This role is based in the MPS team at the Early CVRM department in our dynamic R&D site in Gothenburg, Sweden. The MPS team establishes and applies state-of-the-art MPS platforms to support the CVRM portfolio with emerging therapeutic area needs and new drug modalities. Our mission is to improve translatability from in vitro models to humans and accelerate drug discovery and development.

Responsibilities include:
• Develop and execute flow cytometry-based assays for cell characterisation and functional analysis including panel design.
• Take part in the design, conduct, interpretation, and reporting of studies with advanced cell models and MPS.
• Carry out various downstream analyses from cell culture samples with versatile in-vitro analytical methods such as, but not limited to, ELISA, qPCR, staining, and imaging.
• Join further model development activities to support drug projects with MPS and flow cytometry data for resolving mechanisms of action, target identification, and candidate drug evaluation.
• Effectively communicate and collaborate across the Early CVRM department and with key stakeholders in other functions.
Your profile
Essential for the role:
• Master’s degree + 4 years of relevant experience.
• Background in Pharmacy, Biology, Biotechnology, Biochemistry, Medical Biosciences, Bioengineering, or similar.
• Proficiency in flow cytometry, including assay development, troubleshooting, and data interpretation.
• Strong hands-on cell culture experience.
• Versatile in-vitro analytical methods (e.g., qPCR, staining and high-content imaging, plate-based assays such as ELISAs).
• Independent study design, laboratory work, and data analysis.
• Data visualization and statistical analysis.
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills in English, both verbal and written.
• Strong ability to engage and collaborate across boundaries with a problem-solving attitude and focus on delivery.
Desired for the role:
• Experience in 3D cell culture, i.e., spheroids, organoids, or multicellular co-cultures.
• Experience with one or more of the following cell models: liver, kidney, cardiac, pancreas, or adipose tissue.
• Experience in culturing immune cells.
• Handling microfluidic chips.
• Workflow automation, e.g., robotic liquid handling.
