About Jade Biosciences

Jade Biosciences is focused on developing innovative, best‑in‑class therapies to address critical unmet needs in autoimmune diseases. Our lead candidate, JADE101, is designed to inhibit the cytokine APRIL (A Proliferation‑Inducing Ligand) and is being developed for the treatment of immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN), a chronic kidney disease that can impair kidney function over time. JADE101 aims to reduce harmful IgA antibodies, lower proteinuria (a key marker of kidney damage), and preserve long‑term kidney function. A Phase 1 healthy‑volunteer study of JADE101 is ongoing, with interim, biomarker‑rich data expected in the first half of 2026. Jade’s pipeline also includes a second development candidate, JADE201, and an undisclosed antibody discovery program, JADE‑003, both currently in preclinical development.

Role Overview

Reporting to the Senior Medical Director, the Medical Director will oversee several studies across Jade programs from a Clinical Development perspective, ensuring study integrity and active collaboration with cross‑functional teams to support successful trial execution. This is a fully remote role and will require occasional travel.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the design, execution, and oversight of clinical trials and provide leadership to study teams, ensuring effective collaboration and achievement of milestones.
  • Serve as a Medical Monitor for clinical trials ranging from Phase 1 to Phase 3 studies, ensuring study integrity and closely tracking safety and efficacy data.
  • Analyze, interpret, and report clinical data to drive informed decision‑making.
  • Ensure the timely and accurate completion of trial‑related documents, including clinical trial protocols, investigator brochures, medical monitoring plans, site training materials, clinical study reports, regulatory submissions, and SOPs.
  • Build and maintain relationships with investigative sites, clinical consultants, and key opinion leaders to advocate for the company’s interests.
  • Collaborate with the internal safety team to analyze and report safety data, including SAEs from clinical trials.
  • Apply medical expertise and hands‑on clinical experience to ensure the relevance and rigor of the development program.
  • Collaborate with cross‑functional teams to optimize product development.
  • Continuously maintain the highest level of scientific and clinical expertise in the relevant disease‑specific area.

Qualifications

  • MD degree with completion of an ACGME accredited residency.
  • 3+ years of experience in academics or industry; candidates without industry experience should preferably have completed a fellowship.
  • Experience in clinical trial design, execution, and medical monitoring.
  • Strong clinical judgment, scientific rigor, and regulatory knowledge.
  • Ability to work independently and thrive in a fast‑paced, matrixed environment.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously and prioritize effectively in a fast‑paced environment.
  • Strong analytical, problem‑solving, and decision‑making skills.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to influence and motivate cross‑functional teams, manage a diverse set of stakeholders, and work closely with team leaders.
  • High ethical standards and impeccable integrity.
  • Exercise sound judgment in managing complex, confidential, and regulated information.
  • Position Location

    This is a remote role; periodic travel to team and company events is required.

    Salary

    The anticipated salary range for candidates for this role is $270,000–$300,000. The final salary offered will depend on several factors, which may include, but are not limited to, relevant years of experience, educational background, and geography.
