About the job
Who We Are:
Cogent Biosciences is a pioneering biotechnology firm dedicated to creating innovative precision therapies aimed at addressing a wide array of unmet medical needs. Our flagship program, bezuclastinib, is engineered to selectively and effectively inhibit exon 17 mutations within the KIT receptor tyrosine kinase, including the KIT D816V mutation, which plays a critical role in a rare and severe condition known as Systemic Mastocytosis. Additionally, exon 17 mutations are prevalent in patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), a cancer type that significantly relies on oncogenic KIT signaling. Bezuclastinib has shown promising initial results across three clinical trials: APEX in AdvSM, SUMMIT in NonAdvSM, and PEAK in GIST, demonstrating an encouraging safety profile in over 600 patients with both single-agent and combination dosing.
The Role:
As Cogent Biosciences gears up for its inaugural commercial launch, we are in search of a proactive and driven Director of IT Business Partner to oversee Commercial, Medical Affairs, and Corporate Applications. In this strategic and hands-on role, you will work closely with cross-functional business leaders and teams to document and implement the technology roadmap for these sectors. You will be instrumental in supporting various existing and new system implementations in our dynamic environment.
This position reports directly to the Vice President of Information Technology and is classified as a hybrid role; candidates should be located near our Waltham, MA office.
