insitro is using machine learning to yield new, clinically actionable insights into critical unmet needs for patients. We aim to "go fast and improve things" across the entire drug development process from platform to pipeline to patients and back again.
The SD/VP Clinical Operations is an opportunity to directly improve patients' lives by leading clinical trial operations across four areas, each informed by machine learning: metabolism, neurology/neurodegeneration, oncology, and innovative companion diagnostics. We are devoted to the effort to make clinical trials more helpful for patients and for drug developers. We believe that by focusing on what's best for patients, we can do what's best for drug development at the same time.
You will build and then lead the clinical operations function at insitro, including by developing and implementing clinical operations strategies to support the development of multiple therapeutics and diagnostics. How to identify the right patients, enroll them efficiently, and obtain, validate, and document robust clinical data to inform decision making remain key challenges for clinical trial operations. Therefore, you will be at the forefront of designing and implementing innovative, accelerated operations approaches, and you will have the opportunity to utilize insitro’s machine learning expertise to achieve operational excellence.
You will report directly to the Chief Medical Officer. This role can be either onsite (3 days per week) in our South San Francisco office or hybrid (~1 week per month) in our office. Additional travel may be needed to relevant medical and health authorities.
This is an excellent opportunity for a seasoned clinical operations professional who is passionate about using their skills and experience to accelerate the drug development process and bring better drugs to the patients who can benefit most.
