    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.
