Eikon Therapeutics is a new biopharmaceutical company employing revolutionary technology at the intersection of chemistry, engineering, computation, and biology to discover novel treatments for life-threatening diseases. Eikon’s discovery platform is built on groundbreaking innovations from its founders (Nobel Prize, 2014), culminating in the creation of microscopes which enable real time, molecular-resolution measurements of protein movement in living cells, thereby unlocking otherwise intractable classes of proteins as drug targets.
As a member of the High-Throughput Biology Team, you will play a key role in pioneering drug discovery screening assays using Eikon’s proprietary live-cell, single-molecule high-throughput super-resolution microscopy platform. You will work at the intersection of biology, automation engineering, and computational science to design, execute and deliver scalable, reproducible, decision-enabling biological data that drives progress across drug discovery portfolios.
You are a highly motivated, rigorous, and interdisciplinary scientist who enjoys developing, optimizing, and validating live-cell imaging-based assays at scale to push the frontier of drug discovery. You are creative, data-driven, and skilled at problem solving in a fast-paced, dynamic, and matrixed environment. You are conscientious, detail-oriented, and organized, and are committed to delivering high-quality and actionable data in a timely manner. You are an effective communicator and teammate who is eager to learn and collaborate with people from diverse scientific backgrounds.
At Eikon, employee compensation also includes bonus and equity compensation, in addition to several generous benefit programs, including:
The expected salary range for this role is $123,000 to $149,100 depending on skills, competency, and the market demand for your expertise.
Eikon is proud to be an equal opportunity employer and will consider all qualified applicants for employment.
We are currently not accepting any new third-party agencies or firms at this time. Please do not forward unsolicited agency resumes to our website, employees or Human Resources. Eikon Therapeutics will not pay fees to any third-party agency or firm associated with unsolicited resumes.
Eikon Therapeutics is a late-stage clinical biopharmaceutical company advancing a pipeline of potential therapies for patients with unmet medical needs. We are passionate about novel therapeutics and share the belief that a better understanding of fundamental human disease biology can lead to better medicines. We are driven to go beyond incremental improvements. Instead, our goal is to introduce new therapies into clinical practice that will improve and extend life. Our clinical programs in oncology leverage immune response modulation and synthetic lethality to improve cancer therapy, while our discovery efforts are focused on identifying novel targets through application of single-molecule imaging to the study of cancer and neurological diseases. By applying machine learning algorithms to the very large imaging data sets that emerge from our imaging platforms, we can advance our programs towards our ultimate goal of discovering and developing better medicines.
Eikon is seeking intellectually curious, passionate, and creative team members that are eager to apply their talents to empower interdisciplinary scientific exploration and ultimately create and develop novel medicines.
