Who we are
Olink, part of Thermo Fisher Scientific, is transforming the understanding of human diseases through advanced proteomics. We are driven by a commitment to innovation, quality, and transparency, providing exceptional solutions and support for human protein biomarker discovery.
For many years, the critical role of proteins in human biology has been recognized, but technological constraints limited comprehensive research into their potential across various biological processes and diseases. With our innovative Olink solutions, scientists can now measure thousands of human proteins simultaneously using just a few microliters of blood. Our highly specific and validated assays cover a wide dynamic range, empowering groundbreaking research.
Our services include flexible protein biomarker solutions, with a robust library of thoroughly validated assays covering ~5000 proteins. As we expand globally, we continue to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of scientific discovery. To learn more, visit www.olink.com.
Position Description
We are now seeking a Scientist to join our Systems and Automation teamin Uppsala with a focus on development and validation related to NGS sequencing instruments for our Olink products.
The Systems and Automation team within R&D is responsible for product engineering and improvement projects for Olinkinstrumentation product lines; and for automation and readout of Olink products using commercially available solutions.
You will work with improvements and development as well as testing and validation related to readout of Olink products, using latest NGS sequencing. This work is typically performed in collaboration with other members of R&D and often with the sequencing company. You will also be involved in other R&D activities, primarily related to the processing of samples in Olink products, using latest advances in automation and integration. The work is expected to include both data analysis using R and Python, as well as molecular biology lab work.
The work is often carried out in multi-functional projects, with both internal and external stakeholders, where several projects are run in parallel - a collaborative approach is a key for success.
Primary Responsibilities
As an employee in the group, your duties will vary across project phases. The main tasks will be:
Development, validation and testing related to sequencing instruments for Olink products.
Processing sequencing data using validated software tools and performing statistical calculations and compiling reports.
Plan and conduct laboratory work in accordance with set project plans and work schedules.
Documentation in technical reports and presenting results at meetings.
Collaborate cross-functionally with members of other sections.
Actively participate in project work and other development activities.
Qualifications
PhD degree in biology or bioinformatics, working with large sets of sequencing data as well as molecular biology lab work; or comparable experience.
Minimum 5 years experience of working with product development and/or design control.
Good computer skills in general.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
Strong team player with excellent communication skills in English. Swedish skills is a plus but not required.
Ability to handle multiple projects, prioritize and meet deadlines.
Soft Skills
We believe that you are inclusive, driven and pragmatic. You have an analytical mindset, are structured, and pay attention to details. It's important that you are adaptable and enjoy a high work pace. Please submit your resume and a cover letter detailing your relevant experience and why you are the ideal candidate for this position. The last application day is on the 12th of January 2025.
If you want to help to deepen the understanding of real-time human biology and are looking for an exciting new challenge, we encourage you to apply!
