Pharmacometricians (m/f/d)
At Roche, we believe it's urgent to deliver medical solutions right now - even as we develop innovations for the future. We are passionate about transforming patients' lives and we are fearless in both decision and action. And we believe that good business means a better world.
That is why we come to work each day. We commit ourselves to scientific rigor, unassailable ethics, and access to medical innovations for all. We do this today to build a better tomorrow.
In Roche's Pharmaceutical Research and Early Development organisation (pRED) , we make transformative medicines for patients in order to tackle some of the world's toughest unmet healthcare needs. At pRED, we are united by our mission to transform science into medicines. Together, we create a culture defined by curiosity, responsibility and humility, where our talented people are empowered and inspired to bring forward extraordinary life-changing innovation at speed. These positions are located in the Predictive Modeling and Data Analytics chapter, a chapter within the Pharmaceutical Sciences function, where Pharmacometrics is a primary focus area. We closely collaborate with our therapeutic areas and functions to convert hypotheses into innovative therapeutics.
As a pharmacometrician you contribute to developing medicines by designing and executing the pharmacometric strategy for programs in different stages of clinical development in one or more indication or disease areas. The pharmacometrics positions are located in the Predictive Modeling and Data Analytics chapter, where pharmacometrics is a primary focus area, together with other quantitative functions in Pharmaceutical Sciences. As a pharmacometrician you closely collaborate with other functions in pRED and development to ensure that the pharmacometric support is addressing the key needs to bring projects forward.
Develop and execute scientifically sound, innovative and business-oriented Modeling & Simulation (M&S) strategic plans for projects in various disease areas and different stages of product development, including regulatory submissions.
Develop and execute appropriate (population) pharmacokinetic and (population) pharmacodynamic models for the project and apply, if available for the project, empirical and/or mechanistically-based drug disease models.
Conduct simulations to inform drug development decisions such as dosage regimen selection and other trial design features.
Communicate the outcome of M&S analysis to the project teams to support efficient discussion and decision making.
Contribute to responses to health authority requests and interactions to align on Clinical development and M&S strategy
Interact on a scientific level with partners in project team(s) with regards to all aspects of the application of M&S to ensure efficient and appropriate integration of M&S strategy and results into internal and external project documents (e.g. Clinical Development Plan, Investigator Brochure, NDA documents)
MD, PharmD or PhD (in natural sciences, mathematics, physical sciences or engineering or any combination of these) with at least 3-5 years experience* in planning and conducting M&S projects for clinical study data in a pharmaceutical industry setting.
Strategic mindset and understanding of how and when M&S can contribute value in drug development and support decision making.
Significant experience with M&S software (e.g. NONMEM, Monolix, Phoenix, MATLAB, Gastroplus, Simcyp, SAS, R,???)
Knowledge in technological advances like bayesian modelling and artificial intelligence (e.g. machine and deep learning) is desired as well as a keen interest for deep understanding of disease biology.
Ability to influence and lead without authority in a network organization
You exhibit a growth mindset. You ask for feedback and act on it. You embrace opportunities to gain new skills and perspectives and provide honest feedback to others to help them grow.
You are able to follow the science. You act on facts and data, not opinions and go where the science and the unmet needs of patients lead you.
Efficient written and oral communication.
You are able to radically simplify and prioritize for impact. You invest your time in things that accelerate progress for patients. You stop doing things that do not.
* The seniority level of the position will be determined based on the experience of the successful candidate This position is located in Basel or in Welwyn.
You're someone who wants to influence your own development. You are looking for a company where you receive the opportunity to pursue your interests across functions and geographies. Working in a multi-cultural environment motivates you.
Are you ready to apply? We want someone who thinks beyond the job offered - someone who knows that this position can be a rare springboard to many other opportunities at Roche.
Roche embraces diversity and equal opportunity in a serious way. We are committed to building a team that represents a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, and skills. The more inclusive we are, the better our work will be.
We are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity at our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of ethnic background, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
Besides extensive development and training opportunities, we offer flexible working options, 18 weeks of maternity leave and 10 weeks of gender independent partnership leave. Our employees also benefit from multiple services on site such as child-care facilities, medical services, restaurants and cafeterias, as well as various employee events.
We believe in the power of diversity and inclusion, and strive to identify and create opportunities that enable all people to bring their unique selves to Roche.
Roche is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
