Scientist II / Senior Scientist, Pharmacology
Note: exact title/level depending on experience
Company Overview:
Vividion is a next generation biotechnology company based in San Diego that is leveraging its proprietary chemical proteomics platform to conduct proteome-wide footprinting of drug-protein interactions with unprecedented breadth and precision. Our technology allows us to screen, identify and optimize novel drugs that selectively bind virtually any protein, including proteins previously considered undruggable. Our pipeline and emerging programs reflect a matured and productive platform capable of delivering first in class drugs utilizing novel mechanisms of action (allosteric inhibitors, protein-protein interaction inhibitors, functional activators, degraders etc.) against undruggable targets in the oncology and immunology space.
We are uniquely structured with opportunities for all scientists to contribute to both established programs as well as ongoing early target selection, screens and validation. We prize scientific excellence, creativity, team players and we are committed to continued innovation. We have worked hard to create a collaborative and dynamic work culture where your ideas and discoveries are valued and will have an impact. We are growing and there are opportunities for mentorship and career progression.
Job
Summary:
Our team is seeking a highly motivated PhD Level Scientist, to contribute to the discovery and development of novel small-molecule drugs to address unmet medical needs in immune/inflammation mediated diseases. The successful candidate will have extensive hands-on experience designing and executing in vivo and in vitro studies in support of target validation, lead discovery /lead optimization efforts. The candidate thrives in a collaborative team setting and is driven by a desire to be innovative in a biotech environment.
