Noetik is an AI-native biotechnology company that applies self-supervised machine learning to large-scale human multimodal spatial omics datasets with the aim of developing precision cancer therapies. Backed by DCVC (Data Collective).
About the role
Noetik is hiring a Director of Business Development to build and own the top of the commercial funnel. This is a new-revenue role: you will develop pipeline strategy for Noetik’s AI oncology models, scout and qualify partnership opportunities globally, and carry relationships from a first informal conversation through to structured, executable deals with pharma and biotech.
What they're looking for
- Identify and build the case for new revenue streams beyond the current partnership model — new indications, new buyer profiles, and new commercial constructs
- Build and maintain the target account map: which pharma and biotech organizations need Noetik’s models, why, when, and through which internal sponsor
- Own top-of-funnel generation for asset in-licensing end to end: source, scout, and assess partnership opportunities globally across large pharma, mid-cap biopharma, and clinical-stage biotech
- Maintain a systematic, strategic approach to coverage rather than opportunistic outreach: segmented targeting, deliberate sequencing, and disciplined qualification criteria
- Translate complex model capabilities into concrete partner problems solved: target discovery, patient stratification, response prediction, indication selection, and clinical asset positioning
- Support deal shaping and structuring in partnership with the Chief Business Officer and leadership, including commercial framing, term development, and negotiation preparation
