Discover Your Role
Set molecular design strategy for bispecific and multispecific antibodies based on target biology, structure, and mechanism of action
Lead structure-guided design of novel formats, including binding-arm selection, epitope and geometry optimization, and chain pairing, using tools such as AlphaFold, Rosetta, MOE, and PyMOL
Drive protein engineering campaigns that integrate AI/ML and in silico design into iterative design-build-test-learn cycles with computational partners
Oversee high-throughput construct generation, expression, purification, biophysical characterization, and cell-based functional assays to rank molecules on activity and developability
Build curated engineering datasets and design rules that strengthen the bispecific platform across oncology, immunology, and infectious disease
Lead, mentor, and develop a team of scientists, partnering with internal and external groups to advance the pipeline
Apply structural biology to solve hard antibody and protein engineering problems, combining experimental data with computational and AI/ML-driven design
