The Opportunity

We are seeking a highly motivated and creative Scientist III to join the Department of Antibody Engineering. In this pivotal role, you will drive the discovery and design of next-generation antibody-based therapeutics and spearhead initiatives to develop and implement cutting-edge platforms that accelerate antibody discovery and engineering workflows.
