Your job as an MRI Scientist

As an MRI Scientist, you will be part of the Advanced Molecular Analysis team within an international analytical environment. You will work on innovative MRI applications that contribute to the development and optimization of pharmaceutical products and drug-delivery systems. From a modern lab equipped with advanced MRI and NMR technology, you translate complex imaging into actionable insights for development projects. You will work closely with experts from formulation development, analytical development, and materials science. Thanks to your expertise, you will help to set up new analytical methods and better understand pharmaceutical challenges.

Fortunately, we can count on you for:

  • Developing and validating MRI methods for pharmaceutical products
  • Analyzing hydration, diffusion, and dissolution processes in formulations
  • Evaluating coating performance, capsules, and controlled release systems
  • Investigating the functionality of innovative drug-delivery devices
  • Interpreting imaging data and translating it into project insights
  • Collaborating with multidisciplinary teams within product development
  • Performing basic experiments in solid-state NMR where necessary

You have a curious mindset and derive energy from solving complex analytical problems. Additionally, you work independently but also actively seek collaboration with colleagues from different fields. You can communicate scientific results clearly to both specialists and non-specialists.

Hard skills

  • Master's in Physics, Chemistry, or a related scientific field (PhD is a plus)
  • Experience with pre-clinical MRI instrumentation is strongly desired
  • Experience with interpretation of imaging or spectroscopic data
  • Good professional knowledge of English
  • Knowledge of solid-state NMR is a strong asset
