Berkeley, California, United States CxT Discovery Full time
About CxT Discovery

CxT Discovery is a non-profit focused research organization (FRO) dedicated to launching drug-discovery campaigns against proteins central to human biology but neglected by industry. Our mission is to provide the chemical matter as a public good to assist the research community, empowering research that could bypass the current drug-discovery process to yield novel therapeutics.

About the Role

We are seeking a highly motivated, creative, and nimble biologist to be at the core of our drug discovery programs. The ideal candidate will combine industry-level rigor and team focus with academia-level curiosity and independent thinking. They will thrive in a fast-paced environment and be passionate about drug discovery, scientific communication, and building a company for success.

Responsibilities
  • Contribute collaboratively to target nomination and scientific strategy
  • Develop, troubleshoot, and optimize assays for small molecule screening
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with biologists and chemists to drive hit finding and structure-activity-relationships (SAR) for drug discovery programs
  • Communicate your science and engage with the scientific community to disseminate your results and tools
  • Maintain detailed and organized records of experimental protocols and results
  • Mentor research associates
Qualifications
  • Postdoc fellowship or PhD with 2+ years of relevant experience; or Master's with 12+ years of relevant experience; or Bachelor's with 14+ years of relevant industry experience in assay development and screening
  • Keen analytical and problem-solving skills
  • Technical expertise in molecular biology and cellular assay development
  • Experience in small molecule profiling and assay funnel design
  • Strong ability and interest in scientific communication and community building
  • Collaborative, communicative, and flexible; eager to do whatever is needed to help the team succeed
  • Unwavering integrity, accountability, transparency, and respect
  • Deep passion and curiosity for biological discovery on path to novel therapeutics
Professional Development
  • The goal of CxT Discovery is to publish our best and most impactful work—not to develop proprietary knowledge and trade secrets
  • Your work and contributions to our small team will be highlighted in papers and presentations to the research community
  • You will be plugged into a vibrant scientific community and network through the CxT Discovery founders and our collaborators at UC Berkeley and beyond
Benefits and Compensation

CxT Discovery provides a competitive benefits package that includes access to Medical, Dental, and Vision Insurance, Life Insurance, Short and Long Term Disability, Health Savings Account (HSA) and/or Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA), a retirement plan and DTO.

The anticipated salary range for fully qualified candidates applying for this role will be $90,000 – $120,000 annually (not including discretionary bonus and benefits). The final salary offered will be dependent on several factors that include but are not limited to relevant previous experience including duration and type of experience within the industry and education.
