Director - Target Discovery Biology

In this vital leadership role, you will join Amgen’s Target Discovery & Biology (TD&B) organization within DATA, helping to define and deliver the next generation of discovery biology. TD&B integrates perturbation technologies, multi-omics profiling, regulatory genomics, human genetics, and advanced disease models to uncover novel therapeutic targets and deep biological insights that fuel Amgen’s mission to serve patients. As Director, you will lead a multidisciplinary discovery organization spanning functional perturbation biology, viral technologies, high-throughput screening, and advanced cellular model systems. Together, these capabilities form a core engine for the identification of novel therapeutic targets across Amgen’s therapeutic areas. This role also sits at the intersection of human genetics and experimental biology, driving systematic functional interrogatoin of genetic hypotheses and building scalable discovery platforms that accelerate target identification and validation.
