Haemme lääketehtaamme osaavaan ja kasvavaan joukkoon tuotannon operaattoreita Bufferin, Upstreamin, Downstreamin sekä Drug Productin tiimeihin.

Taustaltasi voit olla esimerkiksi laborantti, bioanalyytikko, vastavalmistunut maisteri (esim. kemia, solu- ja molekyylibiologia, biolääketiede) tai prosessiteollisuuden perustutkinnon suorittanut.

Buffer-tiimissä valmistamme kaikki tuotannossa käyttämämme liokset, Upstream-tiimissä aloitamme tuotantoprosessin soluviljelyllä ja jatkamme solujen kasvattamista bioreaktoreissa. Prosessin aikana solut infektoidaan ja lopulta kerätään talteen. Upstreamista tuote siirtyy Downstream-tiimille, joka puolestaan puhdistaa tuotteen kromatografisilla menetelmillä niin, että tuote on vihdoin valmis täytettäväksi lääkepulloihin. Drug Product -tiimi keskittyy aseptiseen täyttämiseen ja tuotteen loppuvaiheen toimenpiteisiin kuten formulointiin, fillingiin sekä pakkaamiseen liittyviin toimintoihin. Drug Product -tiimissä taustasi voi olla myös esimerkiksi farmaseutti.

Jos olet työotteeltasi tarkka ja järjestelmällinen etkä pelkää laitteita tai haasteita ja muuttuvia tilanteita, sinulla on hyvät edellytykset sopia joukkoon. Etsimme henkilöä, joka viihtyy käytännön laboratoriotyössä sekä lääketeollisuudelle tyypillisen tarkan dokumentaatiotyön parissa. Meillä on työkielenä pääasiassa englanti, joten sinun tulisi pystyä seuraaman englanninkielisiä työohjeita sekä kommunikoimaan tarvittaessa englanniksi. Ennen kaikkea etsimme kuitenkin mukavia työkavereita, joilla on can do -asenne.

Tilanteesta ja tiimistä riippuen meillä on tarjolla määräaikaisia ja toistaiseksi voimassa olevia työsuhteita ja toivoisimme sinun pystyvän aloittamaan tammikuussa tai helmikuussa. Meillä tehdään töitä 2-vuorotyönä ja osittain myös viikonloppuisin. Myöhemmin tulevaisuudessa työ voi olla myös 3-vuorotyötä.

Tarjoamme sinulle dynaamisen ja kansainvälisen työyhteisön. Tuemme fyysistä ja henkistä hyvinvointiasi hyvällä työterveyshuollon palveluvalikoimalla sekä ePassi-tilillä. Lisäksi tarjoamme sinulle kehittymismahdollisuuksia, laajan perehdytyskoulutuksen ja lämpimän vastaanoton. Ennen kaikkea pääset osalliseksi mahtavaa työporukkaa! ​FinVector sijaitsee elämää sykkivässä Kuopiossa, joka tarjoaa asukkailleen turvallisen elinympäristön, ystävällisen ilmapiirin ja puhtaan luonnon.

to join a research project headed by Professor Peppi Karppinen in the ECM & Hypoxia Research Unit, in Biocenter Oulu and Faculty of Biochemistry and Molecular Medicine. The position is fixed time for period of 01.01.2023-31.12.2023.

Our research focuses on the enzyme family of 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases (2OGDDs) and their potential as therapeutic targets. Our main interests are in the hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl 4-hydroxylases, P4H-TM, histone lysine demethylases (KDMs) and some understudied 2OGDDs with disease connections. We use biochemical, enzymological, cell biological and genetic mouse models to understand how these enzymes regulate normal physiological and developmental processes. In addition, we study their inhibition as a potential therapeutic option in selected pathological conditions, with main focus currently on obesity, metabolic dysfunction, aging and cancer.
