It is designed to incubate the future AI-powered operating models and deliver candidates to the clinic at industry leading speed and success rates. Purpose This is medicinal chemistry as it should be — pure design, at speed, with the best tools available. You will work at the frontier of AI-enabled molecular design: evaluating generative proposals, applying deep SAR judgment, and directing CRO synthesis to close DMTA cycles faster than any traditional discovery team. No synthetic bench. No compound store. Just expert chemistry thinking applied at maximum velocity. The AIRx Medicinal Chemist is a seasoned drug hunter who thrives in lean, autonomous environments and is excited to work at the frontier of AI-driven drug design. Strong SAR intuition, decisiveness, and the confidence to challenge computational outputs are as important as deep chemistry expertise. We are not looking for someone who will defer to the AI. We are looking for someone who will argue with it, stress-test its proposals against hard-won SAR experience, and make better molecules because of that tension. If you have deep chemistry instinct and genuine curiosity about what generative AI can and cannot do — this is where that combination produces real impact.
