Associate Director, Translational PK/PD

The Translational PK/PD Scientific Associate Director will: Serve as expert PK/PD modeler in cross-functional teams, providing model-informed decisions about drug discovery, modality selection, and dose prediction. Integrate in vitro and in vivo data to build PKPD, PBPK, QSP, or other mechanistic modeling platforms to support forward/reverse translation for established and novel targets. Collaborate to design experimental studies and modeling plans to identify/optimize candidates and guide translational strategy. Guide design of automated workflows implementing modeling platforms to inform human PK/PD and dose projections. Provide scientific/modeling guidance to junior colleagues. Demonstrate strong leadership and communication across departments. Qualifications: Education: Master's (8+ years), PharmD (6+ years), or Ph.D. (4+ years) in pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics, mathematics, applied mathematics, systems/computational biology, chemical/biomedical engineering, statistics/biostatistics, or related field; experience with increasing responsibility in drug discovery/development. Required experience/skills: Hands-on translational PKPD modeling using tools such as Matlab, OSP Suite, Monolix, R for biologics/protein therapeutics/peptides. Expert experimental design, mathematical problem solving, critical data analysis/interpretation, and statistics. Preferred experience/skills: Interdisciplinary team experience and collaborative problem scoping/planning. Novel translational modeling strategies or automated workflows using PBPK, QSP, or related mechanistic modeling. Benefits: annual bonus and long-term incentive (if applicable). #J-18808-Ljbffr Scorpion Therapeutics
