About Nosis Bio:

Nosis Bio is a well-funded biotech startup exclusively focused on cell-specific delivery of RNA therapies. We are an all-scientist team of biologists, chemists, and machine learning experts who believe that targeted extrahepatic delivery is the only thing preventing RNA therapies from becoming the standard-of-care for most chronic diseases. We combine deep expertise in receptor biology, generative AI, and high throughput in vivo data generation to exponentially accelerate the development of RNA therapeutics for new tissues.

About the Role:

Nosis has developed an in vitro platform to rapidly screen candidate molecules. We are seeking a Research Associate to support and continue to develop these in vitro functions. The researcher will focus on evaluating drug delivery and efficacy in ex vivo immune cell assays. The Associate will also contribute to core Nosis workstreams, which involve modern molecular biology, screening assays, Next-Generation Sequencing, tissue processing and analysis.  Nosis has a culture that fosters continuous learning and development. At Nosis, you will have the opportunity to work on a challenging pharmacological problem at the cutting edge of machine learning-enabled therapeutic design.

What we are looking for:

• Solid foundation in laboratory research (2+ years laboratory experience, ideally in a biotechnology, pharmaceutical role)
• Hands-on experience with one or more of the following techniques: T cell isolation and activation assays, T cell co-culture and cell killing assays, ex vivo tissue culture and drug screening, fluorescence activated cell analysis and sorting
• Ability to work on site in our lab spaces located in Berkeley and Alameda
• Ability to thrive in a collaborative, dynamic environment and meticulously build and execute protocols
• Strong organizational, communication and interpersonal skills
• Excellent problem solving skills
• Undergraduate degree in relevant field or equivalent experience in the biotechnology industry
• Passion for accelerating therapeutic development and delivering cures for patients in need
• Experience isolating and performing assays with additional ex vivo cell populations (myeloid-derived) a plus

Nosis offers comprehensive benefits including stock options, fully paid health insurance, unlimited vacation, and retirement investment account options.
