We are looking for the ideal candidate

We are seeking a strategic and innovative Senior Scientist, Computational Chemist to be a leading figure in silico efforts and drive the integration of computational approaches across our drug discovery pipeline. In this role, you will apply state-of-the-art modeling, data science, and AI / ML tools to support target identification, structure-based drug design, and optimization of novel small molecules. You will collaborate closely with medicinal chemistry, biology, pharmacology, and translational science teams to advance programs from early discovery through IND-enabling stages.

You are a scientifically rigorous leader with a deep understanding of molecular modeling, Cheminformatics , and SAR analysis. You excel at generating actionable insights from complex data and translating them into clear design hypotheses. This individual thrives in dynamic, collaborative environments and brings a proactive, hands-on approach to leading multidisciplinary projects in a fast-paced setting.

WHAT YOU WILL DO :

• Design and implement in silico workflows for hit identification, lead optimization, and structure-activity relationship (SAR) modeling.
• Apply molecular modeling techniques such as docking, pharmacophore modeling, molecular dynamics, and free energy perturbation to inform compound design.
• Integrate AI / ML tools and Cheminformatics approaches to accelerate hypothesis generation and compound prioritization.
• Collaborate closely with medicinal chemists and biologists to iteratively refine compound designs based on computational predictions and experimental data.
• Leverage structural biology and homology models to drive structure-based drug design (SBDD) initiatives.
• Support target assessment and hit triage using ligand-based and structure-based methods.
• Evaluate and implement cutting-edge software platforms and external partnerships to stay at the forefront of computational drug discovery.
• Contribute to project strategy, decision-making, and communication with cross-functional stakeholders and senior leadership.
