Who we are:
Novel Biotechnology USA, Inc, located in scenic Vancouver, WA, is a life science technology company on a mission to make cutting-edge genetic medicines more accessible. We are developing plasmid DNA biomanufacturing platforms that are safe, scalable, adaptable to complex DNA payloads, have improved product quality, and are many times more productive than existing systems. We deploy our proprietary technologies in manufacturing services that we offer to a growing base of clients.
The role in a nutshell:
Novel Bio is looking for a Research Associate that has meaningful hands-on experience in large-scale plasmid purification – from cell lysis to final formulation. This person is also motivated to learn new skills and would be willing to spend a significant fraction of time being involved in the upstream process by learning how to execute bioreactor runs.
What you’ll need to bring to the table:
· You have meaningful hands-on experience with large-scale plasmid DNA purification – This one is non-negotiable. You need to be familiar with all operations involved in downstream processing of plasmid DNA, including alkaline lysis, clarification, chromatographic purification (both IEX and HIC), and TFF. Familiarity with AKTA systems and the associated Unicorn software will be important.
· You are willing to learn upstream process development – Being mentored by our head of fermentation, you will learn how to execute fed-batch bioreactor runs. A significant portion of your time will support upstream process development efforts.
· The laboratory is your happy place – You love being hands-on at the bench, setting up new gear, and diving into experiments (from planning to data analysis).
· You are a cross-functional collaborator - A team player who is excited to work with others that share your love of science. Ego? Left at the door. Understanding the power of a cross-functional crew, you cultivate a culture of respect, are ready to embrace (and respectfully challenge) new ideas, and are not afraid to bring your authentic self to work.
· You’re all about flexibility and adaptability – You thrive in fast-paced, ever-changing environments, ready to pivot as project needs evolve. No task is too big or too small—you’re willing to take on a wide range of responsibilities and tackle whatever comes your way (both the glamorous and the grind) with a can-do attitude. You’re the kind of person who embraces the chaos, turns it into opportunity, and keeps the momentum going.
Why join us?
· Career growth: Entering the ground floor of a startup can be hectic, but is a great place to show your mettle. If you bring your A-game, your career opportunities will expand right along with the company.
· Impactful work: Forget being a small cog in a big machine. Your contributions will directly impact our success, and you’ll feel that every single day.
· One-of-a-kind culture: Our secret ingredient is our team dynamic. We know how to work hard and have fun while doing it. We have a deep mutual respect for each person’s role and contributions. You won't find stuffy bureaucracy or red tape here – just a group of passionate and talented people who are building something exciting together.
