What's happening at Entrada Therapeutics? Entrada is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company aiming to transform the lives of patients by establishing a new class of medicines that engage intracellular targets that have long been considered inaccessible.
Our Endosomal Escape Vehicle (EEV™)-therapeutics are designed to enable the efficient intracellular delivery of a wide range of therapeutics into a variety of organs and tissues, resulting in an improved therapeutic index. Through this proprietary, versatile and modular approach, Entrada is advancing a robust development portfolio of RNA- and protein-based programs for the potential treatment of neuromuscular and ocular diseases, among others.
Our lead oligonucleotide programs are in development for the potential treatment of people living with Duchenne who are exon 44, 45, 50 and 51 skipping amenable. Entrada has partnered to develop a clinical-stage program, VX-670, for myotonic dystrophy type 1.
We are a tight-knit team of experts and leaders in both therapeutic development and rare diseases and are excited to grow and attract colleagues who are ready to join a high-energy, dedicated team that likes to get things done and dramatically improve the lives of patients and their families.
You are a solutions-oriented IT professional who thrives in a fast-paced, science-driven environment. You’re equally comfortable supporting scientists in the lab and business users at their desks. You understand the importance of uptime, data integrity, and compliance in a regulated life sciences setting.
You take the initiative, solve problems independently, and communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical users. You bring a strong service mindset, a sense of urgency, and a commitment to operational excellence. Whether you’re troubleshooting a GxP lab instrument PC or helping a new hire get set up on Day 1, you consistently deliver high-quality support with professional and care.
