Scientist, DMPK

• Support DMPK strategy across drug discovery and development by designing, executing, and interpreting in vitro and in vivo ADME and PK/PD studies for siRNA and other therapeutic modalities.
• Apply quantitative pharmacology approaches-including non-compartmental analysis, compartmental PK/PD, PBPK, and mechanistic/systems modeling-to characterize drug disposition and exposure-response relationships.
• Integrate PK, PD, and biomarker data to inform candidate selection, human dose projection, and first-in-human dose predictions.
• Build, qualify, and clearly document models and simulations using tools such as Phoenix WinNonlin, Monolix, R, and other equivalent tools.
• Contribute to the design of preclinical and translational studies that support progression of candidates from discovery through clinical development.
• Collaborate with cross-functional project teams (bioanalysis, chemistry, biology, toxicology, and clinical pharmacology) to analyze data and communicate quantitative pharmacology insights.
• Prepare clear, well-documented analyses, reports, and presentations, and contribute to regulatory submissions as needed.
• Complete projects in a timely and clearly documented manner while maintaining high scientific and data-quality standards.
• Stay current with emerging modeling methodologies and scientific literature to continuously strengthen the team’s quantitative capabilities.

The ideal candidate will have a strong background in quantitative pharmacology, PK/PD modeling, and pharmacokinetic data analysis, a solid understanding of ADME and drug disposition, and exceptional problem-solving and communication skills to successfully collaborate with multiple project teams in a matrixed and fast-paced environment. This is an exciting opportunity to join a vibrant team and interact with highly motivated scientists across a broad array of disciplinary expertise areas., * Ph.D. in pharmaceutical sciences, pharmacology, chemical or biomedical engineering, or a related quantitative discipline with 0+ years of relevant experience; or exceptional non-PhD (Masters degree with 5+ years, or Bachelors degree with 10+ years of relevant industry experience in DMPK or quantitative pharmacology.

• Strong foundation in quantitative pharmacology and PK/PD modeling, with hands-on experience in non-compartmental and compartmental data analysis.
• Exposure to PBPK, population PK, or systems/mechanistic pharmacology modeling is a strong plus.
• Proficiency with modeling, simulation, and programming tools (e.g., Phoenix WinNonlin, Monolix, R).
• Solid understanding of ADME principles and the drug discovery and development process; knowledge of oligonucleotide therapeutics (e.g., siRNA, ASO) or other novel modalities is a plus.
• Demonstrates strong problem solving ability and adaptability, in and out of their comfort zone
• Detail-oriented with exceptional organizational skills, and the ability to handle multiple projects, and thrive in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment
• Has strong interpersonal skills to enable collaboration with cross-functional teams.

Possesses excellent verbal and written communication skills.
