Who is BlueRock?
BlueRock Therapeutics, a wholly-owned and independently operated subsidiary of Bayer AG, is a leading engineered cell therapy company using its unique cell+gene platform to direct cellular differentiation and genetically engineer cells to create a new generation of cellular medicines that address large patient populations suffering from neurological, cardiovascular, and immunology diseases.
The convergence of cell biology and genetic engineering is creating fundamental new ways to impact disease. Founded in 2016 to capitalize on these technological breakthroughs, we are advancing our novel cell+gene platform to develop, manufacture, and deliver an entirely new generation of authentic and engineered cell therapies across three therapeutic areas: neurology, cardiology, and immunology.
What Are We Doing?
Our foundational science harnesses the ability to create and then direct the differentiation of universal pluripotent stem cells into authentic, functional cells that can be used as allogeneic cellular therapies to treat a broad array of diseases. We can also further engineer these cells, enabling them to produce enzymes, antibodies, and other proteins for additional therapeutic benefit.
We are passionate about delivering on the promise of cellular and gene therapy, shaping the future of cellular medicine, and delivering new therapies to millions of patients with treatment options.
We are seeking individuals who are collaborative, thrive in a fun and dynamic culture, and are steadfast in the commitment to advance cutting-edge cellular therapies to impact patients’ lives.
Description of Position:
As part of BlueRock's vision to change the future of medicine by enabling ground-breaking cell therapies, the successful candidate will be a key technical contributor to a dynamic and progressive team focused on developing novel therapeutics. The Research Associate II or Senior will be highly motivated with experience developing and scaling cell and gene therapy manufacturing processes, particularly downstream (including medium design, harvest, formulation, fill and cryopreservation). The ability to communicate complex topics and assume a broad range of responsibilities is critical. Collaboration with a highly motivated, world-class team of scientists and engineers promises an exciting and engaging work environment for a talented and highly motivated individual.
