Together, we chase the miracles of science to improve people’s lives.

• Lead and drive oncology and immuno‑oncology discovery programs, from target identification through preclinical proof‑of‑concept.
• Contribute deep expertise in cancer biology, tumor immunology, and translational science, informing target selection, indication strategy, and experimental design.
• Support the discovery and preclinical development of innovative cancer therapeutics using diverse modalities, including small‑molecule inhibitors, targeted degraders, and biologics.
• Provide scientific leadership while remaining capable of hands‑on laboratory work, as needed, to directly support project teams.
• Manage and coordinate external collaborations with CROs, academic groups, and industry partners, ensuring scientific rigor, alignment with project goals, and timely delivery.

• PhD (or equivalent) in cancer biology, immunology, molecular biology, or a related life sciences discipline.
• Postdoctoral and industry experience in cancer biology and/or immuno‑oncology research.
• Strong track record in target identification and validation, mechanism‑of‑action studies, and biomarker discovery.
• Demonstrated experience supporting preclinical development of oncology therapeutics.
• Highly familiar with multiple therapeutic modalities, including small molecules, degraders (e.g., PROTACs), and biologics.
• Proven ability to lead scientific projects while contributing experimentally when required.
• Experience managing external research collaborations with CROs and academic or industry partners.
• Excellent scientific communication skills.
• Experience working with large scale data mining, or target discovery and translation to patient.

• Prior experience advancing programs from target‑ID to development candidate.
• Publications and/or patents in oncology or immuno‑oncology research.
• Experience working in a matrixed, cross‑functional pharmaceutical research environment.

• Bring the miracles of science to life alongside a supportive, future‑focused team.
• Discover endless opportunities to grow your talent and drive your career, whether it’s through a promotion or lateral move, at home or internationally.
• Enjoy a thoughtful, well‑crafted rewards package that recognizes your contribution and amplifies your impact.
• Take good care of yourself and your family, with a wide range of health and wellbeing benefits including high‑quality healthcare, prevention and wellness programs and at least 14 weeks’ gender‑neutral parental leave.
• Be part of a pioneering biopharma company that engages patients early in drug development and uses their insights to design studies that reflect real‑world needs.
