Do you enjoy working hands-on with in vitro assays and want to contribute to breakthrough drug discovery? Whether you are starting your career or already bring experience, we have an exciting opportunity for you at Gubra.

We are seeking a Laboratory Technician to join our Molecular Pharmacology Department and to contribute to Gubra’s drug discovery projects.

The team

The Molecular Pharmacology department develops a range of in vitro assays -cellular, non-cellular, enzymatic, binding and more - to support Gubra’s highly automated drug screening platform for developing novel peptide drug candidates. The department is committed to delivering high-quality data and continuously implementing new in vitro technologies to support our innovative and technological projects. Our team consists of 7 Scientists and 4 Laboratory Technicians who work closely together and collaborate across departments at Gubra.

A versatile job with a focus on hands-on work in the laboratory

As a Laboratory Technician in the Molecular Pharmacology department, you will contribute to the early stages of Gubra’s drug discovery programs by developing high-throughput assays and by screening peptide drug candidates. You will collaborate closely with Scientists and fellow Technicians, contributing to multiple exciting projects in parallel.

The core responsibilities of the Molecular Pharmacology department include:

• Establishing transient and stable cell lines
• Developing assays to assess peptide potency, utilizing technologies such as HTRF
• Performing binding assays (e.g. Octet/BLI)
• Generating receptor potency screening data for peptide drug candidates using a highly automated workflow
• Processing data and documenting experiments
• Maintaining and organizing laboratory inventory in collaboration with fellow Laboratory Technicians to ensure smooth workflows

Laboratory Technician with motivation for teamwork

You thrive in a collaborative environment, as we strongly believe that teamwork and knowledge sharing lead to better results and a more enjoyable workday. You are curious and eager to learn, open to change, and ready to contribute across departments. You maintain an organized, structured approach to your work, with a strong dedication to delivering high-quality data. Whether you are just starting out or bringing years of experience, we are committed to supporting your growth and development.

Additionally, you may check off several of the following

• You hold a certified laboratory technician diploma or a similar qualification
• You have experience or interest in cell-based assays and cell culture work
• You are motivated to work with automation, including pipetting robots and liquid handling systems
• You have good communication skills in both Danish and English

We offer:

• A 37-hour workweek, including paid lunch breaks
• Flexible working hours - overtime is compensated with time off
• A variety of social initiatives, such as Friday breakfasts, morning workouts, and Friday bars

If you have any questions, you are very welcome to contact Department Manager, Anton Willer at awi@gubra.dk

We are looking forward to receiving your application.

About Gubra

Gubra is a disease-agnostic techbio company specialized in peptide-based drug discovery and preclinical contract research services striving for excellence at all levels. We insist on doing things efficiently – and often differently - to reach the results we aim for. Our vision is to become leaders in the path towards a more sustainable and healthier world. We do that by facilitating the discovery of new medicine, and by acting and inspiring others to fight the ongoing climate and biodiversity crises.

Gubra’s activities are focused on the early stages of drug development and are organised in two main highly synergistic business areas: Biotech and CRO Services. We generate our revenue by performing research for life science companies as well as by partnering projects from our discovery and development pipeline.

Our therapeutic focus is within metabolic and fibrotic diseases, and we specialize in in vivo pharmacology, ex vivo assays, drug profiling, histology, stereology and whole brain and organ imaging. In addition, we offer a full palette of advanced transcriptomics. Our ML/AI-driven peptide drug discovery platform streaMLine enables us to rapidly develop a peptide hit into a non-clinical candidate ready for development. Through a constant focus on high quality, scientific excellence, speed, and solid teamwork we have established ourselves as a highly professional and competent partner in the market.

People are our greatest asset, and our team consists of around 300 employees of which many are located in Hørsholm, Denmark. The mix of people from different cultures and educational backgrounds combined with our entrepreneurial mindset have greatly impacted our working environment, which is characterized by entrepreneurial drive, scientific curiosity, and teamwork – we join forces!
