The Role
Computational Chemist will be responsible for leveraging computational chemistry and cheminformatics to design and discover new therapeutics. You will work closely with a cross functional team to develop and apply computational tools and techniques to drive drug discovery programs forward. You will design and execute virtual screening campaigns using state-of-the-art computational methods and develop predictive models to guide the design of novel drug candidates. You will collaborate with data scientists and biologists to integrate computational chemistry and experimental data to drive drug discovery programs forward.
Who We’re Looking For
- You have a Masters or PhD in Chemistry, Computational Chemistry, Computer Science, or related fields.
- You have over three years of practical experience in computational chemistry, cheminformatics, or related fields, and are skilled in Python, its scientific computing ecosystem, and SQL. You also have experience with version control systems like Git.
- You have experience with cheminformatics tools such as RDKit, Open Babel, and ChemAxon. You can map the chemical diversity of compounds and design focused libraries to drive drug discovery.
- You have experience with virtual screening and are familiar with virtual screening tools such as Autodock, Glide, and DOCK.
- You are experienced in using machine learning models for drug discovery and drug design, including generative models such as Variational Autoencoders and Generative Adversarial Networks. You have experience with machine learning frameworks such as TensorFlow, PyTorch, or Scikit-learn.
- You possess a strong sense of statistical intuition and are comfortable creating and testing hypotheses with data. You can identify weak spots in analysis and propose improvements.
- You have experience working and scaling a cloud computing environment and are familiar with cloud environments such as AWS and containerization technologies (e.g., Docker).
- You take pride in delivering high-quality code that is clean, efficient, and maintainable, and you have a keen eye for appropriate design patterns and software architectures.
- You exhibit a proactive approach to problem-solving, thinking beyond the specific task at hand, taking ownership of challenges, and pride in solving them.
- You have a mature mindset in ambiguous situations, helping to frame questions and seek clarity. At the same time, you can make decisions in the face of uncertainty.
- You are a clear and concise communicator, conveying information effectively in written and verbal communication. You enjoy collaborating with and guiding colleagues in a multidisciplinary team.
- You are motivated by making a real impact, and are committed to tackling problems of significant consequence with determination and creativity.
