What this job asks for AI summary
This role centers on building and deploying AI-powered software tools — including LLM-driven applications, intelligent agents, and interactive visualization platforms — to streamline data science workflows within a pharmaceutical setting. A secondary focus involves supporting pharmacometric data preparation, regulatory submission packages, and quality control of clinical datasets. It suits a full-stack developer with data science grounding who wants to apply AI/ML engineering in drug development.

Why we read it this way (7)
This role is titled 'Senior' but gates on only 2+ years of software development experience and a Master's (or Bachelor's with significant experience), which aligns more with a Mid-level band. The 'Senior' label appears to reflect the title framing rather than the experience requirements.
Three work locations are listed with separate salary bands: Cambridge Crossing ($128,670–$155,921), Princeton NJ ($111,890–$135,579), and Tampa FL ($111,890–$135,579). The Cambridge Crossing (MA) figures are shown as the primary comp range; the CBSA reflects that location.
The role is genuinely hybrid between Data Science (ML/AI application building, LLM agents, data science workflows) and Software Development (full-stack web apps, FastAPI/React, software engineering practices). Data Scientist is the primary classification given the explicit framing and team placement, but Software Developers is a close runner-up.
The degree requirement accepts a Bachelor's with 'significant experience' as an alternative to a Master's, so no hard degree floor is set.
React and Angular are listed as examples of 'modern web technologies' within the required qualifications section; FastAPI, Flask, and Node.js are similarly listed as examples. They are treated as hard gates on full-stack capability, with the named tools as interchangeable alternatives within each tier (front-end vs. back-end).
SAS/R pharmaceutical dataset experience and NONMEM/NLME/WinNonlin pharmacometric experience appear under Preferred Qualifications with specific year thresholds (2+ years and 1+ year respectively).
AI-assisted development tools (Claude Code, Codex, GitHub Copilot) are listed under Preferred Qualifications.
