Full-time, in-office in Emeryville, California. Compensation includes equity.

• Design and execute experiments to assess solubility, stability, and volatility

• Troubleshoot formulation issues and iterate quickly under real-world constraints

• Collaborate cross-functionally with predictive-modeling, behavioral assay, and computational chemist groups

Qualifications

• M.S. or Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, or related field

• 3+ years’ hands-on scale-up or process chemistry experience

• Deep understanding of solvent properties, controlled release phenomena, and formulation principles

• Track record of developing robust, reproducible processes

• Strong data analysis, documentation, and troubleshooting skills

Desired Attributes

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
