Job description

Prime Medicine is a leading biotechnology company dedicated to creating and delivering the next generation of gene editing therapies to patients. The Company is leveraging its proprietary Prime Editing platform, a versatile, precise and efficient gene editing technology, to develop a new class of differentiated, one-time, potentially curative genetic therapies. Designed to make only the right edit at the right position within a gene while minimizing unwanted DNA modifications, Prime Editors have the potential to repair almost all types of genetic mutations and work in many different tissues, organs and cell types. Prime Medicine is currently progressing a diversified portfolio of investigational therapeutic programs organized around our core areas of focus: hematology, immunology & oncology, liver and lung. Across each core area, Prime Medicine is focused initially on a set of high value programs, each targeting a disease with well-understood biology and a clearly defined clinical development and regulatory path, and each expected to provide the foundation for expansion into additional opportunities.

Position Overview

Prime Medicine is seeking an experienced Associate Director of Clinical Data Management to lead clinical data strategy and execution across gene editing programs from first-in-human studies through regulatory submission. This role will oversee all internal and external data management activities supporting INDs, CTAs, BLAs, and global regulatory filings. The ideal candidate has experience in rare disease clinical trials, vendor oversight, and complex biologic or gene therapy programs, and is comfortable operating in a fast-paced environment. This individual will ensure clinical data integrity, regulatory readiness, and high-quality execution across the development portfolio. This role reports to the Senior Director, Clinical Operations.

Gene Therapy & Rare Disease Expertise

• Oversee integration of complex data streams including:
• Genomic and sequencing data
• Biomarker and translational endpoints
• Immunogenicity and PK/PD
• Long‑term follow‑up safety data
• Support dose‑escalation studies with rapid data review cycles and SRC/DMC readiness.
• Tailor data processes to rare disease trial realities (small populations, adaptive designs, multi‑cohort studies).

Systems & Infrastructure

• Contribute to scalable data infrastructure and identification of key efficiencies between programs.
• Support implementation and optimization of EDC, ePRO, IRT, and data visualization systems.
• Ensure integration between clinical data, laboratory systems, and sample tracking systems.

Cross‑Functional Collaboration
