  • Execute QSP/QST consulting projects using specialized modeling platforms and programming tools, including MATLAB, THALES, SimBiology, Julia, Monolix, and other relevant technologies.
  • Apply pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic, physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK), and population modeling approaches to address complex drug development questions.
  • Contribute to research and development initiatives, including maintaining validated, license-ready models and advancing toxicology models focused on drug-induced liver injury and other adverse events.
  • Use AI-powered and agentic AI solutions to support scientific workflows, improve technical productivity, and enhance consulting project execution.
  • Coordinate project activities, define implementation plans, schedule stakeholder meetings, manage allocated resources, and deliver agreed-upon outputs within established timelines and budgets.
  • Identify project risks, recommend mitigation strategies, and communicate progress, technical challenges, and deliverables effectively to internal teams and external sponsors.
  • Lead the preparation and review of scientific reports, presentations, manuscripts, figures, and supporting documentation, ensuring technical accuracy and clear communication.
  • Contribute to scientific publications and collaborative research initiatives, including responding to editorial feedback and peer-review comments.
  • Provide technical leadership, supervise scientific work when appropriate, mentor junior scientists, and deliver training on QSP/QST methodologies and modeling platforms.
