Recursion Pharmaceuticals
Recursion's Platform
The Recursion OS is our platform for the industrialization of drug discovery, linking digital and physical workflows to automate therapeutic program initiation and optimization in a scaled, data-driven manner. These workflows automatically validate biological insights from high-dimensional in vitro profiling and optimize chemical matter through loops of experimental data, ML predictions, and are powered by patient datasets and Recursion’s “maps of biology” – a unique system integrating genome-scale reverse genetics and chemical profiling in a high-dimensional, uniform biological assay to predict trillions of relationships between biological perturbations and therapeutic candidates.
As the Vice President, Translational Data Science you’ll set the strategy and drive the implementation of connecting data from our genome-scale -omics platforms with population- and patient-derived genetics in the real world and leverage advanced analytics including ML/data science to identify and validate target selection, the right disease and patient linkages to our -omics phenotypes, and driving precision medicine via the development of translational biomarkers and patient selection to advance our therapeutic programs. In this role, you will:
Success in this role will be primarily defined by the impact you show on the industrialization of program initiation with translatable genetic/genomic insights, and of program progression to the development with defined, validated biomarker strategies in clinical development. Success will be defined by the delivery from and development of the therapeutic area computational teams reporting to you.
The Team You’ll Join
As the VP, Translational Data Science/Computational Biology, you will report to the SVP Clinical Development & Data Science, joining a diverse leadership team spanning research, development, data science, machine learning, computational chemistry, and computational biology across Recursion. You will collaborate with peer leaders in data science, biology, chemistry, and engineering to drive both present execution and future industrialization in both Recursion’s core therapeutic areas of oncology, neuroscience and future areas.
The Experience You’ll Need
Location:
Making one of our offices your home base is preferred – London, New York City, or Salt Lake City – however, we are open to remote work for this position. We ask that remote employees commit to regular on-site visits (~50% travel) for routine work and departmental events.
How You’ll be Supported
At Recursion, we’re working to solve some of the most meaningful challenges in human health. During onboarding, you’ll be introduced to the Recursion Mindset and Recursion OS through a blend of in-person and online resources designed to help you quickly embrace our culture. You’ll be paired with an onboarding "Trail Guide" to support you in your first months and connect with colleagues, both in person and remotely, who will guide you through the traditional and Recursion-specific aspects of your role. Additionally, you’ll join onboarding events, like Decoding Recursion, to deepen your understanding and integration into the team.
