Role Overview
Jade Biosciences is seeking an experienced and strategic Vice President, Medical Affairs to build and lead the Company’s medical affairs function as our differentiated pipeline advances through late-stage development and toward commercialization.

The successful candidate will serve as a scientific and clinical thought partner to internal teams and external stakeholders, translating rigorous target biology and clinical data into compelling medical and scientific engagement.
This is a high-visibility leadership role for a physician (MD) who combines deep therapeutic-area expertise — ideally in nephrology and/or immunology/rheumatology — with a proven track record of building medical affairs capabilities in the biopharmaceutical industry.

- Scientific & Stakeholder Engagement
- Establish and cultivate relationships with key opinion leaders, investigators, patient advocacy groups, and professional societies in nephrology and immunology/rheumatology.
- Lead advisory boards, scientific exchange, and congress strategy to inform development and generate insights.
- Represent Jade externally as a credible medical and scientific voice.
- Evidence Generation & Communication
- Direct medical affairs evidence-generation activities, including real-world evidence, investigator-sponsored studies, and publication strategy.
- Oversee the development of high-quality, scientifically accurate medical communications, publications, and medical information resources.
- Ensure launch readiness of the medical organization in preparation for JADE101 and subsequent programs.
- Compliance & Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Ensure all medical affairs activities are conducted in full compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and industry codes.
- Partner cross-functionally with clinical operations, regulatory, biometrics, and commercial teams to support integrated program strategy.
Qualifications
Required Experience
- MD required (board certification and/or relevant post-graduate clinical training strongly preferred).
- 10+ years of biopharmaceutical industry experience, with progressive leadership responsibility in medical affairs and/or clinical development.
- Demonstrated success building or leading medical affairs functions, including field medical teams, in a clinical-stage or commercial organization.
- Proven ability to engage credibly with key opinion leaders, investigators, and external scientific stakeholders.
- Strong knowledge of the regulatory, compliance, and legal frameworks governing medical affairs activities.
- Excellent scientific communication, leadership, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
Preferred Experience
- Renal (nephrology) experience — e.g., IgA nephropathy or other glomerular diseases — is a strong plus.
- Immunology / rheumatology experience and familiarity with B-cell– and autoantibody-driven autoimmune diseases is a strong plus.
- Experience supporting late-stage development and/or product launch in a rare or specialty autoimmune indication.
- Familiarity with biologics/monoclonal antibody therapeutics and biomarker-driven development.
Position Location
This is a remote role; periodic travel to team and company events is required.
