Bench Scientist II

System One delivers outsourced services and workforce solutions across North America, supporting clients through efficient and economical workforce solutions. The Bench Scientist II will support biopharmaceutical assay development through hands-on laboratory work, including ELISA/MSD testing, reagent preparation, experimental documentation, and laboratory automation workflows.

Responsibilities

Support laboratory based assay development activities by performing day to day bench work

Run ELISA assays as part of evolving and novel method workflows (not a QC lab role)

Follow experimental protocols and contribute to experiments by asking appropriate scientific questions

Perform strong basic laboratory skills, including pipetting, buffer preparation, and general lab techniques and documentation

Support assay development concepts such as antibody titration, optimization, and sub-saturating conditions

Prepare and characterize reagents, including antibody biotinylation and HABA assay or equivalent techniques

Assist with laboratory automation workflows (e.g., Hamilton, Integra, or similar systems) when applicable

Use or contribute to LIMS / electronic lab notebook processes as part of experiment documentation

Maintain accurate documentation using Microsoft Office (Excel, Word) as needed
