The role

We are seeking a TMF Quality & Oversight Specialist, reporting to the Senior Manager, Clinical Records. This contractor will support the review, quality oversight, and maintenance of Trial Master File (TMF) documentation in accordance with GCP, ICH E6, regulatory requirements, and 4DMT SOPs. In addition to QC review, the role will help develop and execute Oversight Review processes in Veeva Vault eTMF and support system change requests by representing the Business Process Owner (BPO) perspective. This work is critical to strengthening TMF oversight and ensuring inspection readiness.

4DMT is a leading late-stage biotechnology company advancing durable and disease-targeted therapeutics with potential to transform treatment paradigms and provide unprecedented benefits to patients. The Company’s lead product candidate 4D-150 is designed to be a backbone therapy forming the foundation of treatment of blinding retinal vascular diseases by providing multi-year sustained delivery of anti-VEGF biologics (aflibercept and anti-VEGF-C) with a single intravitreal injection, which substantially reduces the treatment burden associated with current bolus injections. The Company’s lead indication for 4D-150 is wet age-related macular degeneration and the second indication is diabetic macular edema, which are both in Phase 3 development. The Company’s second product candidate is 4D-710, which is the first known genetic medicine to demonstrate successful delivery and expression of the CFTR transgene in the lungs of people with cystic fibrosis after aerosol delivery.

We are taking genetic medicine to new heights and into new disease areas to overcome challenges not addressed by existing medicines. This incredible challenge drives our relentless and talented team. Our people are the essence of our inspiring, innovative and collaborative environment that encourages individual contributions and provides opportunities for career development. We seek the best in the industry who identify with our mission and our bold and innovative results-driven approach. Our Core Values drive the way we work together:

  • Dare to Cure
  • Break Boundaries
  • Beyond Yourself
  • Prepare & Execute Relentlessly

Join us in creating the future of genetic medicine.
