Careers at PROGEN
Working at PROGEN means joining a team that’s hands-on, curious, and committed to making gene therapy better together. Whether you’re in the lab, in the office, or working across borders, you’ll be part of a team that values trust, collaboration, and scientific progress. We are all driven by a shared vision to create accessible tools for every gene therapy, for every lab.
We’re a science-driven company, built by people.
Our team spans backgrounds and generations. Some colleagues have been with us since the early 90s; others joined just this year. However, we are connected by the purpose of doing meaningful work with good people. Based in the heart of Heidelberg’s thriving biotech hub, we’re part of a community that drives scientific progress every day.
What we offer...
Beyond meaningful work, we make space for flexibility, growth, and connection, because we know people do their best work when they feel supported.
Flexible Working
Life doesn’t start and stop at the office door. Whether it's family, study, or side projects, we offer flexible hours and trust you to find a rhythm that works.
Commuter Benefits
Choose what suits you best: a subsidized Job Ticket for public transport, our bike leasing program, or both. Bonus: our Heidelberg HQ is one of Germany’s most bike-friendly cities.
Professional Development
Curious minds are welcome here. From training to new responsibilities, we encourage you to continue growing in a way that aligns with your goals.
Monthly Team Lunches
Once a month, we pause for good food from a local restaurant and conversation, celebrating wins and staying connected across departments.
Wellbeing & Extras
We’ve partnered with our neighbor gym for weekly training sessions just for us. You’ll also get access to Voiio, a digital platform that supports your wellbeing.
Our Team: In and Out of the Lab
From company retreats to Christmas parties to everyday moments, our team enjoys a good time together.
