At Cellcolabs, we’re on a mission to democratize access to advanced cell therapies. As a biotech impact scale-up grounded in over two decades of research at Karolinska Institutet, we specialize in the large-scale production of Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) - cells known for their regenerative, immunomodulatory, and anti-inflammatory properties.

From our GMP facility in Stockholm, we support clinical research targeting areas like cardiovascular disease, musculoskeletal injuries, and age-related degeneration. Now, we are looking for a hands-on GMP Engineer to help scale our production and bring the potential of cell therapy closer to patients.

This is a full-time, permanent position based at our Stockholm headquarters, with a 6-month probationary period.

Areas of responsibility

You’ll be part of a dedicated production team working in a GMP-grade cleanroom environment. Your daily responsibilities will include:

• Manufacture advanced stem cell therapy products in accordance with GMP (B-grade environment).
• Plan and execute routine tasks in daily production - hands-on stem-cell culture including routine preparations and related documentation
• Be involved in document management, handling deviations, CAPA and change control errands, designing/updating working-instructions and qualification/validation work according to GMP-framework
• Be involved in e.g. environmental monitoring sampling of the production premises
• Be involved in storage and material management
• Evaluate results and raw data
• Be responsible for laboratory equipment and instruments, and assist service technicians when necessary

Qualifications

We value long-term collaboration and strive to create an environment where you can grow and thrive. To be successful in this position, you need the following qualifications:

• Master/Bachelor degree within e.g. biotechnology,chemical engineering,molecular/cell biology or a related field
• Experience in hands-on aseptic work connected to cell culture
• Previous working experiences according to strict quality requirements and GMP
• Proficiency in English

Experience working in a Grade B cleanroom environment is highly meritorious.

Who are you?

We’re looking for someone who is passionate about working hands-on with stem cells and motivated by the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on people's lives.

You bring a high level of quality awareness to your work, thrive in aseptic environments, and are structured, reliable, and detail-oriented. Strong communication and collaboration skills are essential, as is a proactive mindset — you actively contribute to a positive team culture, support your colleagues, and take initiative to improve workflows and solve challenges as they arise.

You’re comfortable navigating change and take pride in helping maintain a well-organized, efficient, and high-performing team.
