Toxicology Consultant
Consulting Opportunity: Staff Toxicologist
About Edison Scientific
Edison Scientific builds and commercializes AI agents for science. Scientific discovery moves too slowly, and autonomous AI agents are how we intend to fix that. We're assembling a team of top researchers and engineers across AI and biology to build an AI scientist.
The Opportunity
We're seeking an experienced Staff Toxicologist for a flexible, part-time consulting engagement. You'll serve as the subject matter expert who defines the gold standard for AI-generated toxicology data and reports — ensuring our platform produces outputs that are scientifically accurate and regulatory-grade.
This is designed to fit around existing commitments. Most of our consultants are fully employed elsewhere and engage with us on an as-needed basis, with no fixed schedule or rigid hour requirements.
What You'll Do
Advise on strategies for data assembly and synthesis to evaluate and train toxicology capabilities of our AI platform
Provide expert guidance on optimal data sources — synthetic generation, consortia, licensed datasets, and other approaches
Serve as our go-to expert on IND-ready toxicology reports for Phase 1 clinical trials
Review and validate AI-generated toxicology outputs for scientific accuracy and regulatory compliance
Collaborate with our engineering, evals, and science teams to benchmark and improve agent performance
Iterate with AI tools (including our platform) to refine data quality and output accuracy
What We're Looking For
10+ years of experience in toxicology/DMPK, OR direct involvement in 10+ IND-enabling toxicology reports
Deep experience synthesizing raw CRO toxicology study data into FDA-ready IND submissions for Phase 1 clinical trials
Proficiency with standard commercial software used in preparing regulatory toxicology reports
Background in non-clinical toxicology, including target animal safety and related study types
Ability to work independently — you'll be the primary scientific voice on toxicology at Edison
Comfortable and enthusiastic about working with AI/LLM tools to evaluate and improve outputs
PhD in Pharmacology, Toxicology, or related field preferred, but not required — real-world experience is prioritized
Bonus Points
Prior experience with computational toxicology tools
AI/ML work applied to toxicology
Background at big pharma or consulting organizations serving big pharma
Exposure to orphan/rare disease or gene therapy non-clinical programs
Additional Notes
Remote/US based
Flexible hours / flexible time zone
