Vancouver, Canada HTuO Biosciences Full time

HTuO Biosciences is a rapidly growing company working at the interface of chemistry and computer programming. We are developing an advanced molecular modelling platform capable of accurately predicting the behaviour of molecules. When complete, HTuO’s simulations will better predict the behaviour of drug-target interactions and more accurately predict binding energies, thus allowing better optimization of drug molecules. Our technology will be a major advance in the field of drug optimization, significantly improving the rate at which we can develop new drugs as well as the quality of those drugs.

We are currently seeking a Computational Chemist with good programming skills who will join our company to take on the computational drug development projects utilising our proprietary molecular modelling software and other computational chemistry methods.

At HTuO, we value creativity and integrity, and have high expectations from all of our staff. We believe in creating a diverse work environment that is balanced, supportive and encourages a healthy work-life balance

Roles and Responsibilities:

- Design and deliver both internal and external computational chemistry projects
- Assist with the development, parameterisation and validation of our molecular modelling platform
- Develop and manage R&D projects for both internal and external collaborations
- Help develop and implement metrics for validation of molecular simulations

Qualifications:

- PhD in Computational Chemistry, computer-aided drug design, or equivalent experience
- Deep experience with molecular dynamics simulations and computer-aided drug design
- Development experience in Python and/or C++
- Background in _ab initio _quantum chemistry is a plus
- Early-stage computational drug development experience (hit-to-lead and lead optimization) is a plus
- Medicinal chemistry or pharmacology background is a plus

Notes:

- Both qualified Canadian and international applicants are welcome to apply, but
priority will be given to Canadian citizens and permanent residents.
