A deep understanding of LC-MS/MS technology and proven experience in MS method development and application are essential. Additionally, the candidate should possess strong interpersonal skills and have a genuine interest in collaborating within an international team.
The ideal candidates should fulfill the following qualifications:
- A relevant academic degree (M.Sc. or Ph.D. in biochemistry, molecular biology, or related fields).
- Proven experience in operating and maintaining LC-MS instrumentation.
- Experience with proteomics workflows, from sample prep to data analysis, is advantageous.
- Expertise in Thermo Orbitrap and Bruker timsTOF operation is a distinct advantage.
- Basic knowledge of MS data analysis.
- Service-oriented personality with a strong team-player attitude.
- Strong English communication skills, both oral and written.
Employment conditions
The employment is a 2-year fixed position with the possibility of extension. The estimated start date is November 2024. Working hours are 37 hours per week (full time).
