01

Senior Scientist – Assay Development, full-time

Sorrento Valley, San Diego, CA

About the Role
As a dynamic, culture-focused organization, we are looking for exceptionally talented and highly self-motivated individuals to join our team to help us advance the next generation of Multiomics using our Cardean Transistors. The ideal candidate will have experience developing and optimizing a wide variety of assays and will be responsible for leading an exciting new project with commercial applications. For more information about our company and the broad range of applications for our technology, please visit our website, www.cardeabio.com. 

Responsibilities
-    Design and optimize different classes of assays including but not limited to immunoassays, small molecule, and enzymatic assays. 
-    Design and optimize sample processing, bioconjugation, and surface chemistries with responsibility for integrating those biochemical workflows with new products.
-    Support and perform biomarker (RNA, DNA, and protein) detection projects with key external partners
-    Effectively transfer assays from our Innovation group, through Development, to Commercial and Production teams.
-    Explain and present research results orally and in writing to include external commercial partners as well as internal presentations, external conferences, white papers, and peer reviewed publications
-    Perform equally well as a collaborative team member and a strong scientific individual contributor depending on project needs; be highly adaptive to changing project scopes and responsibilities
-    Stay up to date with relevant technologies and developments including those relating to molecular and cell biology, biochemistry, and biosensors
-    Effectively communicate scientific results and progress across cross-disciplinary teams
-    Contribute to building our culture that embraces inclusion, continuous learning, and improvement

Requirements
-    PhD in biochemistry, chemistry, molecular biology, or equivalent
-    3+ years of industry experience
-    Strong background with bioconjugation to surfaces 
-    Proficient in writing and presenting findings
-    Passion for working and learning within a scientifically and technically diverse company
-    Able to manage and shift focus between multiple projects
-    Experience across multiomics disciplines

Preferred Qualifications
-    Experience with biosensors
-    Developed assays for an automated liquid handler
-    Worked in a cross-disciplinary environment




Work Environment
The work environment characteristics are representative of both an office and laboratory environment and may include handling of viral and bacterial hazards as well as infectious or potentially infectious bodily fluids and samples.
 
Physical Demands:
Position requires ability to lift up to 20 lbs. on a regular basis. Walking, standing, and sitting for long periods of time (up to 75% of the day) are routine to accomplish tasks in this role. Specific vision abilities required by this job include close and distance vision and the ability to adjust focus. Personal protective equipment is required as posted.

About Cardea
We are extremely passionate about two things: Our talented team of Cardeans and our bold vision of translating real-time biological signals into digital information, which in turn leads to products and applications that will positively impact and transform our future. By integrating molecular biology with semiconductor electronics, we have linked computers directly up to the live signals of biology for the very first time. Using a biocompatible nanomaterial - graphene - which is a near perfect conductor as it is only one atom thick, we have patented uses of this material to gain a signal resolution high enough to listen into real-time molecular interactions. That means, our technology effectively taps into biology's internal communication to expand or replace current optical and static measurements with interactive live streams of multi-omic signals and analyses.  We're driven by this vision and we need talented people who share it, as we're rapidly growing and looking for talented people who are self-driven, enjoy wearing many hats, and thrive in a collaborative environment. If you think you fit our somewhat unconventional culture, please consider joining us. You'll be working in a dynamic, supportive, and enjoyable environment, with some of the brightest and the friendliest people in the industry. And you'll be helping shape a new paradigm in science.   
This position is not approved for relocation or sponsorship assistance.  Any questions can be directed to the Senior Director of Multiomics Assay Development at Cardea, Dr. Michael Catania, mcatania@cardeabio.com Contact careers@cardeabio.com with your resume if interested.
