The Role

The Data Science and Artificial Intelligence (DSAI) Co-op Program is a 6-month experience designed for students studying towards a Bachelor's, Master's, or PhD degree in applying machine learning methods to problems in various business areas, including research, technology development, clinical trial operations, regulatory affairs, medical, and corporate functions. As part of our mission to "Build The Digital Biotech Company" we see a central role for DSAI in accelerating the science and engineering at the heart of our innovative culture. During this co-op you will learn about the biotechnology industry, work under the supervision of an experienced data scientist, and apply your academic knowledge and personal experience to projects focused on aligning business objectives to people's priorities. You will be accountable for delivering clean code and deploying models on our internal computational infrastructure. We are looking for someone who is detail-oriented, deeply curious, exhibits an excellent work ethic, and is eager to expand their existing machine learning skillsets with cutting-edge methods while applying them to impactful scientific questions.

Our program starts on July 17, 2023, and ends on Dec 15, 2023. All applicants must be available to work full-time during this time range and must be willing to relocate to Norwood or Cambridge, MA, depending on the business areas they work in.

About Moderna

In over 10 years since its inception, Moderna has transformed from a research-stage company advancing programs in the field of messenger RNA (mRNA), to an enterprise with a diverse clinical portfolio of vaccines and therapeutics across seven modalities, a broad intellectual property portfolio in areas including mRNA and lipid nanoparticle formulation, and an integrated manufacturing plant that allows for rapid clinical and commercial production at scale. Moderna maintains alliances with a broad range of domestic and overseas government and commercial collaborators, which has allowed for the pursuit of both groundbreaking science and rapid scaling of manufacturing. Most recently, Moderna's capabilities have come together to allow the authorized use and approval of one of the earliest and most effective vaccines against the COVID-19 pandemic.

Moderna's mRNA platform builds on continuous advances in basic and applied mRNA science, delivery technology and manufacturing, and has allowed the development of therapeutics and vaccines for infectious diseases, immuno-oncology, rare diseases, cardiovascular diseases and autoimmune diseases. Moderna has been named a top biopharmaceutical employer by Science for the past seven years. To learn more, visit www.modernatx.com.

Moderna is a smoke-free, alcohol-free and drug-free work environment.
