This role will be key to fostering a “prediction-first” culture, integrating cheminformatics, computational chemistry, and machine learning to accelerate drug design. The candidate will collaborate closely with global teams in medicinal chemistry, DMPK, and AI/ML, defining a roadmap for computational tools that empower medicinal chemists to drive innovation.

Accountabilities:

Develop and apply agentic AI solutions for drug discovery, including autonomous or human-in-the-loop workflows that integrate scientific reasoning, molecular design, data analysis, and computational tools.
Identify opportunities throughout the DMTA cycle where predictive tools can drive acceleration. Build predictive models for molecule design and optimization. Extract medchem design knowledge from large-scale chemical and biological datasets.
Establish and maintain MLOps capabilities for predictive models, including reproducible training and deployment pipelines, model lifecycle orchestration, performance monitoring, versioning, and scheduled retraining.
Build, maintain, and enable efficient search and analytics across ultra-large chemical databases, including scalable data ingestion, standardization, indexing, similarity and substructure search, and distributed computing workflows.
Stay updated with emerging trends in computational chemistry and machine learning as applied to drug discovery. Implement and execute innovative computational methodologies and tools such as AI-based drug discovery, generative chemistry, synthesizable chemical space exploration, DNA Encoded Library (DEL) data analysis and DEL/ML application.
Serve as a trusted thought partner, helping to drive ideation and execution of innovative chemistry strategies that meet Takeda’s therapeutic goals.

Education & Competencies (Technical and Behavioral):

PhD in Computational Chemistry, Cheminformatics, Computer Science or related disciplines, with 2+ years of experience in pharmaceutical or biotech setting.
Demonstrated experience developing and applying agentic AI systems in drug discovery, including integrating and orchestrating chemical and biological databases, foundation models, scientific software tools, and multi-step computational workflows.
