Job Description

Overview

The Bioanalytical Sciences group at Alnylam is seeking a highly motivated candidate to join our team to help advance novel RNAi therapeutic programs from discovery to the clinic.

This individual will be responsible for managing outsourced efforts to design and implement fit-for-purpose methods across various platform technologies, as well as the subsequent use of these assays for nonclinical or clinical bioanalytical sample analysis to inform on target engagement, downstream pharmacodynamics (PD), pharmacokinetics (PK), mechanism of action, safety, and immunogenicity to advance RNAi therapeutic development.

The ideal candidate will have expertise in bioanalytical platform technologies and experience in regulated (GLP, GCLP) bioanalysis, with exceptional communication and interpersonal skills to effectively collaborate with multiple project teams and provide bioanalytical support. This is an exciting opportunity to join a vibrant team and interact with highly motivated scientists across a broad array of disciplinary expertise areas.

This position is onsite and will be primarily located in Cambridge, MA.

Key Responsibilities

• Provide scientific support for CRO efforts in the design, development, and implementation of a variety of analytical methods in a regulated (GLP, GCLP) environment.
• Serve as a subject matter expert in the application of bioanalytical techniques (LC-MS, ELISA, MSD, PCR, cell-based assays) to support PK, PD, biomarker, or immunogenicity objectives in nonclinical or clinical studies.
• Leverage depth of knowledge and hands-on experience with bioanalytical techniques to advise on assay design, method validation design, and interpretation of method performance data.
• Collaborate with Alnylam bioanalytical scientists to ensure successful method transfer and continuity in PK or PD biomarker testing from discovery through development.
• Participate in program team meetings, serving as a collaborative and reliable bioanalytical representative and team member to meet study timelines and drive programs forward.
• Participate in regular vendor meetings, provide critical reagents, review study plans, data transfer agreements, data and reports.
• Ensure delivery of quality bioanalysis data and reports according to timelines.
• Apply creative problem-solving skills to address any issues that arise during assay development or sample analysis.
• Review bioanalytical contracts to ensure the scope of work accurately reflects project goals.
• Participate in writing and reviewing regulatory documents for initiation of clinical studies (such as IND and CTA) and drug approvals (such as NDA and MAA).
