  • Responsible for data management, data QC, and technical report writing.
  • Author regulatory documents in compliance with regulations, including protocols, study reports, relevant sections of investigator brochures and INDs, and other similar documents.
  • Present program updates and research strategies to functional and non-functional leaders as well as potential and existing partners.
Qualifications
  • PhD and postdoctoral studies in biology, immunology, biochemistry, or equivalent field with a robust publication record in leading scientific journals.
  • 5-10+ years of work experience in biotech or pharma with target identification/validation and drug discovery and development.
  • Extensive experience with in vitro assays for tumor biology, immunology, and in vivo pharmacology in an industrial research environment, with 5-10+ years of experience managing teams and cross-functional projects.
  • Proven track record of driving early to late-stage discovery programs using multiple modalities.
  • Extensive knowledge and experience in therapeutic interventions in multiple histologies.
  • At a minimum, conversant in targeted oncology drug discovery biology.
  • Direct experience with solid and hematologic tumor models and measurements.
  • Extremely organized and experienced with documentation of experimental plans, budget, timelines, and technical reports.
  • Experience in authoring and QCing technical reports and regulatory documents.
  • Highly organized and self-directed, capable of leading multiple complex research programs in parallel.
  • Strong understanding of standard statistical analysis of scientific data using data software tools (e.g., Prism, SigmaPlot, and SPSS).
  • Ability to critically analyze data and lead teams to solve issues and make best strategic decisions.
  • Highly collaborative, team-oriented, and considerate of the needs of others.
  • Knowledge of pharmaceutical development processes, including lead characterization, CMC considerations, and GxP tox & safety.
  • Experience evaluating internal and external research and development programs.
  • Proven team leadership and management abilities, including experience mentoring, guiding, supervising, and developing scientific personnel with various backgrounds and training levels.
