Bioanalytical Chemist
We are currently recruiting a Bioanalytical Chemist to join our team in Richmond, VA or we are open to remote work arrangements. As a Bioanalytical Chemist, you will apply your chemistry knowledge and data analytics skills to provide scientific expertise to Clinical and Biological Activity groups in support of development of novel reduced-harm tobacco products and in compliance with regulatory requirements. Essential activities and responsibilities include but are not limited to the following:
• Reconcile/review analytical data to ensure data integrity
• Verify/evaluate analytical methodologies (used by both internal or third-party vendors) to ensure methods are fit-for-purpose for quantitative analysis of compounds (biomarkers) in target matrices (biological fluids, tobacco and related products, aerosol and smoke etc.)
• Generate bioanalytical study plans in alignment with the analytical data deliverables as specified in the study protocols
• Generate the scope of work (SOW) including detailed instructions to be followed by the third-party lab (i.e., sample handling, analysis, and data reporting)
• Research and recommend alternative strategies for analysis of new business-critical target compounds
• Provide regular reports and presentations on work outputs to customers and management
