• Carry out protocols for various types of cell culture vessels
• Perform experiments to systematically improve culture efficiency and yield at bench scale
• Interpret experiment results and recommend new conditions to test

What you bring to the table

• Education in bioprocess engineering, biochemical engineering, mechanical engineering, cell biology or biochemistry
• Reliable hands
• Experience with bench scale bioreactors 
• Ability to adjust to new protocols, and troubleshoot/refine conditions

What we’ll teach you

• What it is like to work in a super talented startup group, where we challenge/inspire each other to do better for the collective good of the company
• Our current suspension culture process, for you to build on
• How to keep your focus in an ever-changing environment

Impact plan

• Within 1 month you will have learned Wildtype’s current suspension culture process. 
• Within 3 months you will have set your professional development goals for the next 2 years. You will have carried out a few experiments to improve our bench scale process for the purpose of increasing cell culture efficiency and yield. 
• Within 6 months you will have helped our group gathered enough data to narrow down on the process parameters to focus on in the next round of experiments.  You will also have been exposed to our new cell line establishment/development efforts.  Depending on your professional development goals, you will have started investing some time into training others on process development.
• Within 12 months you will have helped establish new bench scale processes for suspension culture of our workhorse cell lines to improve yield. You will also start designing your own experiments.
