  • Develop stable mammalian (CHO / HEK293) cell lines expressing recombinant proteins (e.g., rFSH, monoclonal antibodies, hormones, enzymes).
  • Perform transfection, clone selection, screening, and stability studies.
  • Utilize techniques like limiting dilution, clone picking, and high-throughput screening.
  • Maintain detailed records of vector constructs, host cells, and clone lineage.
  • Conduct productivity assessments (ELISA, SDS-PAGE, Western blot, HPLC).
  • Ensure regulatory documentation for master and working cell banks (MCB/WCB).
B. Upstream Process Development (USP)
  • Design and optimize culture media, feeds, and process parameters for batch, fed-batch, and perfusion modes.
  • Scale up processes from shake flasks → bench bioreactors → pilot scale.
  • Perform process characterization, including DO, pH, temperature, and agitation studies.
  • Implement Design of Experiments (DoE) for optimization.
  • Collaborate with analytical teams for titer and quality assessments.
C. Downstream Process Development (DSP)
  • Develop purification strategies using chromatographic (Protein A, IEX, HIC, SEC) and filtration techniques (UF/DF, TFF).
  • Optimize recovery and yield while maintaining product quality and activity.
  • Characterize process impurities (HCP, DNA, aggregates, endotoxin).
  • Conduct process scalability and robustness studies.
  • Support tech transfer to GMP manufacturing.
D. Cross-functional & Documentation
  • Collaborate with Analytical, QA, and Manufacturing teams for process integration.
  • Maintain detailed lab notebooks, SOPs, and batch records.
  • Present findings in technical reviews and project meetings.

  • Experience:
  • Scientist: 3–6 years (for Ph.D.) or 5–8 years (for M.Sc./M.Tech) in biopharmaceutical R&D.
  • Proven experience in cell line development, upstream or downstream process development for recombinant proteins or biosimilars.
4. Desired Skills
  • Hands-on experience with CHO or HEK cell lines.
  • Expertise in molecular cloning, transfection, and selection techniques.
  • Familiarity with analytical tools (ELISA, HPLC, SDS-PAGE, Western blot).
  • Knowledge of bioreactors (Applikon, Sartorius, or similar).
  • Proficiency with chromatography systems (ÄKTA, TFF units).
  • Understanding of QbD and regulatory expectations (ICH Q5D, Q6B).
  • Strong analytical thinking, troubleshooting, and documentation skills.
