· Develop and execute processes for DNA template generation, RNA synthesis and purification, and LNP formulation.
· Execute and analyze experiments to support continuous process improvement.
· Collaborate with cross-functional partners to ensure seamless process transfer.
· Implement and evaluate QC assays for DNA, RNA, and LNP-RNA (CGE, DLS, etc)
Qualifications
Required :
· PhD in Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, Chemical Engineering, or related field.
· Experience in nucleic acid production, process development, or formulation.
· Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
· Ability to work independently as well as collaboratively in a team environment.
