jobbeskrivelse:

Pioneer a brighter future
At Novozymes, we work in close partnership with our customers and the global community to make a sustainable impact. We use science to advance industries, and as part of Research, Innovation and Supply, you will help find the biological answers and build the new businesses that can pave the way for a brighter future.

Scientist, Fermentation Optimization, Kalundborg
We are offering an attractive position with the responsibility for fermentation process optimization. We do fermentation process optimization based on in-depth microbial understanding, scientific understanding, pilot experiments, lab investigations, production trials and advanced analytics.

You will be optimizing processes based on scientific knowledge, lab investigations in 20 L scale, production trials, and identify optimization leads from mathematical and statistical treatment of data. We typically work on projects of 6-12 months’ duration with focus on making significant and value creating process improvements. We work in projects with focus on team work. Our team includes 14 fermentation scientists and technicians. Fermentation Optimization is organized under the “Product and Process Development” area in the “Global Optimization” function and we have a close collaboration with Downstream Optimization, our other development departments and production facilities in Denmark, China, Brazil and USA.
 
To keep meeting our business targets in a dynamic environment, people development is a focus area in the daily work for all Zymers as well as continuous improvement of the way we work. Interaction with other departments is very strong, using both shared projects and actual job rotations to other departments/functions to foster cooperation and business understanding.

In this position you need to:

• Hold MSc degree in chemical engineering or biotechnology, potentially combined with a PhD
• Have at least 2 years of industrial experience, preferably with fermentation or as a process engineer
• Have a strong analytical and creative mind combined with a lot of personal drive
• Have experience and interest in running and optimizing fermentation processes
• Have experience and interest in handling and analyzing big data sets from fermentations
• Have a structured approach in your daily work; you are capable of keeping an overview in an environment where changes are an integrated part of the daily work
• Have a sense of urgency – and you can balance the scientific approach in optimization with business understanding
• Be fluent in Danish oral communication (or be willing to learn). Excellent English oral and written communication skills are required.

Are you the next Zymer in our team? Consider a career with Novozymes and let’s realize your potential together.
