Since 1980, we've helped pioneer the world of biotech in our fight against the world's toughest diseases. With our focus on four therapeutic areas -Oncology, Inflammation, General Medicine, and Rare Disease- we reach millions of patients each year. As a member of the Amgen team, you'll help make a lasting impact on the lives of patients as we research, manufacture, and deliver innovative medicines to help people live longer, fuller happier lives.
Our award-winning culture is collaborative, innovative, and science based. If you have a passion for challenges and the opportunities that lay within them, you'll thrive as part of the Amgen team. Join us and transform the lives of patients while transforming your career.
Pharmacokinetics & Drug Metabolism - Mass Spectrometry and Metabolomics - Senior Scientist
What you will do
Let's do this. Let's change the world. In this vital role you will be a part of the department of pharmacokinetics and drug metabolism (PKDM) within Amgen Research. This group is dedicated to the discovery and development of novel, effective, and safe medicines.
The Sr. Scientist will also implement bioanalytical methods for the quantitative and qualitative analysis of various molecular modalities (antibody-drug conjugates, small molecules, lipids, oligonucleotides, peptides, proteins, etc.) in plasma, tissues, and other biological matrices in support of the development of Amgen's innovative pipeline.
This role requires an excellent understanding of state-of-the-art bioanalytical techniques and an individual that can work collaboratively in a fast-paced flexible work environment. This position is primarily lab-based, necessitating most of the work to be conducted on site.
