  • Contribute to microscopy-based workflows (FISH and ISH staining, imaging)
  • Provide training and day-to-day support to members of the research group

Requirements:

  • University degree (or equivalent experience) in biology, molecular biology, biochemistry, or a related field
  • Solid hands-on experience with routine molecular biology techniques
  • Experience, or willingness to learn cell biology, genetic engineering approaches
  • Strong organizational skills and a reliable, independent working style
  • Curiosity, willingness to learn, and interest in optimizing protocols
  • Good communication skills
  • English is the working language of the lab, and German is an advantage
  • Leadership mindset, collaborative attitude, and commitment to maintaining a supportive, well-functioning lab environment
What we offer:
  • Remuneration according to TVöD Bund, including employer-financed company pension scheme
  • Job ticket allowance
