About the role

Vaxcyte, a clinical-stage vaccine development company, seeks a Scientist II for Upstream Polysaccharide Process Development. You will design and execute microbial fermentation studies to develop and optimize upstream processes for polysaccharide manufacturing, with documentation of procedures, results, and conclusions for internal stakeholders. You will lead activities, mentor juniors, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and present findings.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
