About this role
Participate in dedicated training on purification processes and associated laboratory techniques. Execute purification processes in the lab using depth filtration, ion‑exchange and mixed‑mode chromatography (bind/elute), size‑exclusion chromatography, and viral filtration. Maintain accurate and complete lab notebooks, ensuring all experimental data is recorded in the appropriate repositories and formats. Contribute to data review meetings and provide input on experimental conclusions when relevant. Support general laboratory housekeeping to maintain a safe, organized, and compliant working environment.
Bachelor’s or master’s degree in chemistry, biotechnology, biochemistry, or another relevant scientific discipline, or equivalent practical experience. 2–4 years of experience as a lab technician or associate scientist. Hands‑on experience with downstream purification technologies, including depth filtration, ion‑exchange chromatography, mixed‑mode chromatography, size‑exclusion chromatography, and viral filtration. Knowledge of chromatography control software such as Unicorn (Cytiva) is an asset. Experience with analytical techniques supporting purification follow‑up—such as UPLC, morphology analysis, size distribution, protein quantification, or gel‑based analysis—is considered a strong plus. Fluent communication skills in both French and English.
