This is a laboratory based position, reports directly to the Head of Discovery & Translational Proteomics within the Small Molecule Drug Discovery organization. The candidate is expected to work effectively in a highly collaborative matrixed environment and interface with Oncology, Immunoscience, Neuroscience, Cardiovascular, and Fibrosis discovery biology areas, chemistry as well as translational research investigators and champion proteomics methodologies / modalities to help solve complex drug discovery & translational research questions.


The candidate needs to have sufficiently deep understanding of biochemistry and biology to help articulate the problem statement, communicate with key stakeholders and bridge across matrixed teams.

A demonstrated ability to convert datasets to usable knowledge and utilize it to support the program progression across the Drug Discovery Translational Research continuum.

Deep familiarity with other “omics” and experience in building synergies to achieve integrative omics outcomes.

An established track record and significant experience in articulating the need for proteomics as well as successfully applying proteomics to drug discovery, translational, clinical discovery space.

Deep experience developing, deploying and utilizing innovative proteomics techniques / workflows to characterize complex proteomes (including post-translational proteomes) to enable discovery, translational and/or clinical research activities is absolutely necessary.

Experience with proteome level post-translational modification analyses (e.g. glycosylation, acetylation/methylation) is highly desirable.

Deep “hands on” experience with proteomics analytical instrumentation (latest generation, nano-chromatography and mass spectrometry), associated workflows, and data processing software packages is a must.

The candidate is expected to spend at least 50% of their time in the proteomics lab and perform experiments alongside their team as well as interface with the larger proteomics team.

Significant experience and in-depth knowledge of proteomics design of experiments, LC/MS proteomics data processing and subsequent data analyses. Detailed understanding of proteomics related bioinformatics and associated software packages is required.

Experience and ability to successfully interface with bioinformaticians and biostatisticians is an absolute must to enable in-depth proteomics data analysis and achieve superlative outcomes for programs.

Hands on experience with automation and laboratory instrument data management would is highly desirable.

Proficiency in applying classical protein biochemical techniques (protein fractionations, chromatography etc.) and most up to date proteomics techniques is expected and familiarity with basic cell culture techniques and standard molecular biology techniques is highly desirable.
