About The Position

Sobi is hiring three Senior Medical Science Liaisons to support its lymphoma (lacutamab) work. This remote, field-based role can be performed from anywhere in the continental United States, with a strong preference for candidates located within 30–40 minutes of a major airport. The position supports an assigned U.S. geography and requires frequent domestic travel by ground and/or air (60% or more), depending on territory size, stakeholder needs, congress participation, and business requirements. The Senior Medical Science Liaison serves as a scientific expert on cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) and lacutamab, a humanized monoclonal antibody immunotherapy targeting KIR3DL2. The role builds trusted scientific relationships, exchanges balanced medical information, and generates actionable insights that inform U.S. Medical Affairs strategy and launch readiness. It supports Sobi’s rare disease portfolio in hematology and serves as a scientific resource across hematology-oncology, dermatology, and dermato-oncology communities. This is a field execution role within Hematology Medical Affairs. The MSL contributes field perspective and insights to CTCL medical strategy led by Medical Affairs leadership, while collaborating with academic, community, and multidisciplinary care teams in accordance with regulatory, legal, and compliance requirements.

Attendance at local, regional, and national meetings is required, including occasional evening or weekend programs as business needs require.
