Job DescriptionJob DescriptionSalary:

We are seeking an experienced and highly motivated Senior Scientist for the Drug Product Development group who can work in a collaborative and dynamic environment. The scientist in this role is responsible for activities critical to the development of Alumis’ molecules including generation of pre-formulation packages, formulation selection, and manufacturing process development.

  • Identify vehicles, excipients, and/or new technologies to support formulation development for preclinical PKPD, efficacy, and tox studies.
  • Execute/oversee formulation and manufacturing process development activities for lead and backup molecules.
  • Write request for proposals and support drug product vendor selection activities.
  • Work effectively with external CDMOs to develop drug products for early-stage development candidates and oversee the production of clinical trial material to support the on-time start of clinical studies.
  • Provide functional area updates (oral and written) clearly and concisely.
  • Author the relevant CMC sections for key regulatory filings including INDs and NDAs.
  • Proactively identify project risks and prepare mitigation and contingency plans.


The Ideal Candidate


  • Hands-on experience in pre-clinical formulation development working with research to formulate poorly water-soluble compounds.
  • Hands-on experience in HPLC/UPLC analysis and method development is preferred.
  • Experience in formulation development and process optimization for small molecule solid oral dosage forms including modified-release products.
  • Experience in authoring technical reports and regulatory documents (e.g. IND/NDA).
  • Excellent oral and writing communication skills and flexibility to work in a fast-paced team environment.
  • Experience overseeing the production of clinical trial material.
  • Comfortable in a fast-paced small company environment.
  • Willing to travel as needed to support ongoing development activities.


Education 


Ph.D. degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences, Chemistry, Engineering or related field with a minimum of 2 years or B.S. or M.S. with a minimum of 5 years related industrial experience.
