Cell Line Development Scientist

About This Role

This role is for a highly motivated Cell Line Development Scientist focusing on advancing next-generation gene editing technologies within a fast-paced bioproduction environment. The scientist will develop engineered CHO cell lines and optimize upstream processes, contributing with minimal onboard training.

Responsibilities

• Execute CHO cell culture processes across shake flasks, spin tubes, and deep-well plate fed-batch formats
• Perform transfection, selection, clone screening, and single-cell cloning workflows
• Support upstream development with high attention to process consistency and data integrity
• Run titer and basic downstream quality assays to assess productivity and cell line performance
• Collaborate cross-functionally to implement advanced gene editing technologies in CLD
• Contribute to workflow design, documentation, and continuous process improvement
• Maintain a culture of excellence, accountability, and meeting or exceeding timelines

Requirements

• MS in biology, biochemistry, biotechnology, or related field
• 1-2 years experience in cell line development
• Proficiency in Molecular Biology and vector design
• Proficiency in CHO cell culture
• Proficiency in Transfection & selection workflows
• Proficiency in Shake flask, spin tube, and deep-well plate fed-batch processes
• Proficiency in Single-cell cloning
• Proficiency in Titer determination and standard downstream quality assessments

Qualifications

• MS in biology, biochemistry, biotechnology, or related field required, PhD preferred
• 1-2 years experience in cell line development
