    About Voyager Therapeutics

    Voyager Therapeutics, Inc

    (Nasdaq:

    VYGR) is a biotechnology company dedicated to leveraging the power of human genetics to modify the course of - and ultimately cure - neurological diseases.

    Our pipeline includes programs for Alzheimer's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Parkinson's disease, and multiple other diseases of the central nervous system.

    Many of our programs are derived from our TRACER AAV capsid discovery platform, which we have used to generate novel capsids and identify associated receptors to potentially enable high brain penetration with genetic medicines following intravenous dosing.

    Some of our programs are wholly owned, and some are advancing with partners including Alexion, AstraZeneca Rare Disease; Novartis Pharma AG; Neurocrine Biosciences, Inc.; and Sangamo Therapeutics, Inc.

    Job Summary


    As a gene therapy company, Voyager is constantly engineering novel AAV capsids which are changing the face of gene therapy for neurological diseases.

    Along the way, we are identifying the mechanisms which mediate blood-brain barrier (BBB) penetrance of these viral gene transfer vectors.

    We are looking for a talented and motivated Research Associate/Senior Research Associate to advance a new Voyager initiative by supporting development of other new macromolecular drugs which can leverage these mechanisms for non-AAV cargos.

    This is an ideal position for an individual with a background in protein biology, who has a can-do attitude and strong work ethic, and thrives in a team-oriented, fast-paced, and multi-disciplinary biotech environment.

    As a Research Associate/Senior Research Associate on the Non-Viral Delivery team, you will be responsible for experimental design and execution, data analysis, and communication of experimental results leveraging binding moieties, such as antibody and peptide carriers, for these cell surface receptors, as well as supporting efforts to bring this science to new therapeutic programs.

    Hands-on experience with biochemistry, molecular and cellular techniques are required. Prior experience with recombinant protein engineering/optimization is a plus.
