Senior Scientist I

Revolution Medicines is a clinical-stage precision oncology company focused on developing novel targeted therapies to inhibit frontier targets in RAS-addicted cancers.  The company’s R&D pipeline comprises RAS(ON) Inhibitors designed to suppress diverse oncogenic variants of RAS proteins, and RAS Companion Inhibitors for use in combination treatment strategies. As a new member of the Revolution Medicines team, you will join other outstanding scientists in a tireless commitment to patients with cancer harboring mutations in the RAS signaling pathway.

The Opportunity:

The DMPK Senior Scientist I will be a key member of the Drug Metabolism and Pharmacokinetics (DMPK) team within the Nonclinical Development and Clinical Pharmacology (NDCP) department.

Specifically, you will:

• Participate in the discovery of novel tri-complex inhibitors of frontier oncology targets by planning and implementing DMPK strategies to drive key project decisions for advancing small molecule programs. E.g. soft-spot analysis in optimization of molecules with improved metabolic stability or permeability.

• Maintain sufficient knowledge of principles and theories to serve as a DMPK technical lead on multi-disciplinary project teams.

• Design, manage and trouble-shoot mechanistic in vitro ADME and PK studies in a timely manner, and discuss results and potential solutions/implications at internal meetings.

Incorporate new concepts and experimental techniques to develop novel in vitro ADME assays and refine IVIVE approaches.

• Collaborate with external functions to provide input and guidance on the translation of nonclinical PK/PD, PK-efficacy and PK-safety relationships to humans.

• Author and review DMPK sections of regulatory submissions and respond to questions from regulatory agencies.

• Build and maintain strong collaborative partnerships across external functional areas, e.g., Medicinal chemistry, Biology, Cancer Pharmacology, Clinical Pharmacology,

Required Skills, Experience, and Education:

• A highly motivated individual with a PhD in Pharmaceutic Sciences or a related scientific discipline, with 5 years of experience after graduation.

• Solid knowledge and experience in the ADME/PK concepts and basic compartmental modeling software.

• Prior experience with small molecule drug discovery programs experience working as a DMPK functional representative on cross-functional project teams.

• Complete understanding of early- through late-stage development and commercial advancement.

• Excellent verbal and written communication, problem-solving and critical thinking skills.

• Thrives in a collaborative team setting and is driven by a desire to be innovative in a highly energetic and fast-paced environment.

Preferred Skills:

• Prior experience with oncology drug development.

• Industry experience of drug development is preferred.
