Job description
About RASyn:
RASyn, a new biotechnology company launched by RA Capital, is building a proprietary platform of innovative technologies transform the discovery and development of breakthrough therapeutic, diagnostic, and industrial products. RASyn’s platform integrates computational protein design and engineering, machine learning, synthetic biology, and single cell sequencing and will enable cheaper, faster, and larger scale production and optimization of biologics, enzymes, and biomolecule libraries. We are assembling a diverse team of the most talented scientists and innovators who seek to invent the future today and have a passion for solving the most intractable problems.
About RA Capital:
RA Capital funds and builds healthcare and life science companies using an evidence-based investment approach informed by TechAtlas, a think tank within RA Capital which analyzes scientific and clinical data from academic literature and industry sources to anticipate how breakthroughs might impact industry stakeholders, physicians, patients, and policymakers. TechAtlas' analyses are captured in a unique collection of competitive landscapes, or ‘maps’, that identify competitive therapeutics, diagnostics, research tools, and/or technological capabilities in a given area.
About the Role:
RASyn is seeking an innovative, intellectually curious, and team-oriented Scientist / Senior Scientist in Protein Engineering, who is excited to work on advanced technology development projects at the intersection of protein sciences, synthetic biology, engineering, and microfluidics. In your role as an expert in Protein Engineering at RASyn, you will build, establish, and optimize cell free protein synthesis workflows, as well as contribute to the development of novel assays for high-throughput screening of a wide variety of proteins. You will support our cross-functional teams with your profound knowledge of proteins and be a key contributor supporting our R&D programs. As a member of a rapidly growing and very engaged team, you will have the opportunity to participate in leading cutting-edge research and development, and work with a highly skilled multidisciplinary team in a fast-paced environment.
