Who you'll work with:


  • Michel Degueldre as your Manager and other amazing colleagues at transversal and global level.

What you'll do:


  • Support release and stability testing of Gene Therapy Products by developing, validating, coordinating, executing and/or tech transferring fast, reliable and QC friendly physico‐chemical assays.
  • Contribute and potentially lead assay development, drive results.
  • Crosstrain and provide support for upstream/downstream operations, inprocess analysis, characterization and vector biology teams (_e._ Vector Core, Boston).
  • Provide high quality documentation (procedures, protocols, reports) of all technical work performed in the lab in accordance with data integrity requirements.
