Key Skills and Requirements:

  • Degree in Biology, Biochemistry, or a related life sciences discipline.
  • Hands-on experience in downstream process development or manufacturing within the biopharmaceutical industry.
  • Proficiency in downstream techniques such as chromatography (e.g., FPLC, AKTA systems), tangential flow filtration (TFF), and depth filtration.
