About the Role

Amgen is seeking a Senior Principal Scientist, Integrated Technology, Computation & Experimental Biology, to define and execute integrated strategies connecting human biology, computation, AI-enabled reasoning, preclinical models, and experimental testing to enhance therapeutic discovery speed and scalability.

Responsibilities

  • Provide scientific leadership for discovery programs, technology platforms, and strategic initiatives integrating experimental biology and computational science.
  • Lead cross-functional teams, create clarity in a rapidly evolving environment, and connect expertise across the organization.
  • Define therapeutic hypotheses based on human biology and translate them into coordinated computational analyses and experiments.
  • Connect human genetics, multi-omics, single-cell and spatial data, clinical observations, and experimental evidence to identify actionable mechanisms.
  • Leverage AI-enabled analytical approaches like machine learning and agentic workflows to synthesize data, identify therapeutic mechanisms, prioritize targets, and design experiments.
  • Partner with computational/data scientists, engineers, preclinical, clinical, and translational scientists.
  • Define and guide program strategy, milestones, experimental prioritization, and risk assessment.
  • Design, direct, analyze, and interpret experimental studies to interrogate target biology and support drug discovery.
  • Identify, evaluate, and implement emerging technologies to scale inflammation research.
  • Recognize scientific, technological, and industry trends and translate them into actionable opportunities.
  • Mentor and provide scientific and technical guidance to colleagues.
  • Foster an inclusive, connected, curious, and high-performing culture.
  • Communicate complex science, uncertainty, and recommendations to various audiences.
  • Build external scientific and technological eminence through collaborations, conference participation, publications, and patents.

Requirements

  • Doctorate degree (PhD, PharmD, or MD) with relevant post-doc and 3 years of computational biology and multi-omics data integration experience.
  • Master's degree with 6 years of computational biology and multi-omics data integration experience.
  • Bachelor's degree with 8 years of computational biology and multi-omics data integration experience.
  • Demonstrated ability to work independently with considerable latitude.
  • Ability to establish objectives, integrate activities across projects, and make high-quality decisions.
  • Demonstrated excellence in project leadership and balancing scientific rigor, strategic focus, urgency, adaptability, and operational execution.
  • Experience leading cross-functional scientific teams or serving as a lead scientist/technological resource.
  • Broad knowledge of experimental and computational biology, connecting adjacent innovation and technology areas.
  • Ability to integrate both experimental and computational approaches.
  • Track record of solving complex scientific problems through ingenuity, creativity, rigorous experimentation, quantitative reasoning, and integration of diverse evidence.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Commitment to coaching and mentoring others, collegial behavior, and knowledge sharing.
  • Deep expertise in inflammation, immunology, tissue biology, human disease biology, computational biology, preclinical models, systems biology, imaging, bioengineering, or a closely related field.
  • Experience using AI-enabled tools, agentic workflows, advanced analytics, quantitative modeling, or multimodal data integration.
  • Strong record of designing or applying human-relevant experimental systems.
  • Ability to identify where technology can create a step change in biological understanding and convert concepts into robust, reproducible, and scalable research capabilities.
  • Experience advancing drug discovery programs and connecting mechanisms to target selection, modality, biomarkers, translational strategy, clinical differentiation, and portfolio value.
