Founded in 2004 by a group of PhD students as a spin-off from the University of Zurich, Molecular Partners AG is a thriving and steadily growing clinical stage biotech company located in Zurich-Schlieren (Switzerland) with 160 highly qualified employees. In order to advance modern medicine and significantly improve the management of serious diseases, we have developed and successfully established a powerful new class of potent, specific and versatile small protein therapies, called DARPin therapeutics. The continuous development of a broad portfolio of therapeutic product candidates in oncology, radio-ligand therapy and ophthalmology based on the company’s proprietary DARPin platform allowed a successful listing of the company on the SIX Swiss Exchange and Nasdaq (ticker: MOLN). Next to our own pipeline of drug candidates we have entered into collaborations with leading international pharmaceutical companies, including AbbVie, Amgen, Oranomed and Novartis. Our highly dedicated, multi-disciplined team is committed to bringing novel, life-changing treatments to patients by leveraging our innovative technology platform. We seek passionate, creative, and dynamic individuals to join our mission to transform the therapeutic landscape.
To strengthen our CMC group and advance additional DARPins from research into clinical development, we are seeking an experienced Scientist / Senior Scientist in Downstream Processing.
In this role, you will work closely with a team of talented scientists and engineers to develop robust, scalable downstream processes for DARPins, as well as conjugation strategies for DARPin-chelator conjugates used in our innovative Radio-DARPins. You will lead the transfer of these processes to Contract Development and Manufacturing Organizations (CDMOs) for GMP production. Further, you will contribute to the production and analysis of high-purity protein material for both internal and external studies.
For this dynamic and multifaceted role, we seek a highly motivated professional with a PhD in Chemistry, Biochemistry, Biology, or a related field. You should bring a minimum of 2 years of industry experience in downstream processing, utilizing state-of-the-art equipment and techniques. Experience working in a GMP environment and/or involvement in technology transfer projects will be considered a strong asset.
Partnership and collaboration are at the core of our company, our research activities and our product candidates. Molecular Partners offers an international working environment and the opportunity to collaborate with outstanding individuals from numerous disciplines, who contribute to our shared goals of scientific excellence, respectful teamwork and personal aspiration. We foster true innovation and creative thinking to advance our therapeutic product candidates and continue to be inspired by the difference we can make for our patients.
