The Role:
The Infectious Diseases group at Moderna is seeking a talented, experienced, and motivated Associate Director in Immunology to help establish antibody engineering capabilities and technologies for the optimization of antibody-based drugs across viral, bacterial, and fungal diseases. The candidate must have extensive experience working in antibody discovery and engineering. The ability to effectively communicate across internal multi-disciplinary teams and with external partners is required. Applicants should be outstanding scientists, collaborative team members, excellent communicators, and should be excited to work with cutting edge mRNA technology in the advancement of therapeutics against unmet infectious and non-infectious disease threats.
Here’s What You’ll Do:
Implement and optimize existing antibody engineering technologies, such as antibody display library generation and selection
Develop novel antibody engineering strategies and platforms to optimize both antibody Fc-region and variable-region functions
Collaborate with the structural and computational biology teams to evaluate AI/machine learning approaches for antibody optimization
Explore alternative antibody isotypes and formats to enhance antibody function
Build a toolbox of existing and novel multispecific formats
Collaborate with the mRNA science team to optimize methods for the expression and delivery of antibodies via mRNA technology
Maintain expertise in the field of antibody engineering, through keeping abreast of literature, attending relevant meetings, and liaison with external experts in the field.
Manage multiple projects and interaction with supporting functions.
Provide scientific and technical support for multidisciplinary project teams.
Prepare documents and present strategy, results, project updates, and summaries
Manage multiple experiments, projects, and interactions with supporting functions simultaneously.
Here’s What You’ll Bring to the Table:
PhD (microbiology, immunology or a related discipline) with a minimum of 7 years of experience in research and 5+ years of experience in the discovery and engineering of monoclonal antibodies with a preference given to experience in a biotechnology or pharmaceutical setting.
Experience in infectious disease is preferred.
In-depth understanding of protein engineering methods and technologies is required.
Expertise in execution of assays and clear communication of data is required.
Experience managing researchers in a dynamic environment.
Contributions to high impact publications and presentations in the field of immunology or antibody therapeutics.
The ability to work in a cross-functional work environment is critical; strong leadership skills and independence skills are expected.
Excellent written, presentation and interpersonal communication skills; ability to influence and collaborate in a team environment.
Candidate will be curious in exploring new path for drug discovery, bold in proposing creative experimental designs and ideas. Will work collaboratively with multifunctional teams and will be relentless in pursuing successful outcomes.

About Moderna
In over 10 years since its inception, Moderna has transformed from a research-stage company advancing programs in the field of messenger RNA (mRNA), to an enterprise with a diverse clinical portfolio of vaccines and therapeutics across seven modalities, a broad intellectual property portfolio in areas including mRNA and lipid nanoparticle formulation, and an integrated manufacturing plant that allows for rapid clinical and commercial production at scale. Moderna maintains alliances with a broad range of domestic and overseas government and commercial collaborators, which has allowed for the pursuit of both groundbreaking science and rapid scaling of manufacturing. Most recently, Moderna’s capabilities have come together to allow the authorized use and approval of one of the earliest and most effective vaccines against the COVID-19 pandemic.
Moderna’s mRNA platform builds on continuous advances in basic and applied mRNA science, delivery technology and manufacturing, and has allowed the development of therapeutics and vaccines for infectious diseases, immuno-oncology, rare diseases, cardiovascular diseases and autoimmune diseases. Moderna has been named a top biopharmaceutical employer by Science for the past seven years. To learn more, visit (url removed).
