Careers
WORKING WITH US
In a typical project, our team works closely with the client Pharma R&D team to gather the required information on drug & disease physiology, builds the model and then simulates various scenarios. These simulations help client R&D teams clearly visualize various possible outcomes, and therefore make more effective decisions at each stage of the life-cycle, which can range from terminating a project which seems likely to fail, or designing clinical trials with the optimal dose & dosing regimen for the target population. New team members go through an 8-12 week ramp up period in which they are exposed to various aspects of the job – industry, project lifecycle, exposure to relevant research tools, techniques and processes. Following this training period, team members will join a customer project and directly interact with client R&D teams working on novel drug development projects. At Vantage, we are building a team of people who enjoy applying their quantitative talents to real-world problems in the Healthcare and Pharmaceutical industry.
What can you expect if you join us?- a startup with a flat organizational structure, and a friendly, enjoyable work environment
- a culture in which we work intensely on projects, but are serious about work-life balance
- a cutting edge research environment with an opportunity to impact novel drug development
- a transparent environment in which performance translates to growth
REACH OUT TO US!
We are always looking for talented and qualified candidates with an interest in applying quantitative and computational techniques to problems in pharmaceutical drug development and healthcare. You will be part of a global team of experts from multiple disciplines, striving to design and develop new drugs and deliver them to the market. If you are interested, please send an email with your resume to careers@vantage-research.net.

R&D TRACK FOR UNDERGRADUATES
For B. Tech and B.E. students, we offer a 1-2 year R&D track program. This program is targeted at research oriented undergraduates who are planning to pursue an advanced degree, but would like to spend a year or two getting industrial research experience. Vantage works with global customers on cutting edge science and provides real-world R&D experience that enhances the employee’s scientific research credentials, while the exposure will help them determine which area to specialize in. R&D trackers will be encouraged to work on scientific publications and will be provided guidance and support in applying to advanced degree programs.
