• Champion data quality, reproducibility, and scientifically sound interpretation; mentor scientists; communicate study strategy, results, and risk assessments to senior leadership, cross-functional stakeholders, and regulatory-facing teams; and advance cardiovascular safety pharmacology capabilities, workflows, and technologies.
• Manage (directly and indirectly) team members in a matrixed environment to help plan, coordinate, and prioritize studies.

• PhD in physiology, pharmacology, toxicology, or a related field, with 10+ years of relevant experience in cardiovascular biology, safety pharmacology, or a closely related discipline.
• Demonstrated cardiovascular biology and safety pharmacology expertise, including the ability to design, execute, interpret, and report in vivo cardiovascular studies.
• Experience with rodent and large-animal studies, including canine and nonhuman-primate models.
• Experience authoring and implementing SOPs, with working knowledge of GLP, quality systems, and regulatory-ready documentation.
• Strong written and verbal scientific communication skills; demonstrated ability to lead in a matrixed environment, apply critical thinking, troubleshoot complex study issues, and manage multiple priorities effectively.
