At AstraZeneca we turn ideas into life changing medicines and strive to continuously meet the unmet needs of patients worldwide. Working here means being entrepreneurial, thinking big, and working together to make the impossible a reality. If you are swift to action, confident to lead, willing to collaborate, and curious about what science can do, then you're our kind of person.

Pharmaceutical Sciences at AstraZeneca delivers the therapies of the future through scientific leadership in drug delivery, design of synthetic routes, and manufacturing of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) and drug products. Our portfolio of projects spans traditional small molecules, peptides, oligonucleotides to RNA based therapeutics across AstraZeneca's therapy areas.

You will focus on advanced analytical characterization of biomolecules such as peptides, oligonucleotides, mRNA and other molecules of high complexity. The role covers development of analytical methods, initial stability assessments as well as exploratory scientific initiatives. You will lead drug projects within your own function in the preclinical phase from an analytical, and biophysical characterization perspective. Additionally, you will serve as a member of cross-functional drug development project teams, representing your function and scientific area. You will work in close collaboration with formulation scientists, analytical chemists as well as biopharmaceutics experts in Gothenburg, Sweden but also with colleagues in Cambridge, UK and Waltham, US. Profound knowledge of the discovery and development phase as well as awareness of clinical drug development are central for being successful this role.
