Biotechnologist in Production & QC

As a Biotechnologist, you will apply your scientific and technical expertise to support both production and quality control activities. A key part of this role is maintaining a high level of discipline in adhering to standard operating procedures (SOPs), approved test methods, and controlled documentation requirements.
As part of the Production & QC team, you will work closely with colleagues across manufacturing and quality functions, as well as collaborating with R&D departments to help translate innovative biotechnology concepts into reliable production processes. Manufacturing operations focus on producing biotech‑based solutions, while QC ensures consistency, reliability, and high quality through routine testing and in‑process controls. Strong teamwork and daily collaboration are essential for success.

Primary tasks include:

• The preparation, verification, and management of raw materials and intermediate products, ensuring suitability, full traceability, and compliance with established manufacturing protocols and quality standards.
• Planning, performing, and accurately documenting laboratory activities in line with regulatory and internal requirements
• Consistently following laboratory safety procedures and biosafety regulations to ensure a safe and compliant working environment

• BSc degree in Chemistry, Biotechnology, or a related field
• Intermediate English language skills, as the company operates in an international environment

• More than 3 years of experience in biotechnology
• Experience with biotechnology manufacturing workflows (upstream, downstream, formulation)
• Practical understanding of GMP and QC regulations

Personal skills
This role is well suited to individuals who demonstrate a strong sense of responsibility and a consistent commitment to working in a regulated environment. Clear and accurate communication is important, including the ability to raise potential safety or quality concerns. Flexibility in adapting to changing priorities or processes is valued, alongside the ability to deliver reliable results in daily laboratory operations. This role also requires effective teamwork, openness to new methods and technologies, and willingness to adapt to evolving regulatory requirements.
