About
Edison Scientific builds and commercializes AI agents for science. Scientific discovery moves too slowly, and autonomous AI agents are how we intend to fix that. We're assembling a team of top researchers and engineers across AI and biology to build an AI scientist.

The Opportunity
We are seeking an experienced CMC Technical Writing Consultant for a flexible, part-time engagement. You'll serve as the subject matter expert who defines the gold standard for AI-generated CMC documentation — ensuring our platform produces outputs that are technically accurate, submission-ready, and aligned with current regulatory expectations.

This is an opportunity to directly influence how CMC content gets written, reviewed, and refined at scale. Your expertise will help shape the quality bar our tools are held to, from drug substance and drug product descriptions to manufacturing process narratives and quality control summaries.

This engagement is designed to fit around existing commitments, at approximately 5–20 hours per week.

We engage with domain experts to help design and build these tasks, and help us know what we don’t know. Day to day that might look like any or all of the following sorts of activities (and more):

• Knowledge sharing about "day-in-the-life" as an expert working with data in these domains to assemble regulatory submissions.

• Describing common tasks or problems where AI could be of value in your workflows.

• Identify + describe internal pharma systems that are commonly used for standard workflows.

• Generate or review reference ground-truth artifacts to evaluate against - reports, data files, modules, etc.

• Identify + add realistic sources of variance or data corruption in study data.

• Identify and correct discrepancies in data quality.

Qualifications

• 10+ years of experience in CMC regulatory writing within the pharmaceutical/biotechnology industry, ideally with a sponsor.

• Bachelor's Degree required; Advanced degree preferred.

• Hands-on experience authoring Module 3 documents, including drug substance and drug product sections for IND submissions.

• Strong understanding of CMC regulatory requirements and familiarity with ICH guidelines and FDA/EMA expectations.

• Experience supporting regulatory submissions across early-phase INDs.
