Are you a protein scientist with a passion for translating cutting-edge biology into real-world products? We're looking for a Senior Development Scientist to join our client's team and help shape the next generation of protein science.
You'll lead the design and optimisation of protein-based assays and workflows - from early feasibility through to robust, scalable solutions ready for commercial deployment. Drawing on your expertise in protein characterisation, you'll generate high-quality, well-controlled data that drives strategic decisions and moves prototypes into reliable, reproducible platform-integrated tools.
What you'll do:
* Design and execute experimental programmes to develop and optimise biological and enzymatic assays, with a focus on robustness, scalability, and transferability
* Apply protein characterisation techniques - such as HPLC/FPLC, mass spectrometry, or related analytical methods - to inform and accelerate product development
* Translate feasibility findings into viable product and customer workflows, defining clear milestones and success criteria
* Lead and mentor a team of scientists, providing day-to-day technical guidance and line management
* Collaborate cross-functionally to ensure smooth integration of workflows into the wider platform
* Maintain high standards of documentation in line with quality management systems
