The company’s platform combines the latest advancements in visualization of molecular interactions, computational chemistry, and data integration to design orally available, superior small molecule medicines that overcome current limitations of biologic and peptide drugs. We are advancing a clinical‑stage pipeline of differentiated treatments focused on chronic diseases with high unmet need, including cardiovascular, metabolic, and pulmonary conditions.

Track, analyze, and report quality metrics related to document development and QC activities, identifying trends and driving continuous improvement. Project & Stakeholder Management Manage medical writing deliverables across multiple projects, ensuring high quality documents with on‑time completion. Collaborate with cross‑functional teams (Clinical Sciences, Clinical Operations, Regulatory Affairs, Biostatistics, Pharmacovigilance, Nonclinical, CMC, and Program Management) to gather and integrate required content. Proactively monitor project progress, identify risks, and implement mitigation strategies to support successful outcomes. Collaboration & Leadership Serve as a key liaison between Medical Writing and cross‑functional stakeholders to ensure alignment on content, strategy, and messaging. Contribute to cross‑functional meetings and strategic planning related to regulatory and clinical documents. Provide feedback and support to other medical writers, promoting adherence to standards and continuous enhancement of writing quality. Education & Qualifications BA, BS or advanced degree (PhD, PharmD, MS, or equivalent) in life sciences, pharmacy, or a related field. 5+ years of experience in regulatory medical writing within the pharmaceutical or biotech industry. In‑depth knowledge of global regulatory requirements, guidelines, and the drug development process.
