  • You bring a strong foundation in immunology, complemented by broad expertise in immunological methods such as cultivation, activation, gene modification of human T cells, and in vitro functional analysis. Experience with CAR T cells or tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) is a plus.
  • You have proven experience in project management and leadership.
  • Knowledge of quality assurance and regulatory affairs, as well as documentation under design control in accordance with DIN EN ISO 13485, is advantageous.
