Job description

Senior Principal/ Principal Scientist, Computational Safety

Description

We are seeking a Senior Principal/ Principal Scientist, Computational Safety, to provide scientific leadership in in silico safety assessment across drug discovery and development. This role will leverage advanced multi omics data, systems toxicology and AI/ML approaches to proactively identify safety liabilities, support mechanistic understanding, improve quality target identification, and facilitate risk based decision making.

The Senior Principal Scientist/ Principal will play a key role in developing and delivering integrated computational safety strategies, including AI enabled foundation model based on multiple omics data, Adverse Outcome Pathways, off-target identification, and predictive liability models. Working closely with toxicologists, discovery scientists, clinical safety, bioinformatics, data science, and IT partners, this position will translate complex computational insights into clear, actionable recommendations that improve pipeline quality and reduce late stage attrition.

As an employee of Boehringer Ingelheim, you will actively contribute to the discovery, development and delivery of our products to our patients and customers. Our global presence provides opportunities for all employees to collaborate internationally, offering visibility and opportunity to directly contribute to the companies' success.
