Senior Scientist - Oligonucleotide Synthesis

We are looking for a Senior Scientist to join our team in Uppsala. As part of Nucleic Acids R&D, you will play a key role in developing innovative products that are used in the manufacturing of leading biological drugs. Your work will span the full development lifecycle—from idea generation and research to development and continuous improvement—while also contributing to troubleshooting and optimisation of existing Cytiva processes. The Uppsala site is a key hub within Cytiva, with more than 1,500 employees across functions such as manufacturing, marketing, quality control, and quality assurance. Collaboration is therefore central to this role, and you will work closely with cross-functional partners to drive projects forward and deliver high-quality solutions. You will join the Nucleic Acids section within the Genomic Medicine Operating Company, R&D Uppsala. Our team consists of 16 researchers working across production, purification, filtration, and analytical characterisation of nucleic acids, supporting product development to meet our customers’ needs. We are now looking to strengthen the team with an expert in oligonucleotide synthesis who can bring deep technical expertise and contribute to our continued innovation.
