Vaxcyte is looking for a technically experienced and collaborative individual to join our Device Development Team to lead development of combination products in our portfolio through the development and regulatory stage gates required for commercial success and distribution.

About VAX-31: VAX-31 is an extremely complex biological vaccine whereby numerous (31) Drug Substances are presented as an adjuvanted suspension Drug Product (DP). The complexity of the DP necessitates careful consideration for development of a pre-filled syringe (PFS) combination product for clinical and commercial use. The VAX-31 DP is a suspension, which generates a unique set of challenges for production, handling, and testing.
