Reporting to the Director, Analytical Development & QC, this individual will shape Immunome's small molecule analytical development and QC strategy and advance our oncology pipeline. Responsibilities Strategic Leadership Develop and execute phase-appropriate analytical development and QC strategies for ADC linker payload components, small molecule intermediates, and drug substance, including specifications and control strategies. Provide technical leadership for analytical method development, qualification, validation, and lifecycle management. Establish and maintain analytical development plans, stability strategies, and comparability/bridging approaches to support process changes, scale-up, and technology transfers. Program Oversight and Execution Manage execution of analytical testing to support in-process controls, release, stability, and characterization. Partner with cross-functional leaders across CMC, Process Chemistry, Manufacturing, QA, and Regulatory to ensure seamless integration of analytical deliverables within development timelines. Critically review and interpret analytical data to troubleshoot methods, manufacturing issues, investigate OOS/OOT results, and drive root-cause analysis and CAPA activities. Support review of batch records from an analytical perspective. Vendor and Partner Management Manage and provide technical oversight of CDMOs, and contract testing labs to ensure high-quality, timely, and compliant method development, validation, and routine QC testing. Lead scope definition, issue resolution, deviations, change controls, and inspection readiness activities.
