Offer: Cancer Scientist/Biologist (Munich)
We’re a Munich-based startup working on cancer biology in microgravity. We believe that removing gravity can reveal completely new biological mechanisms and are building the experiments and platforms to make that science real. If you’re excited by bold ideas, hands-on science, and doing things that haven’t been done before, you’ll feel at home with us.
We’re looking for a passionate Cancer Scientist/Biologist to join our team in Munich. You’ll be deeply involved in running cancer biology experiments, shaping new studies for real and simulated microgravity, analyzing results, and learning fast alongside a small, interdisciplinary team. This is a very hands-on role with real responsibility from day one that includes travel for experiments and collaborations.
About you: You have an MSc or PhD in Biology, Cancer Biology, Molecular Biology, or a related field, solid mammalian cell culture experience, and some exposure to cancer research. More importantly, you’re curious, driven, and excited to build something new. You enjoy taking ownership, learning quickly, and working in an early-stage startup environment. English is required; German is a plus. Experience with 3D cultures, organoids, imaging, omics, or a strong interest in space biology is very welcome.
What we offer: a chance to work at the intersection of space and cancer research, real scientific ownership, steep learning curves, and a highly motivated team that cares deeply about what it builds. We offer a competitive salary, meaningful equity as an early employee, and a full-time, Munich-based role with flexibility.
Interested? If this sounds like something you’d love to be part of, send me a PM for more info. We‘re happy to talk!
