CADD Scientist(J24613)

1. 01

   Utilize computational chemistry methods to promote small-molecule drug discovery programs (collaborate with chemists, biologists, and multidisciplinary teams from target evaluation to hit identification, compound optimization towards clinical candidates)

2. 02

   Provide SAR explanation from molecular modeling and data analysis viewpoints, contribute to compound design and optimization, devise and implement hypotheses that can be tested to formulate compound design strategies

3. 03

   Responsible for detailed project implementation and regular progress reports to clients, adjusting project scope based on results and feedback, ensuring transparency and client satisfaction

4. 04

   Undertake scientific method/protocol development (or evaluation) in areas such as structure-based design or binding free energy calculation, or cheminformatics/AI-based virtual screening or binding affinity/molecular property prediction.

5. 05

   Responsible for some internal support tasks within the team, such as building virtual libraries, maintaining the computational cluster and etc.
