Role Summary 

Lexeo is at an inflection point where AI and advanced analytics can materially accelerate decision-making across discovery, development, and operational execution. This Sr. Director will set direction and deliver applied AI/ML solutions across internal workflows and externally facing outputs, ranging from R&D insights to partner-ready analyses, while partnering closely with scientific teams and, when needed, external vendors/partners to solve real problems. This role is intentionally hands-on and outcome-driven: a leader who can build, validate, and operationalize models using real-world biopharma data to raise the signal-to-noise ratio in small or unstructured datasets (including synthetic control arm approaches where appropriate).
