• Advanced degree (PhD, PharmD, MD, or equivalent)
• Extensive experience in clinical pharmacology within biotech or pharma
• Strong background in small-molecule development and quantitative pharmacology
• Comfortable operating both hands-on and strategically
• Fluent in English

Why this role stands out:

• Opportunity to define and own clinical pharmacology strategy
