From Medra's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
At Medra, our mission is to use AI, robotics, and biology to accelerate life science research, with the ultimate goal of eradicating disease. We have been quietly building the foundational layers of our Physical AI Scientist platform:
🤖 Physical AI that can operate scientific instruments with human-level dexterity.
🧪 Scientific AI that can analyze results, reason about next steps, and close the loop autonomously.
This is an incredibly ambitious mission, but we believe that a team of ambitious people with high ownership can accomplish incredible things.
We are looking for a Scientist to join our team and to develop and execute antibody screening and characterization on the Medra Physical AI platform. You will support our tissue culture operations, design and run in vitro and cell-based assays to characterize antibody candidates, and contribute to building out the lab capabilities that make all of this possible — from new assay formats to the automated workflows that execute them at scale.
This is a role for someone who blends scientific judgment with hands-on craft — someone who has designed and run antibody characterization and functional assays in high stakes settings and is energized by the idea of translating bench expertise into an autonomous lab. You will work closely with scientists and roboticists to develop and validate assays and bring them into routine execution on our platform.
Execute developability assays to assess manufacturability and liability risks early — including thermal stability (DSF/DSC), aggregation and monomericity (HPLC-SEC), hydrophobicity (HPLC-HIC), polyspecificity/non-specific binding, and expression titer — and help triage candidates based on integrated characterization data
Ph.D. in cell biology, immunology, biochemistry, or a related discipline with 2+ years of industry experience, or a B.S./M.S. with 6+ years of deep, hands-on industry experience.
(OPTIONAL) Bonus Points If You Have:
401k
Medical insurance and dental Insurance
Unlimited PTO
Weekday lunches and dinners
This position is 100% in-person, you must be able to come on-site to our San Francisco office. We offer relocation benefits for applicants who need to relocate.
