Entactbio, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, United States,
Principal Scientist – Computational Chemistry and Modeling
Location: Watertown, MA We are seeking a computational chemist and modeler to join the Molecular Discovery group. The successful candidate will shape our computational chemistry strategy and help to drive programs from hit discovery to hit-to-lead, lead optimization, and development candidate selection. The successful computational chemist will help to develop the molecular basis for our Encompass platform while interfacing with a team of scientists in medicinal chemistry, structural biology, biophysics and biochemistry, cell biology, and research informatics to bring forward new therapies. Responsibilities: Leverage structure-based methods to design and prioritize compounds in collaboration with chemistry, structural biology, and Lead Discovery groups Design and execute virtual screening campaigns Develop models to predict properties of bRo5 compounds Work with leadership to develop strategy for employing computational chemistry at Entact Collaborate and effectively work cross functionally Effectively communicate scientific progress to internal project teams and external audiences Foster a culture of inclusion and scientific curiosity Who You Are: Computational chemist who has successfully employed cutting edge tools to drive drug discovery programs towards the clinic Expert-level knowledge of modern concepts in computational drug discovery, including docking, pharmacophore-based drug design, and water map Experience with cheminformatics and compound library design a plus Organized with effective time management and planning skills Highly collaborative Driven and conscientious: proactively identifies opportunities to contribute scientifically and organizationally to promote a culture of innovation and inclusion Qualifications: Ph.D. in computational chemistry or related field with 7+ years of experience in the drug industry Experience in heterobifunctional and induced proximity space a plus Entact is home to scientists, entrepreneurs, drug creators, and problem solvers, all inspired by the idea that even when you’re ill there’s something intact within your cells that can help you get well. As a member of this diverse and growing team, you will lend your insights, passion and talent, to the mission of translating this vision into novel therapeutics for the patients who need them the most.
