  • Prior experience managing/leading program level clinical pharmacology deliverables at a Biopharma or Biotech is highly preferred. Alternatively, experience working at CROs leading clinical pharmacology and/or pharmacometrics workflows for biologics development is also considered
  • Demonstrated expertise in analyzing/interpreting clinical pharmacology endpoints (PK, PD data) and using them for designing PK-PD modeling and pharmacometrics modules to achieve clinical PoC
  • Strong background in pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic principles, with hands-on experience in study design, data analysis, and interpretation
  • Prior working experience closely with clinical development, biostats and regulatory teams towards regulatory filings is highly preferred
  • Prior experience managing clinical pharmacology CROs/consultants is preferred
  • DMPK (Drug Metabolism and Pharmacokinetics) expertise and bioanalytical experience are preferred and would be valuable additions to the role
