NorthX Biologics is a Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization that offers services and support in the development and manufacturing of biologics used as vaccines, gene therapy and other advanced applications. We have a long tradition of pharmaceutical manufacturing and have been manufacturing biologics to GMP since 1992. In 2021 we were recognised as a national innovation hub for advanced therapeutics and have expanded our development capabilities. This includes a new development organisation with cutting edge laboratories and technologies.
We are now searching a talented Process Development Scientist with a passion for upstream processes, bacterial fermentation and a genuine enjoyment of both hands-on lab work and analytical tasks.
You will be supporting customer and internal programs by developing and optimizing processes into scalable and high yielding workflows, suitable for clinical production of proteins, DNA and mRNA. You will be planning, executing, and reporting experiments working in cross functional project teams. In addition to process development, the group is also responsible for the production and delivery of research-grade material. You will also be involved in the preparation and execution of GMP batches for clinical use.
As you will be part of the entire process from gene to active ingredient you are technically skilled in fermentation and recombinant production of proteins, DNA or mRNA. Experiences in pharmaceutical development and GMP production are meriting, but for the right person and combination of skills, this position could be a perfect opportunity for transition from academia to industry. An academic level of MSc or PhD within a relevant field (Biotechnology, Biochemistry, Biology, Chemistry) is preferable but could be reconsidered if a relevant professional experience level can be proven.
