A Report on Contracting in Quantum Computing and Biopharma | Sacramento Valley, CA contractors

---

---

NOTE: This position is only open to contractors who are recent graduates or current students at universities in or reside within the Sacramento Valley in California. Thanks. Goal: To write a business report on the top freelancing marketplaces and other consulting platforms that could provide meaningful opportunities to complete work at the intersection of quantum algorithmic work and biopharmaceutical development. Why is this important: -Improvements in computational modeling techniques for biotechnological and pharmaceutical oriented companies has been regularly described as a key area of impact for quantum computing; at the same time, contracting on freelancing websites has greatly increased over the past many years. -Making strategic decisions between contracting from temp agencies versus contracting from freelancing markets could be usefully informed by freelancing marketplace business reports. -Wage, salary, and other pricing negotiation between hiring/contracting sources may be usefully plausible with increased market information to achieve fair market pricing for this company. -We want to be able to provide companies in the same industrial niche as Iff to mildly shop their market competition by observing any obvious, prominent, or salient in-class competitors supporting R&D pipelining of in silico drug design and evaluation (with no wetwork or in vitro work); freelancing market business reports could inform our business need for this competitor awareness and competitive pricing ranges. -Evaluation of freelance markets in business reports could allow us to evaluate the hiring patterns, capacities, and behaviors of competitors. We need greater awareness of competitors and how they hire from a similar labor source to predict their advancements. -This will also aid in understanding if any future, topologically focused quantum group as started by Iff’s collaborators at local quantum computing organizations and Quantum Computing at Davis would be able to tap into freelancer markets in order to work to facilitate potential projects and in being hired for future projects -The Sacramento Valley and its institutions are regularly left behind intercollegiate initiatives in quantum sciences and biopharma that organizations in the San Francisco Bay Area and the Greater Southern California Metropolis regularly have; However, large companies, such as Genentech and Novo Nordisk’s Novonesis (formerly Novozymes), and university spin outs, such as Ravata, have still decided to base themselves in the Sacramento Valley and are regularly looking for talent in the region. We want to be able to determine if they are providing such talent opportunities on existing freelancing platforms, and if further, localized R&D talent can be gained from such platforms. --Moreover, the Sacramento Valley has a highly diverse, highly skilled population, yet is often found attracting business opportunities that are overly focused on agriculture or on warehousing. In hiring for this job, we want to investigate any talent or workers interested in the intersection of quantum computing and biopharma in the region. Type of Position: Your Role: -Analyze posted tasks on Kolabtree, Freelancer, Upwork, and Catalent -Identify other freelancer platforms that might be needed -Identify if claims being made by freelancer platforms of big ticket clients, especially in biopharma and computation, hiring people from said freelancer platforms can be backed up --This can be completed by looking at the different tasks that are being asked for on each of the platforms -Highlight discrepancies between jobs being posted on the freelancer platforms and same jobs being completed at companies, especially big ticket clients, to determine labor cost differences, especially when taking into account other employee benefits (healthcare, etc.) -Collaborate with researchers looking into freelancer labor markets most recently to review some of the labor market highlights -Prepare to show all of the work completed; automation without corroboration will not be supported Base Qualifications -Completed collegiate-level English writing course(s) or equivalent -Is able to provide high-quality writing samples Ideal Candidate -Has an interest or inclination in working in biopharma and quantum algorithmic/processing work -Completed collegiate-level Technical Writing and/or Business Writing course(s) --It doesn’t have to be a patent diagram breakdown but it has to be significantly better than social media punditry -Has completed freelancing-oriented tasks or has studied making freelancing-oriented tasks -Is located in the Pacific Time zone and, more importantly, is located in the Northern California region -Is studying at a college within the Sacramento Valley -Has interests in follow-on writing projects or career goals that indicate such directed interests --Likely is attending a business school or is in a business development educational program -Has experience in writing strong bibliographies and being able to speak to all sources used in any piece of writing, including which search engines were used, to allow for replication of work --Especially would like to have someone who has experience with writing bibliographies with DOIs and links to web archive links in the case of webpage obsolescence/takedown.
