Job description

We are seeking an experienced, highly quantitative scientist to lead bioanalytical strategy and quality control across a diverse portfolio of peptide, protein, and small molecule therapeutics. This individual will define analytical approaches, oversee external CROs, and ensure that all data generated are accurate, reproducible, and decision-grade.

This role is ideal for someone who combines deep knowledge of bioanalytical methods with a strong QC mindset and the ability to diagnose and resolve complex analytical challenges across multiple assay platforms.

Qualifications
  • PhD in Analytical Chemistry, Pharmaceutical Sciences, Biochemistry, or related field 
  • 8–15+ years of relevant experience in biotech, pharma, or CRO environments  
  • Demonstrated expertise in bioanalytical method development, validation, and data interpretation within a quality management system (i.e. GLP / GMP)
  • Strong understanding of both:  
  • Instrumental analysis as applied to drug substance drug product characterization
  • Experience overseeing and critically evaluating CRO-generated data  
  • Working knowledge of GLP / GMP analysis and regulatory expectations (e.g., ICH Q2(R2)) 
  • Solid grounding in chemical kinetics and interpretation of concentration–time rate data  

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience across multiple molecular modalities (polymers, peptides, proteins, and, small molecules) 
  • Background in analytical development or QC for regulated products  
  • Experience supporting IND-enabling and early/late stage GMP method validation studies for clinical programs 
  • Familiarity with complex or long-acting drug delivery systems  
Final compensation will be based on a candidate’s qualifications, experience, and geographic location. Employees are also eligible for performance bonuses, equity participation and comprehensive health benefits.
We believe in building balanced teams. We are an equal opportunity employer. We do not discriminate in regard to race, color, religion, national origin, age, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, ancestry, physical or mental disability, veteran status, or any other legally protected characteristics.

These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
