Oatly was founded back in the 1990s and is based on Swedish research from Lund University. The company's patented enzyme technology copies nature's own process and turns fiber-rich oats into nutritional liquid food that is perfectly designed for humans. Today, Oatly is a global company dedicated to upgrading the lives of individuals and the wellbeing of the planet through a lineup of original oat products.

Oatly is a company built on the idea of change. Our mission is to help people upgrade their everyday lives and the health of the planet by making sustainable, great-tasting, oat-based food products accessible to a wider audience in a world-class manner.

THE ROLE

As a Laboratory Technician in Oat Breeding, you will have a key role in supporting the development of new oat varieties that will be used in Oatsome products with for example improved sensory and nutritional qualities. The Breeding and Genomics team is working with oat diversity panels, applying molecular breeding strategies, and performing a wide range of analytical assays to evaluate oat grain quality. The work is at both the low- and high-throughput levels, and will require technical accuracy/reproducibility and meticulous record keeping and communication skills.

This is a wonderful opportunity for a service minded laboratory technician to get in the game and ensure that we can develop the best oats for our products and the planet! The role is a permanent position and the work will be primarily based at our new laboratories facilities in Lund.

Here's what you can expect in the day-to-day depending on the season:

• dehulling and milling of oat seeds and performing various biochemical and non-destructive analyses

• growing oat plants and extracting DNA/RNA at low and high throughput

• performing PCR for genotyping purposes

• performing electrophoresis methods such as SDS PAGE

• continuously strive to optimise and miniturise workflows in a cost/time effective manner

• handling and preserving of laboratory samples in a systematic manner

• meeting deadlines and deliverables for the Breeding and Genomics team

• document, archive and present your results and observations with the team

• take responsibility for required inventory and order laboratory materials for the breeding team

• when needed, assist in the greenhouse, field and harvesting/threshing of oat material

This is the job today - but who knows what tomorrow brings? We look forward to hearing what else you can do! Oatly is still growing and so being comfortable with change in a high-paced environment will really help you grow in the role.
