The Discovery Technologies and Molecular Pharmacology group is a dynamic, diverse and critical part of the Discovery Sciences organization in Janssen R&D. We are committed to the discovery and characterization of high-quality chemical leads needed for the generation of small molecule clinical compounds in all five Janssen Therapeutic Areas. This mission requires deep scientific expertise across broad disciplines including chemistry, cellular and molecular pharmacology, enzymology, screening, protein science, and structural biology coupled with an ability to work collaboratively with internal and external partners. Building on a strong legacy of success, we are currently seeking an outstanding and motivated individual to join our team as a Principal Scientist, Cryo-EM.



Key Responsibilities:

Be an active member of drug discovery teams, working closely with computational and medicinal chemists on structure-based drug design approaches for small/large molecule optimization.

Be responsible for end-to-end high-resolution structure determination via Cryo-EM including sample and cryo-EM grid optimization, data collection, processing, and structure refinement, and communicating these results to the project teams.

Collaborate closely with protein scientists, biophysicists, protein NMR, and X-ray crystallography scientists as part of an integrated structural biology effort.

Actively seek innovative strategies to handle complex targets including grid preparation, data collection, processing, and analysis.

Contribute to increasing the structural biology scientific expertise of the group by publishing high-impact research papers, attending and presenting at scientific conferences, internalizing impactful outside technologies and techniques, and establishing academic collaborations.

Mentor lab scientists and contribute to the strategic planning of the Structural Biology group.

QUALIFICATIONS
