Odyssey Therapeutics is propelling drug development beyond what is now possible to deliver medicines that address the critical needs of patients with inflammatory diseases. We achieve unprecedented speed and efficiency by bringing together a target-centric approach, a toolbox of cutting-edge technologies, and a team of accomplished, world-class drug hunters. By reimagining the drug development process, we are creating a deep and broad drug pipeline that holds the potential to transform human health. We are seeking an accomplished and innovative computational chemist who excels in applying cutting-edge computational methods to advance small-molecule drug discovery programs. This role will be instrumental in driving the use of advanced simulations, free energy perturbation (FEP), generative design and molecular dynamics (MD) techniques across various therapeutic projects at Odyssey. The ideal candidate is a passionate drug hunter with extensive experience in computational medicinal chemistry, virtual screening, and structure-based drug design.

As a key team member within the organization, you will influence programs by applying your deep expertise in computational chemistry, collaborating closely with cross-functional teams, and advancing the scientific impact of our platform. Your contributions will shape the design of novel therapeutics in inflammatory diseases, while fostering innovation through both collaboration and scientific excellence.
