job details
The Team develops, characterizes and optimizes different electrochemical sensors for medical devices in the area of IVD diagnostics. In particular, they are interested in the parameters of gasses (O2 & CO2), electrolytes (pH, Na+, K+, Ca2+ & Cl-) and metabolites (Glucose & Lactate) in whole blood.
To be able to deliver the desired instruments for hospitals and testing laboratories, the team utilizes electrochemical, optical and enzymatic measuring principles. They develop these methods for the analysis of whole blood by understanding the theoretical bases and use this to develop new sensors.
The perfect candidate has an understanding of materials and their interactions with sensors and biological samples and is interested and dedicated to study, test and improve electrochemical/optical (bio)sensors and learn to understand their behavior and their associated material properties. Furthermore the candidate has experience in different electrochemical methods (potentiometry, impedance spectroscopy, etc) as well as broader physical and chemical analysis and is motivated to use and improve these skills in the laboratory.

- Support the team with your scientific expertise and practical knowledge to understand and solve various technical questions that arise in development and in production of our complex electrochemical sensors and electrodes.
- Interact across the business with quality, operation, V&V and business to support and coordinate design and material changes
- Depending on project needs and product care situation: Support sensor development activities in new development projects
Must Haves:
- Higher technical education (bachelor or master from FH/University/ETH) in chemistry / physics / material science / (electrical) engineering
- Understanding of materials (glasses, metals, polymers, and other chemicals) and their interactions with sensors and biological samples
- Interested and dedicated to study, test and improve electrochemical/optical (bio)sensors and learn to understand their behavior and their associated material properties
- Experience in different electrochemical methods (potentiometry, impedance spectroscopy, etc) is of advantage as well as broader physical and chemical analysis and are motivated to use and improve these skills in the laboratory
- Experience working in a highly regulated environment
- Experience working in and contributing to multidisciplinary development from very varied fields with diverse backgrounds
- Experience with the development of new characterization methods and implement them in test methods, setups or tools and are able to acquire, process and analyse data with appropriate tools (Matlab, Excel, MiniTab, R, Python)
- Ability to document the results at a high technical level: actively report data, results, ideas and achievements
- Open, flexible, team-oriented and takes ownership
- First working experience in producing industry is of advantage
- Fluent in English, German is of advantage.
