Synthetic/Process Chemist Intern/Co-Op (PHD Candidate)

We are seeking a highly motivated Ph.D. candidate in Organic Chemistry, Medicinal Chemistry, Process Chemistry, or a related discipline to join our synthetic and process chemistry team. This internship is designed for 4th- or 5th-year doctoral students with a proven track record of research excellence and strong laboratory execution.

The successful candidate will contribute to both synthetic route development and process optimization activities, working closely with experienced chemists to advance challenging chemistry programs from bench-scale synthesis through process development.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and execute multi-step organic syntheses.
• Develop and optimize synthetic routes for target molecules and intermediates.
• Investigate reaction conditions, scale-up considerations, and process robustness.
• Analyze reaction outcomes using standard analytical techniques (NMR, LC-MS, HPLC, GC, etc.).
• Maintain accurate laboratory records and effectively communicate research findings.
• Collaborate with cross-functional scientists to solve synthetic and process-related challenges.
