Bioprocess Operator - Filling, BioLamina
BioLamina is now looking for a Bioprocess Operator to join one of their production teams in Sundbyberg. This is an opportunity to take on a varied, hands-on role with responsibility for filling and labeling, while working alongside new automation technology and broadening your skills across different areas of production.
The role
As a Bioprocess Operator, you will work hands-on with small-scale batch manufacturing in a cleanroom environment, with particular responsibility for the filling and labeling process. While these processes have previously been performed manually, BioLamina has recently invested in a new automated filling and labeling system and your role is to be the operator and technical authority behind that equipment. You will manage day-to-day operations, troubleshoot issues, and continuously optimize the process. This is not a passive monitoring role. You will be actively engaged in the manufacturing process, combining hands-on work with technical problem-solving.
While filling and labeling will be your primary focus, you will also work across other areas of production, gradually broadening your experience in protein purification and manufacturing. Production is a true team effort. You will join one of three production teams, working alongside 12 operators and engineers in a collaborative environment with a supportive and accessible manager. There is a strong sense of community across the company, with shared lunches and social activities being a natural part of your workday.
BioLamina operates across three sites in Solna, Sundbyberg, and Flemingsberg. In this role, you will be based on-site in Sundbyberg, working daytime hours, Monday to Friday.
Key responsibilities:
Hands-on operation and optimization of the filling and labeling equipment, including control system management, troubleshooting and technical problem-solving.
Hands-on batch manufacturing, while also supporting downstream processing, primarily protein purification.
Ensuring quality, efficiency and traceability throughout the filling and labeling process.
Proactively identifying and driving continuous improvements in processes and ways of working.
Managing manufacturing documentation, such as batch records, and contributing to the handling of deviations, change controls and risk assessments in accordance with established procedures, ISO 9001 and the quality management system.
Collaborating closely with operators, engineers, quality, maintenance and logistics to ensure an efficient production flow.
Your profile
We are looking for someone with a hands-on approach, technical curiosity, and the confidence to take ownership of complex equipment and processes. You are comfortable with technology, willing to learn new systems, and keen to actively participate in troubleshooting and problem-solving. You want to become the technical expert in your area and the person others turn to for guidance on equipment operation and troubleshooting.
At the same time, collaboration comes naturally to you. You enjoy working closely with colleagues across different functions and understand the importance of contributing to the team while taking responsibility for your own part of the process. You pay attention to detail and work in a structured and quality-conscious way.
Requirements:
At least a couple of years of production experience within life sciences, biotech, or another regulated industry.
Experience with automated filling is required, and labeling experience is an advantage.
Experience working in cleanroom environments and with aseptic techniques.
Comfortable operating control systems, with a willingness to troubleshoot and optimize equipment operation.
Technical interest and a proactive approach to learning and problem-solving.
Ability to read and communicate verbally in English.
Swedish language skills are an advantage, but not a requirement.
Why join?
At BioLamina, you will join an international and value-driven biotech company with high ambitions and products that support the development of future cell therapies. You will work alongside dedicated colleagues in an environment where quality, collaboration and continuous improvement are central.
BioLamina is a learning organization where knowledge is shared and new perspectives are encouraged. The company is committed to a positive, sustainable and safe work environment with an inclusive culture.
