Opportunity: SCIENTIFIC PROGRAMMER--New York, NY (US)
Submitted by Mike Wilmarth; posted on Friday, October 17, 2003
POSITION
Scientific Programmer - New York, NY
BACKGROUND
I am assisting to recruit a Scientific Programmer for a client located in New York City. This client is a technology leader specializing in software solutions for life science research and development.
They are seeking computational scientists to create the next generation of computer-aided drug design methods, algorithms, and software. Two Ligand-based drug design positions are available for individuals with a background in 3D pharmacophore development (focusing on algorithm and methodology development, not strict modeling) in the New York City office.
RESPONSIBILITIES
- Participate in scientific and algorithmic development as well as software design and implementation.
- Extend and maintain large software packages written by others, as well as develop new applications.
REQUIREMENTS
- Ph.D. in computational chemistry, biochemistry, or biology.
- Post-doctoral research and/or relevant experience in the commercial sector.
- Proven skill and experience in ligand-based drug design with specialization in development of 3D pharmacophore models.
- Experience in methodology development for conformational analysis, pharmacophore feature definition and 3D pharmacophore model identification is preferred.
- Experience in pharmacophore modeling, 3D ligand-based drug design, and structure-based design experience is a plus.
- Strong algorithm development and methodology development skills.
- Strong programming experience. Good knowledge of C/C++ and object-oriented design is a plus.
- Experience writing and maintaining large (100,000-line-plus) software packages is preferred.
- Peer-reviewed publications in computational chemistry, bioinformatics, cheminformatics, or computational medicinal chemistry.
COMPENSATION
Benefits include medical, dental, 401(k), flexible spending account, 3+ weeks vacation, and tuition reimbursement.
HOW TO APPLY
send CV (including publications, thesis topic, academic scores and references) to resumes[at]workwondersstaffing.net.
