We are hiring a Scientist to join Helix Bioworks in Jersey City.

About Helix Bioworks

Helix Bioworks is a regional biotech and pharmaceutical engineering business serving Northern New Jersey since 2005. We operate 11 locations and have built a reputation for consistent quality and dependable teams.

About the role

You'll design and run experiments: forming hypotheses, planning protocols, executing lab work with careful technique, and recording results in detail. You'll analyze data with appropriate statistical methods, interpret findings against the literature, troubleshoot assays and instruments when results drift, and present your work in team meetings and written reports. You'll also maintain lab notebooks and follow safety and quality procedures that keep the research defensible.

What you will bring

You're rigorous about method and honest about uncertainty, with hands-on laboratory experience and a graduate-level grounding in your discipline. You troubleshoot patiently, document thoroughly, and communicate findings clearly to both scientific and non-specialist colleagues.

Send us your resume and a short note. We review applications on a rolling basis.

Required Qualifications

  • MSc or PhD in a relevant scientific discipline, or equivalent research experience
  • Hands-on laboratory experience with the core techniques of your field
  • Proficiency in data analysis and scientific writing
