As an Applications Scientist at Schrödinger K.K., you will work at the intersection of cutting-edge computational science and real-world industrial application. This role offers a unique opportunity to leverage your research background while engaging directly with Japan's leading research institutions and corporations - creating meaningful scientific and commercial impact.

This is an ideal position for someone who is ready to move beyond the bench and apply their expertise where science meets business.

Who will love this job:

  • A materials or polymer research scientist with experience using molecular dynamics (MD), quantum mechanics (QM), or machine learning (ML)
  • A proficient Python programmer who's passionate about the real-world application and industrial implementation of computational science, beyond traditional research roles
  • An effective communicator who can convey complex scientific concepts clearly to customers and researchers
  • A self-motivated team player who works well both independently and collaboratively
  • An enthusiastic traveler who'll enjoy visiting customer sites across Japan

What you’ll do:

  • Provide scientific and technical support to existing and prospective customers, including software demonstrations, facilitation of interactions between customers and product development teams, and general scientific guidance
  • Troubleshoot scientific workflows, administration, and adaptation of customer modeling environments
  • Advise customers on best practices for computational modeling and materials design
  • Act as a bridge between customers and product development teams, gathering and sharing feedback
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Account Managers and Marketing teams to support business strategies
  • Publish scientific papers and present at academic meetings, conferences, and exhibitions
  • Execute or support contract analysis and research services

What you’ll need:

  • PhD in materials science, polymer science, computational chemistry, physical chemistry, or a related field
  • Research experience in MD, QM, or ML - we value learning agility and practical application over depth of specialization alone
  • Python programming experience
  • Native-level Japanese proficiency for customer and internal communications, document and slide preparation, reporting, and academic presentations
  • Working English proficiency for emails, reports, and web conferences
  • Willingness and ability to travel as required

Pay and Perks:
