Ingénieur de recherche en microfluidique (H/F)

Missions :
Join Oria Bioscience team, an emerging start-up, spin-off of ENS-PSL and CNRS, based in the vibrant 5th arrondissement of Paris. We developed an innovative microfluidic process to generate and purify over-micrometric organelles, which have the potential to shape the future of therapeutic research targeting intracellular membrane proteins. Our goal is to address the pharmaceutical industry with organelle preparations for unprecedented drug screening approaches, at organelle scale, on discovery platforms. Oria Bioscience team comes from CNRS, and has already received innovation awards and fundings, showcasing its immense potential.
We are looking for a passionate Microfluidicist Junior Scientist (Engineer, Ph.D. holder or post-doc) with knowledge in cellular biology and fluid physics to join our team and contribute to our R&D. However, candidates with different training backgrounds who are eager to work in microfluidics with biological materials and be part of an ambitious adventure are also encouraged to apply.
As a key member of our emerging team, you will thrive in a challenging, science-driven, and creative environment. You will accompany Oria Bioscience in its transition from a lab proof of concept to an industrial process, by working with our first industrial collaborators.
Activités :
• You will be in charge of optimizing our organelle sorting process, ensuring a sophisticated and reliable purification workflow with high performance.
• You will be responsible to achieve superior performance in organelle purification, meticulously refining flow management and mechanical parameters to reach viable organelles.

Contexte de travail :
Under the expertise and excellence of Oria Bioscience team from ENS-PSL and CNRS, you have a unique opportunity to dive into an emerging startup as one of our early employees, and assist to the transition from laboratory to company. Your role will be pivotal in consolidating our core technology and you will enjoy special benefits if you join the start-up:
• Environment: You will thrive in the expertise-rich environment of CNRS and of the IPGG platform. Surrounded by experts in biophysics, microfluidics and micro-design, you will benefit from all this extensive ecosystem of research and innovation.
• Team: You will manage your own project in collaboration with Dr. Abdou-Rachid THIAM (our CSO at Oria Bioscience and CNRS PI at LPENS), Dr. Alexandre SANTINHO (our CEO) and other members of the R&D team.
• Compensation: We offer a competitive compensation package reflecting your experience, motivation, and ability to thrive in a transdisciplinary scientific and technical environment.
