Biostatistics Director, Medical Affairs Remote

When was the last time you achieved the impossible? If that thought feels overwhelming you might want to pause here, but if it sparks excitement read on. In 2015 we pioneered a “moneyball for biotech” approach, pooling projects and promising early‑stage research from academia together under one financial umbrella to reduce risk and unleash innovation. This model allows science and small teams of experts to lead the way.

We build bridges to groundbreaking advancements in rare disease and develop life‑changing medicines for patients with unmet needs as fast as humanly possible. Together we define white space, push boundaries, and empower people to solve problems. If you're someone who defies convention, join us and work alongside some of the most respected minds in the industry. Together we’ll ask “why not?”

and help reengineer the future of biopharma. At Bridge Bio we value curiosity and experimentation—including the ethical & thoughtful use of AI to improve clarity, speed, and quality of work.
