PCR). Now that we've solidified our market lead in digital PCR, we're expanding into new applications for our core technology. Our partition technology will open up new avenues in basic life sciences research and will become a new paradigm in clinical diagnostics.
At the heart of our digital technology is the ability to stabilize an aqueous droplet in engineered fluid through designing and synthesizing novel surfactants. These unique surfactants allow us to control and alter interfacial properties whereby we can enable and catalyze unique in-droplet chemistries. In turn these chemistries enable novel applications in the digital biology space.
If you're a R&D chemist who thrives on pushing back the boundaries of the unknown; relishes the opportunity to work in a multidisciplinary team environment; and, thrilled by personally taking your ideas from white board to full product release, please read on!
How You’ll Make An Impact:
Perform established synthesis protocol to generate surfactants for use in microfluidic emulsion-based technologies.
Perform various analytical QC ranging from droplet metrology to ddPCR functional testing.
Responsible for conducting ddPCR experiments, analyzing and interpreting data, as well as communicating and presenting results to team members.
Responsible for preparing technical summaries and internal protocols to support projects and manufacturing needs.
What You Bring:
Education/Work Experience: MS in Chemistry with 3+ years of industrial experience or BS with 6+ years of industrial experience.
Must have anhydrous chemistry and organic synthesis experience.
Background in molecular biology and hand on digital PCR experience.
Skilled at writing clear plans, reports and SOPs.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills, logical and analytical thinking, and the ability to learn, troubleshoot, and problem solve are essential.
