About
Edison Scientific builds and commercializes AI agents for science. Scientific discovery moves too slowly, and autonomous AI agents are how we intend to fix that. We're assembling a team of top researchers and engineers across AI and biology to build an AI scientist.
Role
We're seeking an experienced Toxicology Consultant for a flexible, part-time consulting engagement. You'll serve as the subject matter expert who defines the gold standard for AI-generated toxicology data and reports — ensuring our platform produces outputs that are scientifically accurate and regulatory-grade. This opportunity is designed to fit around existing commitments. This engagement will likely be 15-20 hours per week.
Share how nonclinical tox work is actually done day-to-day — study reports, CRO data packages, IND module content — not the SOP version, the real version
Generate or review reference artifacts that define what correct looks like: IND-ready study reports, SEND datasets, repeat-dose tox summaries, safety pharmacology write-ups
Identify realistic sources of variance, inconsistency, or data corruption in nonclinical study data so our tools can be tested against real-world messiness
Design or review tasks for evaluating AI performance on tox-relevant activities
Score and critique AI-generated toxicology outputs: is this scientifically correct, would it pass review, what would you change before it went into an IND?
10+ years in nonclinical toxicology, OR direct involvement in 10+ IND-enabling tox programs
Deep experience synthesizing raw CRO study data into FDA-ready IND submissions
Hands-on familiarity with repeat-dose tox, safety pharmacology, genotoxicity, TK, and related GLP studies
Comfortable working with AI tools to evaluate and improve outputs
PhD preferred but not required — real-world IND experience is prioritized
Competitive salary and equity
Full healthcare coverage — we pay 100% of premiums for you and your dependents
Support for growing families, including a yearly new parent stipend and fertility coverage through Carrot
401(k) company matching
