Project Manager / Senior Project Manager – Nonclinical Antiviral Development (NIAID‑Funded Program)

We are a small, science‑driven biopharmaceutical company located in Carlsbad, CA, advancing first‑in‑class preclinical and Phase 2 clinical development programs primarily through U.S. government‑funded support. We operate with the agility of a startup and the rigor required for global regulatory success. Every team member plays a direct role in shaping the program and accelerating delivery of urgently needed antiviral therapies.

Position Summary

We are seeking an experienced, highly organized full-time, on-site Project Manager to lead a nonclinical antiviral development program from post-discovery through Phase 1. This individual will serve as the operational hub for a cross-functional team spanning nonclinical, CMC, regulatory, and external partners. The ideal candidate brings hands-on experience managing government-funded drug development contracts—preferably with NIH/NIAID, BARDA, or the Department of Defense—and understands the unique reporting, compliance, and milestone-driven expectations of government agencies. Additional pluses would include experience with antiviral or infectious disease programs, including advanced animal efficacy models and coordinating NIAID DMID-funded testing or development networks, as well as familiarity with IND-enabling requirements and early clinical development

This role is perfect for someone who thrives in a small‑company environment, enjoys building structure where needed, and can drive execution across multiple technical workstreams.

Program Leadership & Execution

· Lead day-to-day project management for a small‑molecule antiviral program from post-discovery through IND and Phase 1.

· Develop and maintain integrated project plans, timelines, budgets, and risk registers.

· Drive cross-functional alignment across nonclinical, CMC, regulatory, and external collaborators.

· Ensure timely execution of studies supporting IND‑enabling packages (toxicology, safety pharmacology, ADME, virology, formulation, and manufacturing).

· Operate within a government contract framework, ensuring compliance with government contractual requirements.

Government Contract Management

· Manage contract deliverables, reporting requirements, milestone documentation, and compliance obligations.

· Serve as primary operational liaison with NIAID DMID program staff and technical teams.

· Coordinate government-funded testing through NIAID/NIH networks (e.g., antiviral screening, animal models, PK/PD studies).

· Ensure alignment with FDA study compliance and expectations for documentation, transparency, and audit readiness.

Vendor & CRO Oversight

· Manage relationships with CROs, CDMOs, academic collaborators, and government testing facilities.

· Support study initiation, execution, and delivery of high-quality data packages.

· Track performance, budgets, and timelines; escalate risks proactively.

Regulatory & NDA Support

· Partner with Regulatory Affairs to support NDA planning, data QC, cross‑functional readiness, and submission execution.

· Coordinate preparation for regulatory meetings (e.g., pre‑IND, IND, and End‑of‑Phase 1).

· Ensure nonclinical, CMC, and clinical data packages are delivered on time and in compliance with contractual and global regulatory expectations.

Communication & Reporting

· Prepare and lead internal and external project updates, dashboards, and risk assessments with internal team members and government and other project stakeholders.

· Serve as a liaison with the government and other project stakeholders.

· Lead regular team meetings, ensuring clear action items and accountability.

· Deliver high‑quality written reports and presentations for government agencies and internal leadership.

Qualifications

Required

· Bachelor’s degree in life sciences, engineering, or related medical field

· 7+ years of project management experience in biotech/CRO/pharma.

· Demonstrated experience managing biopharma or government-funded (NIH/NIAID, BARDA, DoD, or similar) drug development preclinical and/or clinical contracts .

· Strong understanding of nonclinical development workflows (toxicology, pharmacology, ADME, virology, CMC).

· Proven ability to manage complex timelines, budgets, and multi-partner programs.

· Exceptional communication, organization, and stakeholder‑management skills.

· Comfortable working in a small, fast‑moving, resource‑lean environment, fostering accountability.

Preferred

· Experience conducting or managing IND-enabling studies and early clinical

· Experience with antiviral or infectious disease programs.

What We Offer

· Collaborative, mission-focused culture with scientific rigor and operational agility.

· Competitive salary range of $145,000 – $189,000 based on experience and qualifications.

· Company incentive stock option plan.

· Health insurance coverage.

· 401k retirement savings plan with company matching.

· Paid time off and holidays.
