Biotherapeutics and Genetic Medicine (BGM), a part of Discovery Research within AbbVies R&D, is a global organization that is responsible for discovering and optimizing drug candidate molecules for biotherapeutic modalities (monoclonal antibodies, multispecifics, proteins, conjugates, etc.) and genetic medicines (AAV, LNPs, siRNA etc.) for all therapeutic areas across discovery.

The Principal Data Architect is a visionary leader in the development and success of our cloud-native data platform, which supports the development and integration of predictive and generative machine learning solutions in drug discovery scientist workflows. This role requires a strong ability to see both the big picture and the details, and to work cross-functionally with both wet lab scientists, ML engineers, software engineers, data engineers, and data infrastructure engineers, among others.

This position reports to the Head of AI/ML in Biotherapeutics and Genetic Medicine (BGM) and will serve as a trusted advisor to senior leadership. This role is pivotal in driving our organization towards becoming a leader in the application of artificial intelligence, ensuring that AI and ML initiatives are built on a robust, resilient, and scalable data foundation that grows with the organization.

• Production programming expertise in SQL, python, or Java.
• Experience building cloud data infrastructure solutions using AWS, Azure, or GCP.
• Familiar with both wet and dry lab scientific principles and processes, able to foresee and prevent data platform-originating failure modes.
• Experience with cross-functional team leadership, and track record of collaboration excellence.
• Previous experience in the pharmaceutical or biotechnology sectors.
• Experience managing both team member delivery and career development.
• Exceptional interpersonal and communication skills, and strong evidence of ability to build stakeholder alignment.
