Job Description

About the role
Help develop the analytical methods behind next-generation mRNA products. In this hands-on laboratory role, you’ll use your HPLC expertise to generate high-quality data, solve analytical challenges and support method transfer to QC and GMP laboratories. You’ll join a fast-paced team of scientists with a strong scientific background, working hands-on to develop and characterize mRNA products. What you’ll do
• Perform laboratory analyses to support mRNA product development and characterization.
• Use HPLC to generate reliable data and investigate analytical challenges.
• Contribute to method transfer to QC and GMP laboratories.
• Analyze and communicate results to project teams.
• Prepare clear, accurate and traceable technical documentation.
• Collaborate with colleagues across analytical development, process development, QC and manufacturing. What you’ll bring
• A PhD in analytical chemistry, biochemistry, biotechnology, pharmaceutical sciences or a related discipline, or relevant hands-on experience in an analytical laboratory, including a QC environment.
• Practical HPLC experience with macromolecules is required. You should be confident operating the instrument independently, preparing samples, and following and applying written protocols.
• Experience with capillary gel electrophoresis (CGE) and/or liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC-MS) is an advantage.
• Experience in analytical method development is desirable.
• Fluency in Italian and English, with strong written and verbal communication skills in both languages.
• Strong attention to detail, sound documentation habits and the ability to work independently and collaboratively. Nice to have
• Experience supporting mRNA, nucleic acid or other biomacromolecule development.
• Familiarity with GLP or GMP environments.
• Experience with additional analytical techniques such as DLS, ELISA and fluorometric method for nucleic acids quantification.
• Experience preparing technical protocols, reports, SOPs or work instructions. Interested in applying your analytical skills to mRNA development? We’d be glad to hear from you.
