Principal Scientist/Senior Principal Scientist - X-ray Crystallography
Cambridge, MA
Requisition Number: CHM21-902
Blueprint Medicines is a global precision therapy company that invents life-changing therapies for people with cancer and hematologic disorders. Applying an approach that is both precise and agile, we create medicines that selectively target genetic drivers, with the goal of staying one step ahead across stages of disease. Since 2011, we have leveraged our research platform, including expertise in molecular targeting and world-class drug design capabilities, to rapidly and reproducibly translate science into a broad pipeline of precision therapies. Today, we are delivering approved medicines directly to patients in the United States and Europe, and we are globally advancing multiple programs for genomically defined cancers, systemic mastocytosis, and cancer immunotherapy.
What will you do?
Blueprint Medicines has built an integrated discovery platform that combines genomics and medicinal chemistry expertise with a novel kinase inhibitor library. Additionally, Blueprint is exploring complementary modalities to inhibit kinases as well as exploring protein targets outside of kinases. To aid in our mission of rapidly developing highly selective compounds to address clear genomic drivers of disease, we are seeking an experienced and motivated scientist with expertise in x-ray crystallography to join our Drug Discovery team. In this role, the ideal candidate will coordinate crystallographic and biophysical needs and apply structure-based drug design principles across multiple discovery projects.
