Job description

What You'll Be Doing

  • Follow all applicable health, safety, and regulatory standards while performing laboratory work
  • Design, set up, and execute qualitative and quantitative experiments to support LC–MS bioanalysis, method validation, and downstream sample analysis
  • Prepare, extract, and process samples using techniques such as protein precipitation, solid-phase extraction, and immunocapture as applicable to the assay
  • Operate, calibrate, tune, and optimize LC–MS instrumentation (including Triple Quadrupole mass spectrometers and UPLC systems) and perform routine maintenance and troubleshooting per SOPs
  • Review, interpret, integrate, and summarize chromatographic and mass spectrometry data; identify data abnormalities and initiate appropriate troubleshooting studies using sound scientific judgment
  • Prepare documentation and deliverables including protocols, technical summaries and reports, GLP-compliant laboratory notebook entries, and data packages for project outcomes
  • Collaborate with Project Management and cross-functional stakeholders to plan work, communicate progress, and meet study objectives within tight timelines
