Senior Communications Manager, Science Technology
Chan Zuckerberg Initiative Redwood City, Ca
The Team CZI supports the science and technology that will make it possible to help scientists cure, prevent, or manage all diseases by the end of this century. While this may seem like an audacious goal, in the last 100 years, biomedical science has made tremendous strides in understanding biological systems, advancing human health, and treating disease.  Achieving our mission will only be possible if scientists are able to better understand human biology. To that end, we have identified four grand challenges that will unlock the mysteries of the cell and how cells interact within systems — paving the way for new discoveries that will change medicine in the decades that follow: Building an AI-based virtual cell model to predict and understand cellular behavior Developing state-of-the-art imaging systems to observe living cells in action Instrumenting tissues to better understand inflammation, a key driver of many diseases Engineering and harnessing the immune system for early detection, prevention, and treatment of disease CZI’s   work in science   includes grantmaking programs, open-source software development, and close collaboration with the Chan Zuckerberg Biohub Network. The CZ Biohub Network includes the San Francisco, Chicago, and New York Biohubs as well as the Chan Zuckerberg Imaging Institute.

You will also support the overall Brand and Communications team and our colleagues across Science with positioning and storytelling for CZI as an established leader in AI-driven biological research. Artificial intelligence has enormous potential to accelerate the pace of scientific discovery. CZI is leveraging AI to accelerate scientific research, including by building virtual cell models to help scientists explore the molecular underpinnings of human health and disease. These models will have broad applications for biomedical research, disease diagnosis, and therapeutic development.  The Senior Communications Manager, Science Technology role at CZI is an opportunity for an experienced communications professional to lead CZI’s rapidly growing science technology communications – from topics such as AI to open source software to hardware – for a fast-paced and innovative philanthropic organization on the cutting edge of technology development for biomedicine. As part of the Brand and Communications team, you will help build trust, credibility, and engagement with the scientific community to champion and contribute to our science mission.

You thoughtfully vet the projects that you pursue, evaluating the risks, benefits, costs, and goals to make sure that you are making strategic choices that are in the best interest of THL.  Organization and long-term planning: Managing a large number of projects—many of which may have long-term strategies and implications for your own work—requires exemplary organizational skills, including effective cross-departmental project management skills, and  daily use of Google Drive, online communication tools like Slack, spreadsheets, and project management software.  Self-motivation: This position requires the ability to set and manage your own schedule and to-do lists and carry them out in a timely, efficient manner to achieve as much as possible for animals in the limited amount of time that you have each day.
