Wien, Wien, Österreich Merantix Vollzeit
What We Do

Countless people around the world are affected by immune-mediated diseases. Shockingly, less than 12% of new medications receive approval primarily due to insufficient pre-clinical knowledge of the intricate disease biology.

You're about to join a groundbreaking techbio therapeutics company aiming to revolutionize drug discovery within the realm of immunology. The focus lies on meticulously comprehending disease biology through iterative, causal exploration, commencing with authentic primary patient models. Our founders have penned numerous noteworthy publications in the precision medicine sphere, previously launched a precision medicine startup, and established a distinctive translational research initiative in a major pharmatech drug discovery firm. With deep-rooted backgrounds in both technology and biology, we grasp the distinctive and inevitable challenges associated with each domain.

If you're interested in collaboratively creating innovative technology that tackles a crucial unresolved issue at the core of drug discovery – exploring disease causal mechanisms using more realistic biological models before crafting therapeutics, then we invite you to join us.

Your Role
  • Execute target discovery and validation experiments to contribute to the development of cutting-edge I&I medications.
  • Collaborate on the creation of large-scale screening assays (functional, high content microscopy, multi-omics) as part of a unique lab-in-the-loop AI discovery system.
  • Develop screening assays to bolster early-stage small molecule discovery, encompassing cell engineering, chemical screens, and hit validation studies for hit-to-lead nomination.
  • Be an essential part of a flat cross-functional team that fully understands the challenges within each domain and is committed to making an impact.
  • Progress into a scientific leadership position as the company progresses, and effectively communicate your work to both internal and external stakeholders.
Your Profile
  • Hold a Ph.D. with a specialization in systems immunology, cell/molecular biology, or a related discipline.
  • Proficient in cell line engineering and standard molecular biology techniques like cloning, KD/KO, qPCR, western blot.
  • Experienced in systems biology methodologies utilizing CRISPR/Cas9/siRNA, cell-based reporter assays, or chemical screening with multi-omics endpoints.
  • Strong advocate for reproducibility best practices, emphasizing meticulous documentation of experimental parameters in electronic lab notebooks. Familiarity with advanced data management and analysis (R, Python) is advantageous but not mandatory.
  • Exceptional verbal and written communication skills in English (German not mandatory).
  • Solution-focused, determined systems thinker with a proven history of translating research into practical applications.
What We Offer
  • The chance to be part of an innovative, highly cooperative team with a significant mission.
  • Embrace a healthy, participatory culture from the outset: you will play a substantial role in shaping company decisions, culture, and strategies.
  • Competitive compensation package including salary, benefits, and early equity ownership with considerable long-term potential.

The headquarters and primary R&D will be located in the Vienna area.

In accordance with Austrian regulations, we list a minimum gross annual salary of 60,000€ for this role. However, the actual salary will be higher, contingent on the candidate's credentials and experience.
