Research Scientist
At AstraZeneca we use scientific excellence as the foundation to drive success of our drug discovery pipeline. Such excellence stems from strong collaboration, clear direction and a focus on applying cutting-edge research to support drug discovery.

An opportunity is now available for a highly motivated Research Scientist to join the Protein Expression Team within the Discovery Sciences Innovative Medicine (IMED) Biotech Unit in Gothenburg, Sweden. Leading from the bench, you will apply proven skills in molecular biology, recombinant protein and cell culture, a passion for investigating scientific questions, combined with strong team working ethics, to drug discovery projects. You will join our team whose remit is to support IMED projects globally with delivery of impactful recombinant protein reagents used for disease target identification and validation right through to clinical candidate evaluation.

As part of a team within the Discovery Sciences organisation, you will be working within a vibrant scientific environment to support drug discovery. We push scientific advances in small molecules, oligonucleotides as well as other emerging technologies, always with a view to providing medicines to improve patient care. The Discovery Biology Department of Discovery Sciences is responsible for the generation of novel reagents and assays to support projects in the drug discovery pipeline from target discovery all the way to clinical candidate.

Main Duties & Responsibilities

This is a lab-based role, generating bespoke protein reagents to support projects in all phases of the discovery process. The role involves application of leading molecular biology techniques to design and make expression constructs, producing recombinant proteins that impact projects, as well as troubleshooting.
