- Engage with investigators and key opinion leaders to support site selection, study conduct, and refine clinical strategy.
What we're looking for
- MD (or equivalent) with fellowship training in adult or pediatric oncology or hematology-oncology.
- At least 3 years of experience in biotech or pharma oncology drug development; immune-oncology and lymphoma experience preferred.
- Hands-on experience with early-phase clinical trials (Phase 1/2); exposure to registrational trial design and execution preferred.
- Strong communication skills, experience presenting data and plans to leadership teams and external partners.
- Enjoys working in a fast-paced, collaborative small-company setting.
- Based in the Seattle area (or willing to relocate) and able to be in the office at least 3 days per week.
