• Assess the suitability of existing methods and optimize innovative electrophoretic and chromatographic methods using CDS Empower software.
• Apply analytical methods such as HPLC and CE, as well as common pharmacopoeial methods (pH, color determination, protein content, and subvisible particles) as part of process development.
• Prepare meaningful laboratory reports in English, which also serve as essential source documents for regulatory submissions.

• Familiarity with electrophoretic or chromatographic analytical techniques (e.g. CE/icIEF/excipient determination such as polysorbate), ideally using CDS Empower.
• Interest in developing and optimizing new analytical techniques, e.g. using Design of Experiment (DoE) or Quality by Design (QbD); initial experience with method validation/transfer is an advantage.
• Basic knowledge of classical pharmacopoeial methods and experience with analytical methods for AAVs, e.g. DLS, as well as synthetic peptides, is desirable.
• Careful working style in performing test methods, data interpretation, documentation, and report writing; prior experience in a regulated environment is beneficial.
• Interest in digitalizing workflows, e.g. through the use of AI.
• Team spirit and excellent communication skills in a global context in German and English, to effectively build cross-functional relationships.
