The Company
We are Alloy Therapeutics—a biotechnology ecosystem company empowering the global scientific community to make better medicines together. Through a community of partners, we democratize access to pre-competitive tools, technologies, services, and company creation capabilities that are foundational for discovering and developing therapeutic biologics. The company facilitates affordable, non-exclusive access to the entire drug discovery community from academic scientists, small and medium biotech, to the largest biopharma. At Alloy, we believe our industry should compete on getting the best drugs to patients as quickly as possible, not exclusive access to the best platforms. As a reflection of our relentless commitment to the scientific community, we reinvest 100% of our revenue in innovation and access to innovation. MAY THE BEST DRUG WIN.
Alloy is headquartered in Waltham, MA with additional labs in Cambridge, UK; Basel, Switzerland, and Athens, GA. Successful members thrive in our shared culture of accountability, deliberate trust, and open communication. As a team we aspire to work together to exceed expectations and collectively contribute across the global organization to always maintain our nimble, startup culture.
This is an on-site and full-time position in Waltham, MA. At Alloy, we have an ethos of “Mentorship-By-Apprenticeship” in all of our positions. We strive to have workers in the office when needed to interact organically and face-to-face. Of course, as a lab-based operation, our cells and animals grow 7 days a week, 365 days per year. We respect and value our colleagues for their hard work that requires them to be in the lab every day. We ask our people who have more flexible accommodations, like this position, to appreciate their colleagues who have less flexibility. We are all one team!
The Team
You will be part of the GEO (Genetically Engineered Organisms) Team and work alongside the wider Alloy ecosystem that includes our Discovery Services, 82VS, Bioinformatics and a wide network of partners and collaborators. The goal of our team is to develop innovative transgenic platforms to support the antibody discovery efforts of our internal groups and of our external partners with the ultimate goal of delivering the best medicines to the patients.
We’re a small diverse team and bring together varied experiences and expertise in the fields of mouse genetics, molecular and cellular biology. We work in close collaboration with our partners to develop the next generation of drug discovery transgenic platforms. The GEO team is backed by other functional groups and a robust network of collaborators and consultants, forming a multifunctional unit.
The Role
As a Scientist in the GEO Team, you will work as a part of the team developing novel in vivo models for the discovery of biologics including bispecific antibodies, single domain antibodies, and transgenic
T cell receptors. This role requires keen observational skills and attention to detail, data accuracy, critical thinking and collaboration with team members. The candidate will be using the very latest technologies and equipment to develop and characterize the next generation of Alloy animal models with the goal of helping others to make better medicines.
This role will report directly to the Head of GEO with autonomy owning various stakeholders, projects,
and tasks in a dynamic start-up environment while keeping up the pace of Alloy. This is you!
How You’ll Drive Impact
We support the individuality of what people need to do outside of work to empower them to do their best at work. While you focus on making better medicine together, we focus on programs and benefits that support a diverse and growing team. Whether you’re single, in a growing family, or nearing retirement, Alloy offers a variety of comprehensive and competitive benefits starting from day one.
