Om jobbet
TATAA Biocenter • Gothenburg, Sweden • On-site • Full-time
TATAA Biocenter is seeking an experienced scientist to lead our molecular and genomics biomarker bioanalysis team. This is a senior, hands-on role for a bioanalytical subject-matter expert who can own biomarker assay work end to end, from development and validation through GLP/GCLP sample analysis - in support of sponsors’ preclinical and clinical programs, with a particular focus on gene and cell therapy. Are you motivated by bioanalytical challenges and want to shape an important assay capability within a growing, accredited CRO with an international client base? We would like to hear from you!
Who Are We?
In this role, you will split your time between hands-on NGS work and project management - as comfortable leading a project as running an experiment. TATAA Biocenter is a specialized molecular-analysis CRO supporting pharmaceutical and biotech sponsors worldwide. Our laboratory is GCLP-compliant and accredited under GLP and ISO 17025:2017, with deep expertise in qPCR, dPCR, RNA-seq/NGS, and Olink. We are a team of 15 scientists working closely together to help sponsors get the best out of their preclinical and clinical programs — united by a shared mission to accelerate innovations in precision medicine.
What You Will Do?
- Lead and develop the molecular and genomics biomarker team, setting its scientific and operational direction.
- Own biomarker assay development, qualification, and validation across qPCR, dPCR, RNA-seq, and Olink.
- Act as bioanalytical PI / scientific lead on sponsor studies, including gene- and cell-therapy, biodistribution, and shedding programs.
- Contribute to sponsor proposals and experimental design, helping win and scope new work as a scientific lead.
- Stand behind assay development, validation, and sample analysis during regulatory audits and inspections.
- Ensure GLP/GCLP-compliant documentation, data integrity, and continuous audit readiness.
- Serve as the bioanalytical point of contact and subject-matter expert for sponsors and colleagues.
Who Are We Looking For?
Essential
- You have a proven track record in molecular and genomics biomarker assay development and validation.
- You have NGS experience relevant for gene and cell therapy - typically one or more of: RNA-seq for transgene expression and transcriptomic biomarkers., Integration-site analysis for lentiviral / retroviral vectors., AAV vector genome and capsid sequence confirmation, and impurity profiling., Targeted panels or WGS for off-target editing analysis in gene-editing programs.
- You hold a PhD in a relevant field, with significant industry experience (e.g., 2+ years in a CRO or pharma bioanalytical setting).
- You have hands-on qPCR and dPCR expertise across preclinical and clinical settings.
- You have expertise in biodistribution and shedding studies for advanced drug modalities.
- You can stand behind your assay work in front of auditors and inspectors (GLP/GCLP; OECD GxP a strong plus).
- You are organized and meticulous, essential in a regulated laboratory - and process excellent English communication skills (both written and oral).
Preferred
- Olink experience is an advantage, though not required.
- You bring scientific leadership and seniority to lead and mentor a specialized team.
Why Join TATAA?
- Ownership of a specialized molecular and genomics biomarker capability, and the responsibility to shape how it develops.
- Scientific breadth across advanced drug modalities, including gene and cell therapy, biodistribution, and shedding studies.
- A senior leadership role within a growing, accredited molecular-analysis CRO.
