Biofabrication Technician

This is a full-time biofabrication technician position. The initial contract will be for a period of one year, which could be extended upon successful assessment. As a biofabrication technician, you will be involved in various tasks, from hands-on experimental work to keeping the laboratory and facilities organized and running smoothly and supporting ongoing research projects. The position also entails developing 3D (bio)printers with the rest of the research team. You will operate various advanced manufacturing machinery, train and support researchers who want to use the facility’s equipment and ensure the facility has well-maintained biofabrication equipment.

This position is hosted at the Utrecht Biofabrication Facility, embedded within the Regenerative Medicine Center Utrecht (RMCU). Located at the Utrecht Science Park, the RMCU brings together the largest group of researchers in regenerative medicine in the Netherlands. These researchers work closely to translate scientific and technological discoveries into patient benefit. You will be appointed through the Department of Orthopedics of the UMC Utrecht, a global leader in developing and applying novel regenerative technologies, such as cell-based therapies, 3D (bio)printing, and the application of personalized 3D implants.
