About this role

Senior Scientist, Analytical Chemistry Cambridge, MA USA Your Impact at LILA The Senior Scientist, Analytical Chemistry will develop and deploy advanced analytical and characterization strategies to support Discovery Chemistry efforts across Lila's platform, with a focus on enabling the rapid design, synthesis, screening, and optimization of small molecules and related molecular matter. This scientist will play a key role in generating high-quality, information-rich experimental data that informs chemistry decisions and accelerates platform learning. Working closely with Discovery Chemistry, automation, AI/computational, and screening teams, this role will establish and scale multimodal characterization workflows that go beyond traditional analytical chemistry approaches. The Senior Scientist will help build an integrated analytical capability spanning compound characterization, reaction monitoring, molecular profiling, and high-throughput data generation to support fast and iterative design-make-test-analyze cycles. This role will be critical to shaping Lila's next-generation discovery engine by combining deep expertise in analytical chemistry with high-throughput experimentation, multimodal data generation, AI-enabled workflows. What You'll Be Building - Develop, optimize, and implement analytical and multimodal characterization workflows to support Discovery Chemistry programs and molecular discovery campaigns. - Support the design, synthesis, screening, and optimization of small molecules by delivering rapid, reliable, and information-rich analytical data. - Lead analytical method development for compound identification, purity assessment, impurity profiling, reaction monitoring, and molecular characterization using techniques such as liquid chromatography, mass spectroscopy, NMR, and complementary orthogonal methods. - Build characterization strategies that extend beyond traditional analytical methods , incorporating multimodal measurements that provide deeper insight into molecular identity, reaction outcomes, physicochemical properties,
