Scientist (Technology) Job

SCIENTIST (TECHNOLOGY) needed for a contract opportunity with Yoh's client located in South San Francisco, CA.

THE BIG PICTURE - TOP SKILLS YOU SHOULD POSSESS:

- DMPK

WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING:

- The responsibilities of a DMPK-BA Scientist contract position are to develop and routinely employ bioanalytical methods for the qualitative analysis of endogenous small molecules/peptides in CSF, plasma, and various biological tissues using mass spectrometry in support of biomarker discovery.
- Responsibilities will also include data processing, statistical analysis, and dissemination of results to project teams in support of drug discovery and development programs.
- The candidate will work as a member of the bioanalytical group and will independently execute experiments involving sample preparation using automated liquid handlers, data acquisition on a state of the art high resolution FT-ICR MS and data processing/statistical analysis by supervised and non-supervised classification methods (eg PCA/ANOVA/multivariant analyses).
- The candidate should be able develop, validate, and troubleshoot methods/instrumentation.
- Other responsibilities will include electronic laboratory notebook keeping and communication of results to project teams.

WHAT YOU NEED TO BRING TO THE TABLE:

- The ideal candidate will have a proven ability to independently design and execute experiments by (nano/micro) LC-MS/MS and/or MALDI in support of biomarker discovery programs in a fast-paced environment.
- This role requires a good understanding of metabolomics and targeted/non-targeted bioanalytical techniques for the de novo analysis of endogenous analytes from complex biological samples.

BONUS POINTS! OTHERWISE KNOWN AS PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:

- Candidates for DMPK-BA Scientist/Associate Scientist contract position will have a Ph.D. in chemistry, biochemistry, or equivalent with relevant experience of one to six (1 - 6) years.
- Experience with independent operation of FT-ICR MS, as well as, various nano/micro LC platforms and automated liquid handlers in support of metabolomics is preferred (similar experience in proteomics acceptable).
- Experience with bioinformatics and/or biostatistics is a plus.
- The candidate should possess excellent oral and written communication skills.
