We are looking for a new team member to join our Screening and Automation team in Genome Engineering Department. The role is based at AstraZeneca in Gothenburg, Sweden, where you will join an international team that develops novel genome engineering technologies and applies these technologies for generation of therapeutic agents. If this sounds like your next challenge - welcome to apply!
Purpose, Offer and Benefits
This is a consulting assignment for approximately 9 months, starting in April. You will be employed by TNG during the assignment period.
Here at AstraZeneca, we are working towards turning novel state-of-art technologies into effective and safe medicines for severe genetic disease. We provide a stimulating environment for innovation and translational application of genome engineering tools. We continually push the boundaries of science to deliver medicines that treat diseases across our main therapy areas.
Your Responsibilities
You will bring your scientific expertise in molecular biology and innovative thinking to drive genome editing approaches that can lead to therapies. You will be a part of cross-functional project teams with various backgrounds and expertise, where you will contribute to development of gene editing strategies.
Accountabilities will include experimental optimization of genome engineering tools to facilitate efficient gene editing, developing relevant assays, analyzing gene editing outcomes, documenting, interpreting, and communicating results to relevant partners. You will collaborate with others to develop streamlined platforms for high-throughput screening and optimization of genome editing components. This is a very exciting role that will give you exceptional professional and technical development opportunities in this state-of-the art scientific discipline.
The Bigger Picture

* Strong molecular biology background and relevant hands-on skills.
* Expertise with mammalian cell culture and cellular assays, such as genetic manipulation
* and evaluating genetic & functional outcomes using next generation sequencing, qPCR etc.
Desirable for the role:
* Solid understanding of genome engineering and current technologies.
* Experience with automation and high-throughput application
* Experience with producing and using viral vectors (lenti/AAV) for gene delivery in mammalian cells.
