We are seeking a mass spectrometry-based proteomics scientist to join the Chemical Biology and Mass Spectrometry Technologies team in the Technology and Therapeutic Platforms department with a focus on working with therapeutic area biologists to discover new drug targets and inform drug mechanism-of-action studies.
This scientist will collaborate strongly with chemical biologists to characterize off targets.
The successful candidate will have demonstrated success: 1) preparing samples from cells or tissues for expression proteomics, phosphoproteomics, and interaction proteomics experiments using either data independent acquisition or tandem mass tag approaches, 2) operating and maintaining nano-LC’s and tandem mass spectrometry systems, 3) processing data with MaxQuant, Spectronaut, and DIANN, or equivalent software, and 4) utilizing R-scripting and visualization tools to empower collaborators to interpret proteomics datasets.
Critical is the ability to clearly communicate their work with scientists from diverse backgrounds and design follow-up experiments for hypothesis testing to grow the drug discovery pipeline.
The successful candidate will provide key contributions to advance AbbVie’s therapeutic area programs, contribute to the development of novel therapeutic modalities, and innovate and expand the capabilities of the proteomics platform.
Key Responsibilities: Conceptualize, plan, and execute, all facets of a proteomics experiments to identify new drug targets or understand mechanism of action Operate and maintain nano LC equipment (various vendors) and current models of Thermo and Bruker mass spectrometers Prepare samples from cells and tissues for proteomics Propose and evaluate novel methods and technologies to prepare samples from limited amounts of cells / tissue and utilize automation to process samples in 96-well plates Interface and collaborate with colleagues and project teams in therapeutic areas to determine appropriate proteomics approaches to best address project needs.
Engage in external collaborations where opportunities align with team mission.
Maintain good written records of laboratory procedures and communicate research findings in cross-functional project team meetings, external conferences, and publications.
Mentor and enable the growth of team members Streamline and optimize current proteomic workflows while exploring and developing new methodologies Qualifications Basic: BS, MS, or PhD in chemistry, biology, biochemistry with typically 10-12+ (BS), 8-10+ (MS), or 0-4+ (PhD) years in industry Experience generating proteomics samples from cells and tissues for label-free and TMT-based assays Experience performing immunoprecipitations for MS interaction mapping and preparing samples for phoshphoproteomics Operate, troubleshoot and maintain nano liquid chromatography equipment and TIMS-TOF and Orbitrap mass spectrometers Ability to process data using various data processing packages such as Maxquant / Perseus, Spectronaut, DIANN, or equivalent Effective verbal and written communication skills with a strong publication and/or speaking record.
High attention to detail, creativity in problem-solving, strong interpersonal skills, and ability to successfully work independently.
Can-do attitude/team-oriented/open to tackling new challenges.
Demonstrated success using proteomics for target identification of defining a mechanism of action Preferred: Experience in advanced techniques such as: Proximity proteomics experiments Post translational modifications beyond phosphorylation Single-cell proteomics Liquid handling or other lab automation systems Mentoring / teaching proteomics techniques to team members Working on a multi-disciplinary team Key Leadership Competencies: Builds strong relationships with peers and cross functionally with partners outside of team to enable higher performance.
Learns fast, grasps the 'essence' and can change the course quickly where indicated.
Raises the bar and is never satisfied with the status quo.
Creates a learning environment, open to suggestions and experimentation for improvement.
Embraces the ideas of others, nurtures, and manages innovation to reality.
Position will be hired based on level of experience.
Sr Scientist I or Sr Scientist II AbbVie is committed to operating with integrity, driving innovation, transforming lives, serving our community, and embracing diversity and inclusion.
