Job description

We’re hiring: Immunoassay Development Scientist

Bioherent | Málaga, Spain

We’re looking for a hands‑on scientist to develop immunoassays for biosensor‑based in vitro diagnostics—with a particular focus on calibration, reproducibility, and batch‑to‑batch consistency.

What you’ll do:

• Develop and optimize immunoassays and investigate sources of variability.
• Establish calibration strategies, batch comparison protocols, and acceptance criteria.
• Evaluate analytical performance, reagent and sensor stability, and quality‑control trends.
• Analyze data and prepare experimental protocols and technical documentation.
• Work closely with surface chemistry, engineering, and quality teams.

What we’re looking for:

• BSc, MSc, or PhD in a relevant scientific field.
• 3+ years of experience in immunoassay development, analytical assay development, or IVD.
• Experience independently designing experiments, interpreting results, and troubleshooting assays.
• Experience with quantitative ELISA, fluorescence assays, calibration, or reagent lot comparisons would be particularly valuable. Biosensor platforms, serum/plasma testing, or allergy diagnostics are also relevant.

We welcome scientists with immunoassay experience who want to apply their expertise to biosensing and diagnostics, even if they have worked on other platforms or applications.
