What are the responsibilities and job description for the Process Development Chemist position at General Biological?
We are seeking a process development chemist to design, optimize, and troubleshoot reaction systems in our first-of-kind biomanufacturing pilot plant. Our ideal candidate has extensive experience developing separation processes for complex mixtures of small molecules. You should also be familiar with developing an executing analytical chemistry methods on HPLC, LC / MS, GC / MS, or NMR to rapidly assess and iterate through separation methods, and have some familiarity maintaining common analytical equipment. Familiarity with basic chemical synthesis techniques including but not limited to organic synthesis, crystallization, and metal catalysis is a plus. Additionally, familiarity with biological compound analysis (i.e., metabolomics) is a plus. You should have strong data analysis skills, or are resourceful enough to build pipelines for data from many different sources.
As GB pursues vertical integration, you will have exciting opportunities to contribute to end-to-end hardware, software, and process solutions. We are looking for someone who thrives on total task ownership, rapid execution, and interdisciplinary thinking.
Key Responsibilities :
- Develop and optimize protocols to analyze compounds from our biomanufacturing process on LC-MS, GC-MS, NMR, and other techniques
- Analyze time-series process data including data from analytical chemistry equipment to draw conclusions
- Maintain, upgrade, and assemble analytical chemistry equipment : be a true custodian of lab assets
- Contribute to the development of intellectual property by writing up novel concepts as invention disclosures and participate in the patent application process
