Senior Scientist / Principal Scientist, Biotherapeutic Engineering
Xilio Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biotechnology company discovering and developing tumor-activated immuno-oncology (I-O) therapies with the goal of significantly improving outcomes for people living with cancer without the systemic side effects of current I-O treatments. The company is using its proprietary platform to advance a pipeline of novel, tumor-activated clinical and preclinical I-O molecules that are designed to optimize their therapeutic index by localizing anti-tumor activity within the tumor microenvironment, including tumor-activated cytokines and antibodies (including bispecifics) and immune cell engagers (including tumor-activated cell engagers and tumor-activated effector-enhanced cell engagers). Learn more by visiting and follow us on LinkedIn (Xilio Therapeutics, Inc .)
SUMMARY:
Xilio Therapeutics is seeking an experienced and initiative-taking individual to help build internal discovery capabilities using display technologies. This hands-on position involves generation and screening of antibodies, proteins, and peptides to be used in the company's conditional scaffolds for the development of novel tumor activated therapeutics. This is a high-impact position with the potential to shape the future trajectory of the company. The ideal candidate will have hands on experience in display technologies such as phage and/or mammalian/yeast, and necessary molecular biology techniques.
Job Responsibilities:
- Build strategies for selection and screening of mAbs, protein domains and peptides using display from synthetic libraries (i.e. Phage display)
- Design and optimize strategies to lift immune repertoires from immunized animals to create immune libraries, manage and manipulate these libraries to isolate mAbs, sdAbs with large diversity.
- Generate libraries for display platforms for therapeutic optimizations such as affinity maturation, potency, and stability enhancements of antibodies, proteins, and peptides.
- Conduct in vitro discovery campaigns using phage dispay (added bonus yeast/mammalian display also)
- Conduct/lead campaigns utilizing display, and single B-cell platforms towards mAb, and peptide discovery.
- Design and execute strategies to amplify and clone antibody variable regions, protein domains or peptides from display libraries into final therapeutic format.
- Able to manage CROs and build workplans for synthetic library generation and/or animal immunizations.
- Lead/co-lead core discovery teams
- Represent Protein Engineering function at project team and group meetings.
- Maintain Laboratory stocks and reagents and serve as a mentor to junior staff.
- Keeps a detailed and well-organized electronic laboratory notebook.
- Stays current with literature and emerging trends in the discipline.
Skills, Qualifications, and Requirements:
- PhD in Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, Microbiology, Structural Biology, or related field
- BA + 7-10 years or MS + 4-7 years of experience in an antibody discovery team in the pharmaceutical or biotechnology industry.
- Firsthand experience in mAb discovery platforms such as display, and/or single B-cell is required.
- Phage displace experience required. Yeast/mammalian (including FACS analysis and sorting) desired.
- Experience with prokaryotic or eukaryotic display technologies
- Expertise in molecular biology techniques (PCR, cloning, primer design, plasmid preparation, etc.) is required.
- Handling and manipulation of cell cultures is required.
- Working knowledge of high-throughput plate-based processes is desirable
- Experience with plate-based expression in bacterial and/or yeast/mammalian cultures is desirable.
- DNA sequence analysis/editing is desirable.
- Familiarity with formatting scFvs and VHH/nanobodies/sdAbs is desirable.
- Ability to work independently in a dynamic environment. Ability to work on multiple projects in parallel to deliver results in rapid timeframes.
- Critical thinking, prioritization of tasks, attention to detail and troubleshooting.
- Creativity in approaches to complex problems and desire to expand technical skill set.
- Timely delivery of team goals and ability to build productive relationships with colleagues across a research organization.
- Experience leading discovery/research project teams a plus.
