Description du poste

PhD Computational Medicinal Chemist (Torres Quevedo Grant)

Santiago de Compostela, Spain | Celtarys Research

Help us decide what to make and test next.At Celtarys, we're looking for a computational medicinal chemist to turn molecular ideas and experimental data into compound design decisions, working closely with our medicinal chemistry and biology teams.

Your role:

• Design and prioritize bioactive compounds using cheminformatics, molecular modelling and medicinal chemistry principles.
• Build reproducible workflows to explore synthetically accessible compounds and assess their properties and diversity.
• Apply ligand- and/or structure-based methods to guide compound selection.

What you'll bring:

• A PhD with research experience in computational medicinal chemistry and computer-aided drug design.
• Practical cheminformatics and molecular modelling experience, plus programming skills to develop scientific workflows.
• An independent, collaborative approach and clear communication in English.Recent PhD graduates are welcome.

Postdoctoral or industry experience is valued; experience in targeted protein degradation or fluorescent probes is a plus.

Join a collaborative, international biotech startup where your work will directly shape compound design and our evolving drug discovery platform.

The selected candidate will jointly apply with Celtarys for a Torres Quevedo grant.

The position is intended to align with the applicable funding requirements, subject to confirmation under the relevant call.
