Our mission is bold: to revolutionise health management by delivering clinical-grade data directly to individuals, wherever they are.

We’re seeking driven innovators to join us in pushing the boundaries of biosensing and health tech, making personalised health monitoring a reality for everyone. To achieve this ambitious vision, we’re assembling the best team in the world - dedicated to turning cutting-edge science into life-changing, real-world solutions.

What You'll Do

• Work within the assay development team under supervision of a project leader to help discover new formulations and procedures for LZH lateral flow assays
• Further optimise existing formulations and improve manufacturing efficiency of assay reagent manufacturing by testing the effect of certain changes to procedures as agreed with your project leader
• Use technical knowledge of immunoassays to make suggestions of hypotheses to test in the aforementioned areas and solve technical problems
• Maintain electronic laboratory notebook to the required company standard, diligently recording data and observations from experiments you perform
• Communicate all work (progress, findings, observations, suggestions) your project leader and on occasion to the wider company in collaborative meetings
  
  
  
  

What You Bring
The ideal candidate must have:

• Relevant Scientific degree and extensive experience performing ELISA, LFA or other immunoassay technique. e.g. these techniques were the focus of a masters degree (rather than a technique used only on occasion) or previous work at a CRO, hospital or immunoassay development company as a technician or RA
• Awareness of product development, good laboratory practice and safe working in an industrial laboratory
• Be comfortable working with human samples such as blood
• Ability to format and analyse raw assay response data (derive concentration from calibration curve) and suggest conclusions
• Ability to perform basic statistical tests to conclude if observations are significant or not
• Ability to integrate quickly into a new team and work well with others, as the role will be collaborative
  
  
  
  

Nice to have:

• Recent experience working under ISO13485 or ISO9001 and GLP in an industrial laboratory, performing immunoassays or developing them
