Jobbeschreibung

We're looking for a Senior R&D Lab Engineer to join our forward-thinking, dynamic team and support the development of game-changing sensor systems for the biopharmaceutical industry. Do you want to be part of a fast growing company of 15, that's shaping new possibilities in the field? Come join us at ArgusEye and be part of our journey!

About the role

You’ll be part of a small but growing R&D team of six people dedicated to our sensor development. Your primary focus will be the development of new sensor chips — a role where your ideas and skills will directly influence the future of our technology. This means planning, designing, and executing experiments related to sensor development and characterization, as well as improving existing solutions. You’ll get hands‑on with manufacturing processes, using techniques such as HPLC and other analytical methodologies to evaluate sensor performance. As a Senior R&D Engineer you will also act as a sounding board for your colleagues with your extensive practical and theoretical knowledge. You’ll contribute not only to the development of our technology — but also to shaping how we work, build collaborations, and drive our future growth.

What you'll do

• Plan, design, and independently execute experiments for application development and evaluation of sensor chips in various applications while driving scientific direction and development decisions based on previous experience and experimental outcomes.
• Generate and critically evaluate high-quality data to support the development of better data models and guide future project decisions.
• Contribute with ideas and concepts for sensor chip design and fabrication, acting as a scientific sounding board for colleagues through your in-depth technical insight and independent thinking.
• Prepare scientific reports, protocols, and presentations for internal and external stakeholders, clearly communicating findings, recommendations, and next steps.
• Perform regular lab maintenance to ensure a clean and safe work environment.
• Collaborate closely with other team members to successfully integrate sensor chips into our systems.

We’re looking for someone who..

…loves lab work and believes that great technology starts with curiosity and experimentation. With a passion for problem-solving, innovation, and scientific exploration, you thrive in a collaborative environment and want to be part of a team where innovation happens every day, and where you can help shape both technology and company culture.

About you

• PhD or Master’s degree in Bioprocess Engineering, Biotechnology, Organic Chemistry, Material Science, Nanomaterials or Nanotechnology
• 5+ post‑graduate years with hands‑on lab experience, including chemical handling, experiments, use of standard lab equipment and analytics
• Deep theoretical and practical knowledge of bioprocessing, including at least 3 years of experience working with both upstream and downstream processes
• Knowledge of analytical methods used for bioprocessing
• Experience in sensor technology/practical knowledge of bioprocess sensors (electrochemical, optical, and/or spectroscopic, etc.) and their integration into bioprocesses is a plus
• Analytical skills and experience in surface characterization and performance evaluation is a plus

Nice to have

• Experience in surface chemistry (for example, self‑assembled monolayers (SAMs), biorecognition element functionalization on nanomaterials, antifouling layers, etc) is a plus
• Experience with analyzing complex/big data sets is meriting
• Knowledge of protein‑protein interactions and coupling is a plus

Why join us?

• Be part of a supportive, dynamic team where your contributions are valued.
• Grow your career in an innovative, fast‑paced industry.
• Learn from our customers and attend industry and R&D conferences to grow professionally.
• Enjoy the freedom to take ownership of your work, supported by a flexible and relaxed environment that values responsibility.
• Experience a family‑like atmosphere filled with collaboration, curiosity, and team activities like music quizzes, bowling and Friday fika.

About ArgusEye

ArgusEye is on a mission to revolutionize biopharmaceutical production. Today, developing life‑saving medicines is often a slow, complex, and expensive process, putting vital treatments out of reach for many. By providing advanced sensor systems for real‑time monitoring and control of bioprocesses, we aim to change that.

Our technology, built on 40+ years of research at Linköping University, combines nanoplasmonic sensing with fiber optics to deliver real‑time data, speeding up medicine development, improving efficiency, and cutting costs. With partnerships among leading pharmaceutical companies and growing demand, we’re scaling to make a bigger impact.

At ArgusEye, you’ll be part of a close‑knit team where your ideas and contributions are truly valued. Together, we’re making cutting‑edge technology accessible to improve lives worldwide.
