The candidate will report to the R&D Director and will be part of a team of experts working on the biomedical/biotechnological application of a new bioconjugation technology that allows to create different types of conjugates among biomolecules, drugs, nanoparticles, among others. The main Duties and Responsibilities of this position are:

- Responsible for conducting research on different functionalization strategies in order to adapt different micro and nanomaterials to our bioconjugation technology.
- Responsible for creating detailed Project Plans including scientific approaches and realistic deliverables with timelines.
- Detailed physicochemical characterization of the functionalized materials.
- Optimize the functionalization process in terms of reliability and cost effectiveness for a later scale-up and production.
- Design experiments, analyze data and prepare reports for qualification, validation and troubleshooting of the functionalization strategies.
- Takes part in the Intellectual Property strategy of the company and its implementation.

Requirements

- PhD in Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, Polymer Science, Biochemistry, or related field with 3+ years experience. Candidates possessing a M.S. degree in a relevant field with 8+ years experience will also be considered.
- Hands-on experience and knowledge in data interpretation regarding relevant material characterization techniques including DLS, zeta-potential, TEM, SEM, FTIR, UV-Vis, XPS, XRD, TGA, SQUID.
- A proven track record in surface chemistry and functionalization of micro/nano structured materials (e.g.: gold, magnetic and polymeric nanoparticles, quantum dots, carbon nanotubes, cantilevers, gold surfaces) is required.
- Broad knowledge in protein, nucleic acid, enzyme and peptide chemistry is highly desirable.
- Experience in the mono and multi-biofunctionalization of micro/nanomaterials with a wide variety of biomolecules including antibodies, enzymes, drugs, nucleic acids, peptides, etc.
- Experience in the application of biofunctionalized materials in the biomedical and biotechnological field is highly desirable.
- Experience in nanoparticle synthesis will be a plus.
- Candidates with industrial experience will be strongly favored.
- Strong verbal and written communication skills including a track record of publications in peer-reviewed journals and the ability to create and successfully implement experimental test plans
- Demonstrated ability to work equally well independently and as part of a larger multidisciplinary team.
- Self-motivation and strong attention to detail to efficiently complete tasks outlined in experimental test plans within scheduled timelines to ensure timely transmission of data to other project teams.
