About The Position

About Generate:Biomedicines Generate:Biomedicines is a new kind of therapeutics company – existing at the intersection of machine learning, biological engineering, and medicine – pioneering Generative Biology™ to create breakthrough medicines where novel therapeutics are computationally generated, instead of being discovered. The Company has built a machine learning-powered biomedicines platform with the potential to generate new drugs across a wide range of biologic modalities. This platform represents a potentially fundamental shift in what is possible in the field of biotherapeutic development. We pursue this audacious vision because we believe in the unique and revolutionary power of generative biology to radically transform the lives of billions, with an outsized opportunity for patients in need. We are seeking collaborative, relentless problem solvers that share our passion for impact to join us! Generate:Biomedicines was founded in 2018 by Flagship Pioneering and has offices in Somerville and Andover, Massachusetts with 300+ employees. The Role: We are seeking a Product Leader to define and scale Generate’s Agentic Science Platform - building the infrastructure, tools, and ecosystem that enable AI agents to meaningfully accelerate drug discovery from early discovery through clinical development. This leader will own the product vision and roadmap for agentic capabilities across the organization. They will help shape our internal agentic capabilities (tooling, orchestration layers, data interfaces, evaluation frameworks) while also identifying, evaluating, and onboarding external tools and partners that extend our platform. Working across machine learning, research, preclinical, clinical, engineering, and operations teams, this role will translate scientific workflows into scalable agentic systems that enhance decision-making, automate complexity, and unlock scientific velocity. This is a high-impact, cross-functional role at the intersection of AI, platform strategy, and therapeutic innovation. You will work onsite in our Somerville, MA.
