About the role

Takeda in Lexington, MA is seeking an Analytical Development scientist focused on biologics characterization. You will independently plan, execute, and report experiments using LC-MS, peptide mapping, glycan analysis, and HPLC/UPLC methods to support product understanding and regulatory submissions. The role emphasizes hands-on laboratory work, data integrity, and collaboration with cross-functional teams, with opportunities to train others and contribute to technology transfer efforts.

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.
