Oncoinvent AS is looking for a Process Development Technologist in the Production department at the company manufacturing facility in Oslo. The position is an exciting opportunity to work in an innovative and dynamic start-up company and participate in the development of novel pharmaceuticals.

The Process Development Technologist is responsible for translating laboratory-scale processes into robust, efficient, and commercially viable production processes. The role involves upscaling, optimization, and continuous improvement of production methods to ensure high-quality, cost-effective, and compliant manufacturing. Working closely with the other functional units and Contract Manufacturing Organisation (CMO’s), the technologist bridges the gap between development and full-scale commercial operation.

The successful candidate will collaborate with cross-functional teams and be responsible for ensuring that the production methods of the raw materials, intermediates and drug product (Radspherin®) are developed into commercially viable processes.

This position may require hands-on work with radioactive materials. A successful candidate will therefore receive extensive training and is expected to comply with radiation protection and other health and safety procedures during laboratory- and production scale experiments, and GMP production activities.

Key responsibilities

**Process Upscaling:**Transfer laboratory-scale and pilot-scale processes to commercial manufacturing scale.
**Process Optimization & Improvement:**Optimize process parameters while maintaining product quality through data-driven approaches. Look for continuous improvement opportunities.
**Technology Transfer & Implementation:**Collaborate with cross-functional teams to transfer processes into GMP production. Support validation, qualification, and troubleshooting activities.
**Commercial Readiness:**Ensure processes comply with regulatory and quality standards (e.g., GMP, ICH guidelines) and with process control strategies suitable for long-term commercial operation. Participate in risk assessments and process failure mode analyses (pFMEAs).

Qualifications and experience

The holder of the Production Scientist position should have the following documented qualifications and experience:

Degree in Biotechnology, Chemical Engineering, or related fields (M.Sc. or Ph.D.).
Experience in process development, scale-up, or manufacturing support.
Strong understanding of manufacturing processes, in particular suspensions, microparticles and preferably radiochemistry.
Familiarity with GMP, regulatory requirements, and process validation principles.
Proficiency in data analysis, process modelling, and experimental design.
Strong problem-solving, communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
Norwegian and English language skills.

Location

The holder of this position will be based at Oncoinvent AS, Gullhaugveien 7, 0484 Oslo. The position will report to the Chief Production Officer.
