 Overview
 
 
 
 We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Preclinical Bioanalytical Scientist to join our Bioanalytical team, focusing on the development and validation of pharmacokinetic (PK) and toxicokinetic (TK) assays for preclinical studies. The primary responsibilities will involve designing, optimizing, and validating bioanalytical assays using the MSD (Meso Scale Discovery) and ELISA platforms to support PK/TK assessments.
 
 
 This is a key role in supporting drug development programs from early discovery through preclinical development. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience in PK/TK assay development and validation in a GLP-regulated environment, with proficiency in MSD and ELISA technologies. This role will involve close collaboration with internal and external teams to ensure timely and high-quality results.
 
 
 
 Key Responsibilities
 
 
 
 PK/TK Assay Development: Design, develop, and validate bioanalytical assays for PK and TK studies, primarily utilizing MSD and ELISA platforms. Ensure assays are fit for purpose and meet regulatory requirements.
 
 
 Method Optimization &amp; Validation: Optimize assay conditions and perform method validation in accordance with regulatory guidelines (FDA, ICH, EMA) for GLP-compliant studies. Conduct bioanalytical method validation and qualification to support PK/TK studies.
 
 
 Data Analysis &amp; Reporting: Analyze and interpret PK/TK results. Prepare detailed reports documenting assay performance, validation, and data analysis for internal teams and external collaborators.
 
 
 Collaboration: Work closely with cross-functional teams, including pharmacokinetics, toxicology, and regulatory affairs, to align on project timelines, deliverables, and regulatory requirements.
 
 
 Troubleshooting &amp; Problem-Solving: Identify, address, and resolve technical issues encountered during assay development or validation to ensure reproducible and reliable results.
 
 
 Regulatory Compliance: Ensure compliance with GLP regulations and guidelines for preclinical PK/TK studies. Provide complete and accurate documentation to support regulatory submissions.
 
 
 Continuous Improvement: Contribute to the development of new technologies and methodologies to enhance assay performance, throughput, and efficiency. Identify and implement automation solutions where appropriate.
