We are seeking a computational chemistry researcher to assist in the development of new scientific techniques and turning these into industry-leading, easy-to-use software products. In this exciting role you will work closely with scientists and the product development team to support continuity of new methods from inception to production and validation, ultimately providing critical tools to workers across industry and academia.
Requirements:
1. PhD-level scientist with a background in computational chemistry and/or molecular modelling, ideally in the field of drug discovery or similar industry.
2. Experience in scientific programming with Python, C, or C++.
3. Experience with methods research, developing new computational chemistry algorithms and methods.
4. Strong passion to help develop the tools which will enable the design of drugs of the future by advancing our understanding of molecular interactions.
5. Publication of methods research in peer-reviewed journals (desirable).
6. Experience with free energy methods (desirable).
Responsibilities:
1. Researching new computational chemistry techniques.
2. Working independently on scientific research projects and producing white papers and scientific publications based on these.
3. Driving validation and early-stage improvement of new software features based on academic and internal research.
4. Testing developmental software features in ‘live’ scenarios, liaising with other Cresset scientists.
5. Regular liaison with Product Management team.
6. Presenting your research worldwide to Cresset customers and at scientific conferences.
This newly created position offers an opportunity for an enthusiastic and ambitious individual to join a collaborative, friendly and interactive team, while personally contributing to the future growth of the company.
