Solution Scientist

About Artos:At Artos, we build tools that help biopharma companies create and manage their R&D documentation in a fraction of the time. If you’re looking to join a team whose mission is to fundamentally change the way that drug development gets done, we’d love to talk to you.We’re growing very fast, and we’re looking for a domain-expert technical product lead —someone with a strong pharma background who can sit between engineering teams and end users, help implement our system in real customer environments, and translate deeply technical capabilities into workflows that actually make sense to scientists, medical writers, and regulatory teams.This is not a traditional product manager role, nor a traditional medical writing role. It’s a hybrid: part domain architect, part technical translator, part customer-facing problem solver. The Role: As a core member of Artos’s product team, you will act as the bridge between engineering and domain experts. Your primary responsibility will be to help design, implement, and evolve systems that generate and manage regulatory and R&D documentation—particularly in the non-clinical and/or CMC domains—by ensuring that domain reality is faithfully represented in the product. You will work closely with: End users: (medical writers, regulatory professionals, scientists) to understand how documents are actually authored, reviewed, and quality-controlled in practiceEngineering teams: to translate those workflows, constraints, and edge cases into system behaviorProduct leadership: to shape feature scope, prioritization, and release readiness You will help explain how the system works to users, collect feedback on where it breaks down, and communicate those insights back to engineering in a way that is precise, actionable, and technically useful. What You’ll Actually Do: This role is about systems, not just documents. You will: Deconstruct how regulatory and R&D documents are authored, reviewed, and QC’d in real organizationsTranslate domain rules, conventions, and preferences into clear product and engineering requirementsHelp implement Artos in customer environments and support early adoptionEvaluate AI-generated outputs for correctness, structure, and regulatory soundnessIdentify gaps, inconsistencies, and edge cases, and work with engineers to resolve themHelp validate features ahead of release by stress-testing them against real-worlduse casesCommunicate technical system behavior to non-technical users, and user needs back to engineers You’ll work across a wide range of content: CTD modules, internal summaries, briefing packages, templates, and sponsor-facing deliverables. You don’t need to be an expert in every document type on day one, but you do need to learn quickly and explain what you learn clearly. Who This Role Is For: This role is ideal for someone who: Comes from pharma or biotech and deeply understands regulatory documentationIs excited by product design and system thinking, not just writingEnjoys acting as a translator between technical and non-technical teamsWants to shape how AI systems behave in regulated environments Qualifications: 3+ years of experience in medical writing, regulatory affairs, or a closely related pharma roleDirect experience drafting, reviewing, or overseeing CTD content (especially non-clinical)and/or CMC)Strong understanding of regulatory expectations across FDA, EMA, and ICHExperience working cross-functionally with regulatory, scientific, and technical stakeholdersStrong written and verbal communication skills Requirements: Ability to analyze workflows and extract rules, patterns, and constraintsComfort reviewing structured or semi-structured system outputs (including AI-generated content)Ability to communicate clearly with engineers and product teamsWillingness to be customer-facing and support implementationand feedback loopsFamiliarity with structured data formats (XML, JSON) is a plusExperience working with life sciences software tools is a plusAbility to operate independently in a fast-moving startup environmentOther Information:Very comfortable working in a fast-paced and intense startup environmentWilling to work in-person in our office in Mission Bay 4-5 days/weekLikes matcha KitKats, believes every LLM prompt is just Schrödinger’s cat waiting to be observed, and knows too many random facts about the Mongol postal system
