• “We digitize everywhere possible using the power of code to maximize our impact on patients.” As part of a digitally native biotech company, your work will intersect with Moderna’s technology-driven approach to data, documentation, and submission generation—allowing you to push regulatory science into the future while unlocking the potential of Generative AI tools in the process.
