Scientist - Antibody function and mammalian synthetic biology
Nabla Bio, Boston, MA, United States
Boston, MA
Wet Lab
In office
Full-time
Nabla Bio is building AI to design new medicines. We combine cutting‑edge ML with fast, human‑relevant lab validation to create biomolecules on demand. This lets us go after hard diseases and build new drug formats that traditional approaches can’t reach. We’re backed by top investors like Radical and Khosla Ventures and have forged significant partnerships with leading pharma companies.
The Role
Fueled by partnerships and increasing demand for internal R&D, we will be looking to you to develop and perform high‑throughput and multiplex cell‑based assays for evaluating antibody function. This will include:
Engineering transient and stable cell lines with diverse reporters in both model and disease systems
Collecting and analyzing quantitative measurements using flow cytometry, immunoassays, -omics (pooled, single cell), and other techniques.
Prioritizing top development candidates by functional and binding characterization
Working together with our dry‑lab and other wet‑lab scientists to establish a rapid and seamless testing pipeline for characterizing machine learning‑generated antibody designs
Qualifications
PhD‑level knowledge and experience in mammalian synthetic biology and cellular assay development
Extensive experience in molecular biology: plasmid design, single‑insert cloning, library cloning, bacterial transformation and culturing.
Extensive experience in cell line engineering and tissue culture. Includes experience with transient and stable transfections, lentiviral transduction, electroporation, and troubleshooting biological readouts. Experience culturing a wide variety of immortalized and primary disease cells is a plus.
Well organized, and enjoys establishing an operationally efficient engineering and characterization pipeline that works reliably
Problem‑focused, and interested in working in a high‑intensity, fast‑paced environment often driven by deadlines
Values unblocking colleagues before yourself, and is excited to mentor/train junior colleagues
What We Offer
A fast‑moving environment where you can build and ship tools that impact real drug programs
A small, focused team where your scientific and engineering decisions have outsized impact
Highly competitive salary, equity, and benefits package
Nabla Bio is an equal opportunity employer. We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and experiences, and strongly encourage candidates from underrepresented groups in science and technology to apply.
