Co-op, Discovery Biology

The Organization
What's happening at Entrada Therapeutics? Our mission is to transform the treatment of devastating diseases and improve patients' quality of life using intracellular biologics. Leveraging our proprietary Endosomal Escape Vehicle (EEV)™ platform, we are creating and advancing a diverse pipeline of oligonucleotide, enzyme, protein, and enzyme-based programs to efficiently target and engage underlying drivers of diseases.

Our novel approach to drug design and delivery addresses current challenges associated with both large and small molecule therapeutics and represents a fundamental advancement in the field of intracellular biologics.

We're a tight-knit, patient-inspired team of experts and leaders in therapeutics development and are excited to grow and attract colleagues who are ready to join a high energy, dedicated team that likes to get things done and dramatically improve the lives of patients and their families.
The Perfect FitYou should be a versatile, self-motivated, and looking forward to rolling up your sleeves, as you'll be involved in all aspects of oligonucleotides, supporting efforts for antisense oligonucleotides, small interfering ribonucleic acids and gene editing platforms. You should be ready to support our team of drug discovery scientists as we design, prepare and characterize oligonucleotide constructs and carry out analytical assays for functional validation both in vitro and in vivo.The Opportunity
In this role you will have the opportunity to be involved in a lot of different aspects of our discovery biology work, for example processing and analyzing samples from in vitro and in vivo studies will be just one of your areas of work. You'll be expected to work through techniques like RNA/protein extraction, RT-PCR, RT-qPCR, ELISA, and western blot. You'll also have the opportunity to maintain and culture cell lines for in vitro studies, as well as developing and executing cell-based assays for validating biological activity of oligonucleotide therapeutics. Lastly, you'll have the opportunity to prepare SOPs and other reports and publications.
The NecessitiesAt Entrada, our passion for science, our devotion to patients and our values drive our behavior:

• Humanity - We genuinely care about patients and about one another.
• Tenacity - We are relentless and persistent in the pursuit of developing therapies for patients.
• Creativity - We are creative problem solvers.
• Collaboration - We are more than the sum of our parts.
• Curiosity - We have a growth mindset and push conventional thought and theory.

To thrive on our team, you will need to come with:

• Your BS/MS in molecular biology, pharmacology, biochemistry or similar field with 2+ years of lab experience
• Hands-on biochemistry experience, such as RT-PCR, qPCR, ELISA, fluorescence microscopy and Western blotting
• Ability to collaborate with interdisciplinary team with strong communication skills
• Desire to work in an innovative and collaborative environment pursuing high reward science
