R&D Scientist

About the role

At Navinci, we are passionate about understanding biology and disease at a deeper level. We develop technologies and applications that help researchers study proteins, signaling pathways, cellular biology, and molecular mechanisms directly in biological samples.

Our work spans tissue and cell-based systems and increasingly combines information from multiple technologies and data types to generate richer biological insight. We collaborate with leading academic groups, biotech companies, and pharmaceutical partners worldwide to advance research and translational science.

As we continue to grow, we are looking for 2–3 scientists with different backgrounds and expertise to join our R&D team. We are interested in people who are excited by science, enjoy solving complex problems, and want to contribute to the development of innovative research tools and technologies.

Whether your background is in cell biology, tissue biology, spatial biology, immunology, biomarker research, assay development, translational science, omics technologies, or technology development, we would love to hear from you.
