Application Scientist (Biochemistry)
About The Position
When a researcher’s stem cell differentiation fails, months of work can be lost. When an antibody doesn’t perform as expected, a clinical study stalls. At Filtrous, we don’t just sell reagents and cell culture products. We help scientists succeed. As our Application Scientist in Biochemistry, you’ll be the expert who bridges the gap between our products and real laboratory challenges. You’ll develop validated protocols, travel to customer sites to solve problems firsthand, and create the technical content that helps scientists get results faster. Your work will directly impact research outcomes in cell therapy, diagnostics, and life science discovery.
Requirements
- Ph.D. in Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, Cell Biology, or related field (required)
- Hands-on expert in cell culture, stem cells, immunoassays, and molecular biology techniques
- Proficient with key platforms: flow cytometry, qPCR, ELISA, Western blot, cell-based assays
- Strong communicator: you can explain complex science to both PhDs and technicians
- Customer-focused: you genuinely enjoy solving problems and helping scientists succeed
- Willing to travel: customer sites, training sessions, and industry events
Nice To Haves
- Experience with iPSC culture, stem cell differentiation, or cell therapy manufacturing
- Background in antibody development, validation, or immunoassay optimization
- Track record of published application notes or technical publications
- Experience in clinical diagnostics or GMP/regulated environments
Responsibilities
- Develop and validate cell culture protocols, stem cell differentiation methods, and immunoassays that customers can trust.
- Travel to customer sites to troubleshoot failed experiments, optimize antibody panels, and validate molecular assays.
