Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine (JJIM) is recruiting for a Principal Scientist, Computer-Aided Drug Design (CADD, Computational Chemistry), to join our In Silico Drug Discovery team located in San Diego, California (La Jolla area).
At Johnson & Johnson, we believe health is everything.
Our strength in healthcare innovation empowers us to build a world where complex diseases are prevented, treated, and cured, where treatments are smarter and less invasive, and solutions are personal.
Through our expertise in Innovative Medicine and MedTech, we are uniquely positioned to innovate across the full spectrum of healthcare solutions today to deliver the breakthroughs of tomorrow, and profoundly impact health for humanity.
The In Silico Discovery Unit is a computational discovery team embedded in the Therapeutics Discovery organization, a modality agnostic discovery engine within JJIM responsible for driving all aspects of computational drug discovery across J&J;'s Therapeutic Areas.
The In Silico Discovery (ISD) group is seeking excellent scientists to bring their expertise to exciting and novel areas of computational drug design.
Key Responsibilities Include: Design therapeutic molecules and calculate their properties using state-of-the-art methodologies integrating chemical, biological and structural data, cheminformatics, and artificial intelligence/machine learning techniques.
Serve as a scientific expert in multi-disciplinary discovery project teams that include synthetic chemists, structural biologists, and other discovery scientists, by providing key expertise in the use and interpretation of data related to drug targets and their ligands.
Collaborate within Janssen and with external academic and industrial partners to develop new computational technologies to address key questions in drug discovery.
Publish results in peer-reviewed journals and present at scientific meetings.
Mentor junior scientists, fostering their development as expert computational drug hunters.
Qualifications: A PhD in computational chemistry or a related field, with at least 2 years of experience applying computational modeling in a pharmaceutical industry drug design setting is required.
Familiarity with at least one standard computational drug discovery package (examples may include, Maestro/Schrodinger, MOE/Chemical Computing Group, and/or OpenEye tools) is required.
Experience with one or more of: working in a cross-functional environment, mentoring scientists, influencing decisions, and resolving conflicts is strongly preferred.
Experience with multiple therapeutic modalities (e.g., small molecules, biologics, peptides,
targeted protein degraders) is preferred.
Experience scripting computational workflows in Pipeline Pilot, Knime, Python, or Jupyter notebooks is preferred.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, and a strong publication record is required.
This position is located in La Jolla, CA and requires up to 10% travel domestically and internationally.
