Scientist

Full-time

Consultant Specialists, Inc. (CSI)

We’re looking for a detail‑oriented Wet Lab Scientist to support a high‑priority binder screening campaign for engineered T‑cell therapies. You’ll operate at the bench, driving the transition from binder discovery to functional validation.

What You’ll Do

  • Engineer primary human T cells using non‑viral delivery (mRNA, transposon DNA; electroporation/nucleofection)
  • Monitor viability, recovery, and receptor expression prior to functional assays
  • Run high‑throughput screening assays for binder affinity and function
  • Maintain/expand primary T cells and Jurkat lines using impeccable aseptic technique
  • Perform multi‑color flow cytometry; analyze data in FlowJo
  • Execute functional assays: cytotoxicity (IncuCyte, LDH), cytokine profiling (ELISA/MSD/Luminex), proliferation (CFSE)
  • Document all work in ELN with precision for data integrity

What You Bring

  • BS/MS in Immunology, Molecular Biology, Bioengineering, or related field
  • 2+ years hands‑on wet lab experience (industry preferred)
  • Strong aseptic technique; experience isolating primary T cells from PBMCs
  • Expertise in flow cytometry acquisition & analysis (required)
  • Experience with non‑viral transfection methods; comfort with automation/robotics a plus
  • Clear communication and ability to present data in fast‑paced sprint meetings
