About the Institute for Protein Design:
The Institute for Protein Design (IPD) at the University of Washington in
Seattle is creating a new world of synthetic proteins to address
21st-century challenges in medicine, energy, and technology. The IPD is a
unique interdisciplinary environment where world-class researchers with
expertise in computing and software, biochemistry, genome sciences,
biological structure, pharmacology, immunology and other basic science
disciplines, as well as clinical medicine, work together to both
computationally design and experimentally characterize novel biomolecules.
Current projects include the design of novel therapeutics for cancer,
neurological diseases, and more, as well as new vaccines, nanomaterials,
and enzymes.

The UW Institute for Protein Design is seeking to hire a *RESEARCH
SCIENTIST ENGINEER 1* whose duties will be to provide experimental support
for research projects as part of the Translational Science Program.  The
Research Scientist/Engineer will be part of a small team focused on the
biophysical characterization of proteins for both internal investigators as
well as external collaborators

Main duties will include maintenance of X-ray systems, X-ray diffraction
data collection in conventional systems in laboratory and using synchrotron
facilities. Additional tasks will include support high-resolution
microscopy and TEM, and helping with general lab support as needed under
supervision.

Candidate must have familiarity with high-throughput automated systems, and
a high level of aptitude for new technologies in X-ray instrumentation and
diffraction methods.

Candidate must have excellent organizational, analytical, and
record-keeping skills with the ability to organize and present technical
reports to collaborators, IPD staff, management, and sponsors.

Candidate must be proficient with sterile laboratory maintenance, and
familiar with BSL1 requirements.

*Minimum Requirements:*

   - B.S in Biochemistry + 3 months or more years of experience in related
   field
   - Candidates with knowledge in the use and maintenance of X-ray systems,
   familiarity with high-throughput automated systems, and X-ray diffraction
   methods.

   *Desired Requirements:*
   - Hands-on experience in the use and maintenance of X-ray systems
   - Experience protein crystallization and X-ray in-hose and Synchrotron
   data collection
   - Experience in Microscopy

   Application Process:
   The application process for UW positions may include completion of a
   variety of online assessments to obtain additional information that will be
   used in the evaluation process.  These assessments may include Work
   Authorization, Cover Letter and/or others.  Any assessments that you need
