Postdoc in Process Chemistry and Digital Synthesis

We are currently looking for a 12-months (with the possibility to extend the contract to 24-months) Postdoctoral Fellowship contract in our Process Technology department in Münchwilen. The role sits at the interface of chemistry and digital innovation, focused on designing and evaluating human-in-the-loop methodologies that combine generative chemistry AI with expert synthetic knowledge to accelerate synthesis route scouting. You will collaborate across teams, benchmarking digital synthesis tools and identifying the most promising directions for adoption across Syngenta's synthesis programs. You will be given the opportunity to develop new skills while working at the cutting edge of chemistry, data science and AI.

Your responsibilities: 

• Design and execute structured evaluations of generative chemistry AI tools combined with expert chemical judgment 

• Develop and document reusable benchmarks based on internal route catal...
