Rosa's Approach

Associate Engineer and Senior Engineer, PhysioPD

Engineers work with Scientists in our PhysioPD practice to develop physiologically-based, dynamic mathematical models and conduct simulations of disease, drug action, and (pre)clinical studies.

Associate and Senior Engineers are responsible for:

  • Developing physiologically-based dynamic mathematical models and conducting simulations of disease, drug action, and (pre)clinical studies;
  • Working in conjunction with Rosa Life Scientists to cultivate data in support of model construction and interpretation;
  • Defining key issues, presenting results, and developing associated regulatory reports;
  • Leading projects, assisting with client relationship management, and participating in Rosa’s business management, depending on the candidate’s experience and professional goals.

The ideal Associate or Senior Engineer candidate will have:

  • A post-graduate degree in chemical engineering, control systems, applied mathematics, physics, statistics, bioengineering, or a related quantitative field with emphasis on nonlinear dynamic systems and control theory;
  • A minimum of two (2) years of relevant industry experience in, for example, mathematical modeling and simulation, control system modeling, or pharmacometrics;
  • • Proficiency with industry-standard dynamic modeling software such as J-Designer or Mathematica;
  • Demonstrated ability to address complex drug development problems with incisive modeling approaches, excellent written and verbal communication skills, and ability to work independently and as part of a collaborative Rosa-client project team.
