Navinci (formerly Olink Bioscience) has a proud history of inventing analytic technologies for nucleic acids and proteins. We are dedicated to serve science with innovative ways for in situ protein analysis. Based on our proprietary proximity ligation technique, we enable scientists to accurately study protein interactions and modifications in tissues and cells. Our goal is to combine the latest technological advances and breakthroughs into kits and services for basic science, translational medicine, and preclinical research applications to accelerate the development of new diagnostic tools and treatments.
As we are now rapidly scaling up our production and product sales, we are looking to expand our team with the addition of a Production and Quality Control Engineer.
Reporting to our Production Manager, the successful candidate will be responsible for production and quality control of our unique laboratory reagent kits. Another vital aspect of the role will be to participate in the design transfer from R&D to Production by setting up new production and QC methods for new products.
The work will be variable and dynamic as we continue to grow and scale our product portfolio.
