All work in the department is performed under cGMP, and you will be responsible for finalizing service reports and entering work performed in the equipment database.

In addition, we expect you to have some of the following experiences and characteristics:

  • (Technical) experience with life cycle management of analytical equipment such as HPLC, iCIEF, CE-SDS, ELISA readers, SoloVPE, and qPCR instruments.
  • Experience working in cGMP settings according to European and US regulatory guidelines.
  • Experience in writing Change Controls, URS, IQ/OQ documents, and SOPs related to analytical equipment.
  • Capacity to prioritize your own tasks in a dynamic environment.
  • Good communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Ability to interact positively within a team and in close collaboration with other working areas when needed.

It is important to have a self-motivating personality with a pragmatic attitude and approach to daily work - without compromising quality.
