About the role

Southern Research offers a challenging role in synthetic chemistry for small molecule drug discovery. You will design, synthesize and characterize organic compounds, maintain notebooks, and contribute to publications and patents under PI guidance. You will interpret analytical and PK data, operate specialized equipment, and stay current with literature while collaborating across teams in a dynamic lab environment.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
