Senior Process Engineer for Fermentation Development

Do you have experience with small and large projects within industrial fermentation processes?

If you have worked with fermentation in biotech and you like working with process development, then you might be the one we are looking for!

You will join our process support team, and help with the further development and scaling of our fermentation technology.

We are developing the protein of the future
Unibio has developed a sustainable fermentation technology for the production of protein; Uniprotein®. Based on methane, we can produce almost unimaginable amounts of protein and thus feed the world's growing population.

Through the use of our technology, it is possible to reduce the pressure on marine ecosystems and reduce the extinction of the rainforest.

Welcome to our innovation centre
Our headquarters are located in Roskilde, close to Copenhagen, and our innovation centre and pilot facilities are in Kalundborg. Our innovation centre has a dual function in the company, as we alternate between technology development projects and test production of new products. We work closely with other functions, such as R&D and Commercial, to create the best conditions for our growth.

In Kalundborg, you can look forward to becoming part of a young team who appreciate working together and helping each other. We are small enough for everyone to contribute where needed, which provides for both great cooperation and variation every day.

You will work with:

• Experimental design and optimization/scaling of industrial fermentations
• Professional support for colleagues in fermentation as well as student guidance
• Follow-up on goals and applying structure and direction on tasks together with the team
• Daily support of fermentation processes
• Implementation projects for fermentation at the Innovation Centre
• Design, commissioning, and support of new plants

We imagine that you:

• Have a background as a chemical engineer, M.Sc, process engineer or similar
• Have experience with applied fermentation technology
• Have knowledge of support and process optimization of fermentation in the biotech industry
• Are good at collaborating and communicating clearly with different stakeholders, both internally and externally
• Can work in a structured way and execute on your tasks
• Can handle and prioritize many tasks at the same time as well as execute on them
• Are fluent in English and Danish, written as well as spoken

It would be an advantage if you have experience with industrial fermentation.

What can we offer you?

Your daily workplace is in Kalundborg at the Unibio Innovation Centre with occasional working days at our offices in Roskilde. You may expect up to 20-40 travel days per year.

We are currently 75 employees across 12 nationalities. We scale up quickly, and things change all the time. The distance from thought to action is short, and there are many opportunities to contribute and gain influence. You can look forward to becoming part of a positive, informal environment.

At Unibio, all employees are encouraged to participate in the development of our company. Our style is informal, but we believe that with freedom comes responsibility. If we are to achieve our ambitious goals, everyone must contribute and we are not afraid to delegate responsibility.
