iCoat Medical is a Swedish pharmaceutical company focused on developing products to improve the outcome of organ transplantations and help patients across the world, who are in need of a new organ. The innovation is based on a coating treatment of donor organs prior to transplantation, which makes them less recognisable for the innate immune system of the patient.
The company is now on an exciting journey towards commercialisation of its products and is at a stage of high intensity and progress and therefore need to reinforce the team with a senior scientist. Are you an experienced scientist in the field of immunochemistry or biochemistry with a strong industry track record and have passion for hands-on lab work? Then this is the role for you! You will be working with some of the world's leading scientists within innate immunology within a company with potential to transform the transplantation market.
About the role
The Sr Scientist will be part of the Science team in Uppsala, which consists of seven coworkers. You will spend the majority of your time working hands-on in the lab and drive the development of the company’s product candidates forward while having a frequent exposure to all parts of the company’s operations. You will work with different biochemical, biophysical and immunological techniques, including protein separation and purification methods, ELISA, flowcytometry, and different chemical analysis methods.
As Sr Scientist in the science team your main responsibilities include:
About You
We believe that you will contribute with a deep understanding of scientific work and preferably with academic and/or industrial experience from working with the innate immune system (contact-, coagulation- and complement systems).

You have a proven track record of being a doer, i.e., achieving operational results. You need to have an entrepreneurial mindset and excited to join a small but ambitious company. Experience from clinical trials in small organisations is highly regarded.

About ICoat Medical
iCoat Medical’s business idea is to develop and market medicine for successful transplants of vital organs while enabling a greater availability of organs for transplantation. iCoat Medical’s product candidate, TUM012, has the potential to transform the transplantation market. The product is based on 25 years’ research and development in collaboration with leading academic institutes. Vast preclinical studies show that TUM012 has the potential to improve the kidney’s function following transplantation. The organisation includes surgeons and scientists with expertise in all phases of research and development as well as an experienced commercial team. TUM012 will initially be used for kidneys but the plan is that the product will be used also in other organ transplants, such as heart. The transplantation market is large and non-cyclical, and the company estimates that more than 200 000 transplants will be carried in 2025, which is when the company’s product is expected to be ready for commercialisation.
Vision
iCoat Medical’s products will be used in all surgeries across the world where ischemia reperfusion injury constitutes a problem.
Mission
iCoat Medical will improve the outcome of organ transplants to the benefit of the patient, for increased availability of organs for transplants and reduced societal cost.
