Job description

Nuclera’s mission is to accelerate discovery by enabling rapid, easy access to functional proteins essential for research. The Company’s eProtein Discovery benchtop system accelerates protein expression and purification optimization in research labs.

Applying digital microfluidics alongside in situ protein detection assays and cell-free protein synthesis, eProtein Discovery enables rapid, scalable access to high-quality proteins, supporting both cell-free and cell-based expression methods. The system significantly reduces time and cost of these processes by automating construct screening, protein scale-up, and producing purified proteins for downstream functional testing in under 48 hours. The system accelerates workflows, achieving results in days rather than the months required by traditional cell-based methods.

• Find new suppliers for existing or new components.
• Coordinate and schedule domestic shipments across the US, ensuring timely delivery and proper documentation.
