We're hiring: Scientist – Surface Chemistry & BiosensingBioherent | Málaga, Spain We're looking for a hands‐on scientist with a background in materials science or chemistry and practical biosensor experience to help develop optical biosensing technologies for in vitro diagnostics. La descripción completa del puesto cubre todas las habilidades asociadas, la experiencia previa y cualquier cualificación que se espera que tengan los solicitantes.

What you'll do
* Develop functional materials, surface coatings, and nanostructures for biosensing.
* Optimize surface functionalization and biomolecule immobilization, particularly on silicon substrates.
* Characterize materials and surfaces and investigate their effects on sensor sensitivity, background, stability, and reproducibility.
* Improve consistency between functionalization batches and support the transfer of laboratory methods into scalable processes.
* Work closely with chemists, immunoassay scientists, and engineers,



documenting methods and findings clearly. What we're looking for:
* BSc, MSc, or PhD in Materials Science, Chemistry, Nanotechnology, Chemical Engineering, Applied Physics, or a related field.
* 3+ years of relevant experience in research, R&D;, or applied materials development.
* Strong experimental design, data analysis, and troubleshooting skills. Experience with silicon-based biosensors or optical and photonic platforms would be particularly valuable. Other relevant expertise includes silanization, bioconjugation, antifouling coatings, nanoparticles, and surface characterization techniques such as XPS, AFM, contact-angle measurements, or electron microscopy. xqysrnh We welcome materials scientists and chemists with biosensor experience who enjoy connecting material design and surface chemistry with practical diagnostic performance.
