The posting

The research group of Associate Professor Stephan Brouwer is looking for an engaged laboratory technician with experience in molecular biology, immunology, mammalian cell culture, and preferably with experience in BSL2/GMO-2 practices and research. The position is permanent and open for appointment from 1 March 2027.

About us The Novo Nordisk Foundation Initiative for Vaccines and Immunity (NIVI), launched in December 2023, has a unique mission to harness airway immunity through innovative vaccine research and development to prevent airborne epidemics. NIVI has two parts:

· NIVI Research Center (NIVI-R): A state-of-the-art research center anchored to the University of Copenhagen, Department of Immunology and Microbiology (www.isim.ku.dk).

· NIVI Development (NIVI-D): A company that focuses on translational sciences and advancing vaccine development.

NIVI-R conducts scientific research, while NIVI-D works to quickly turn that research into new vaccine candidates. NIVI-D accelerates clinical trials (phases 1 and 2) and ensures a smooth transition to partners for later stages of development.

By connecting science, innovation, clinical trials, regulatory processes, and product development, NIVI aims to streamline the journey from research to real-world vaccines.

Your tasks As part of a newly established research center, you will contribute to the setup and development of a completely new laboratory. This will include assisting with laboratory organization, implementation of workflows and procedures, inventory management systems, and establishing best practices for laboratory operations. You will work closely with the other laboratory technicians and scientific staff within NIVI-R to create a well-functioning research environment while helping to ensure the smooth day-to-day operation of the laboratory.

As the laboratory technician, you will carry out several routine laboratory tasks; including maintenance of mammalian cell lines, molecular biology protocols (e.g., Protein purification, IVT-mRNA synthesis, DNA and RNA extraction/purification, Western-Blot/SDS-PAGE, PCR, qRT-PCR), Immunological assays (e.g. ELISA/Luminex, Neutralization assay, Flow cytometry), preparation of laboratory reagents, and other daily lab routines.

You will also participate in various research projects that involve the development of vaccines and the characterization of vaccine responses, and close collaboration with the group’s scientists.

The following will also be part of the role:

  • Documenting all laboratory work accurately using electronic lab notebooks.
  • Monitoring laboratory stocks and ensuring timely replenishment.
  • Organizing the laboratory and related space to be a clean, safe, and functional environment.

Profile Essential experience and skills:

We are looking for someone with experience in molecular biology techniques (e.g., PCR, western blot, DNA/RNA work), mammalian cell culture (e.g., maintaining, freezing, and characterizing cell lines), and immunologic assays (ELISA, Flowcytometry).

  • A degree as a laboratory technician (Academy Profession degree or similar) is required.
  • You must be good at working independently and organized, and be self-motivated
  • Have good interpersonal and communication skills, both in Danish and English; spoken and written

Desirable experience and skills:

  • Experience with laboratory research in (BSL-2/GMO-2) labs.
  • Experience with immunological assays: Proficiency in techniques such as ELISA/Luminex, Western Blotting, or Flow Cytometry (FACS) to support vaccine efficacy studies.
  • Experience with cell culture, routine mycoplasma testing, and the validation of sterile reagents and media.
  • Experience in animal research (active FELSA/ABD certification).

Terms of salary and employment Your employment will be at NIVI Research Center, Department of Immunology and Microbiology, University of Copenhagen. The position is full-time (37 hours per week), permanent, and is open for appointment from 1 March 2027.

Employment as laboratory technician will be in accordance with the agreement between the Danish Ministry of Finance and OAO/HK STAT. The position is placed in salary group 4.

Depending on qualifications a supplement may be negotiated.
