BI X will aim to accelerate research and development

Boehringer Ingelheim digital innovation team BI X

Boehringer Ingelheim is on the look out for UX designers, data scientists and front end engineers to help staff a new digital innovation team.

The German pharma firm hopes BI X’s combination of scientists, coders and designers will help accelerate its research and development efforts, as it builds the digital lab ‘from the ground up’.

“By harnessing the speed and intelligence of digital applications and analytics, our work will revolutionise drug trials and patient treatment worldwide,” the company notes.

It adds that the coders and designers it will recruit will “positively impact on the lives of millions”.

The BI X team will do this by leading Boehringer Ingelheim’s digital transformation and providing ‘value-adding’ innovation across the pharmaceutical company’s portfolio.

Boehringer notes its Ingelheim location in the Rhineland countryside is ‘off the beaten track’, but says “just because you work in Ingelheim doesn’t mean you have to live there”.

Instead the firm points to the “lively nightlife and hipster cafes” of nearby Mainz, the chic elegant city of Wiesbaden and the big city life of “buzzing Frankfurt”.
