Principal Scientist
to join our In Silico Discovery Biologics team located in either Spring House, PA, Cambridge, MA or San Diego, CA. As we expand our AI/ML capabilities in antibody design and multifunctional molecule optimization, we are looking for an experienced scientist to play a key role in applying methods from this initiative to advance therapeutic molecules. The ideal candidate will be a highly collaborative researcher eager to impact biologics design and development using computational techniques. This is an exciting opportunity to join an enthusiastic, diverse, and global community of in silico scientists committed to bringing innovative new medicines to patients.
The Principal Scientist will collaborate with Biologics Discovery (BD) scientists to effectively apply AI/ML models, thereby enhancing the antibody discovery process. This role involves leveraging advanced computational techniques and data analysis to accelerate the identification and optimization of antibody candidates. By integrating AI/ML models with experimental data, the team will aim to predict candidate efficacy, facilitate design decisions, and streamline the overall workflow from initial screening to lead optimization. Additionally, fostering cross-disciplinary collaboration and continuous knowledge sharing between in silico approaches and laboratory efforts will be crucial for driving successful outcomes in antibody development.
Primary Responsibilities
Partner closely with Biologics Discovery teams to drive drug discovery projects through application of predictive and AI/ML tools for biologics design and optimization. Mentor junior scientists, fostering their development as expert informatics scientists. Engage in industry consortia and represent J&J and In Silico Discovery in key initiatives. Periodically be tasked with evaluating and making recommendations for the acquisition or building of new technologies. This may include performing Due Diligence on potential partnering/M&A opportunities.
