About us

Edison Scientific builds and deploys AI scientist agents to accelerate science and the development of new medicines. We are an ambitious team run by scientists and engineers from leading institutions across biology, physics, chemistry, and AI.

About
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 are seeking an experienced Clinical Science Consultant for a flexible, part-time engagement. You'll serve as the subject matter expert who ensures our platform produces work that is scientifically sound, clinically meaningful, and aligned with current regulatory expectations.

We engage directly with domain experts to help design and build these capabilities, and to surface what we don't yet know. Your insights will help ensure we're solving the right problems for clinicians and development teams in the field.

Day to day that might look like any or all of the following sorts of activities (and more):

• Knowledge sharing about "day-in-the-life" as an expert working with data in these domains to assemble regulatory submissions.

• Describing common tasks or problems where AI could be of value in your workflows.

• Identify + describe internal pharma systems that are commonly used for standard workflows.

• Generate or review reference ground-truth artifacts to evaluate against - reports, data files, modules, etc.

• Identify + add realistic sources of variance or data corruption in study data.

• Identify and correct discrepancies in data quality.

Qualifications

• 10+ years of experience in clinical science or clinical development within the pharmaceutical/biotechnology industry, ideally with a sponsor.

• Bachelor's degree in a life sciences discipline required; advanced degree (MD, PhD, or PharmD) preferred.

• Hands-on experience designing and executing early-phase (Phase I and/or Phase II) clinical trials, including protocol development, endpoint selection, and study operational planning.

• Strong working knowledge of FDA and ICH guidelines governing clinical trial design and conduct, with experience contributing to or reviewing IND submissions.
