Job Description

Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: ARWR) is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company that develops medicines to treat intractable diseases by silencing the genes that cause them. Using a broad portfolio of RNA chemistries and delivery methods, Arrowhead therapies trigger RNA interference to induce rapid, deep, and durable gene knockdown. RNA interference (RNAi) inhibits specific gene expression, affecting protein production. Arrowhead's RNAi therapeutics leverage this natural gene-silencing pathway.

Arrowhead focuses on developing innovative drugs for genetically based diseases, often characterized by overproduction of proteins involved in disease. Our versatile RNAi technologies enable us to address conditions across various therapeutic areas, including targets not accessible by small molecules or biologics. We are leading efforts to bring RNAi therapies beyond liver diseases, with clinical pipelines targeting liver and lung diseases, and a promising pipeline of preclinical candidates.

Our headquarters are in Pasadena, CA, with research teams in Madison, WI, and San Diego, CA, and a manufacturing facility in Verona, WI. Our team is composed of nimble, science-driven innovators committed to bringing new therapies to patients in need.
