Design and polycistronic mRNA encoding multiple protein/peptide antigens.
Design and optimize mRNA sequences including 5′ and 3′ untranslated regions (UTRs) and open reading frames (ORF) to enhance mRNA's stability, translation efficiency, and ultimately, therapeutic effect.
Use mRNA design software to support mRNA design workflows and to analyze data and predict the behavior of designed mRNA constructs.
Implement novel methods for mRNA modifications to improve its therapeutic potential.
Generate intellectual property and contribute to regulatory filings.
Keep up-to-date with new technologies, industry trends, and research in mRNA science.
Requirements
PhD degree in molecular biology or a closely related discipline with 10+ years of experience
Extensive experience in mRNA design, including expertise in designing, modifying, and optimizing polycistronic mRNA constructs.
Proficiency with computational tools, including relevant software, algorithms, and databases for mRNA design and analysis.
Industry experience in mRNA design or related areas is highly preferred
Ability to analyze and interpret complex data from experiments and computational analysis.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
