Immunai is an AI-driven platform company focused on improving drug discovery and development by decoding the human immune system. The company combines large-scale single-cell immune data, advanced machine learning, and strong engineering to help pharmaceutical and research partners make better decisions throughout the drug development process.
As an Associate Scientist in Molecular Profiling, you will work in a fast-paced team alongside experienced scientists and interface closely with a multidisciplinary team of immunology, molecular biology, and bioinformatics experts. You will contribute to high-throughput profiling of clinical and experimental samples using single-cell multiomics, flow cytometry, and bulk RNA-seq.
Key responsibilities include:
- Augment molecular profiling efforts using single-cell library preparation, spatial profiling and processing (e.g., Akoya CODEX and Xenium), and flow cytometry
- Perform tissue sectioning and H&E staining to support spatial molecular profiling including Xenium
- Prepare high-quality tissue sections for tissue-based single-cell molecular assays (e.g., FFPEseq)
- Maintain complete, accurate, and timely electronic records of all experiments using an information management system
- Document, compile, and assist with interpreting experimental data
- Work with supervisor to plan project requirements and timelines
- Operate and maintain automated laboratory equipment
- Prepare, order, and maintain stocks of necessary reagents, solutions, and supplies
- Actively participate in cross-functional team meetings and communicate effectively with lab, computational biology, and software teams
