Why work with us

Shijie VP, Data Sciences – Biostatistics

As the VP of Data Sciences, the role of my team and of myself is to advance Karyopharm drug discovery and development programs by utilizing our knowledge in data. Throughout my four years at the company, I have been able to work on all of our clinical studies and regulatory submissions. These types of opportunities to help patients with unmet medical needs makes me realize that my work is so meaningful and so important.

Monique Associate Director Field Excellence

I’ve always been inspired by work that makes a significant impact in patients’ lives, and Karyopharm provided that opportunity. Right away it was clear to me that the company’s commitment to patients and dedication to its ICARE values would continue to motivate me. Our ICARE values are not just words – they are ingrained into our daily work, help me to foster a culture that values everyone’s input, drive exceptional results, and consistently exceed expectations. Working at Karyopharm is fulfilling; it means being part of a passionate, hardworking team striving to bring much-needed cancer treatments to those waiting.

Stephanie Senior Executive Assistant, R&D

I was excited to join a company with a mission to help patients, and liked the small business feel combined with a rapidly growing vision for the future. Cancer touches all of our lives, and I am inspired daily to work towards a treatment for all kinds of cancer at every stage. I am proud to be working for a company that is doing this work in the world.

Jenna Senior Oncology/Hematology Sales Specialist

I’ve been with Karyopharm since our first commercial launch. The opportunity to join at that time was a true trifecta – to launch a new company, a new medication, and an entirely new class of medicine. Since 2019, I have enjoyed being the local contact and face of Karyopharm/XPOVIO for a wide range of HCPs who would like to learn more about XPOVIO. Along with all my Hematology Oncology Specialist (HOS) colleagues, I strive to provide education and support that allows appropriate patients to have the best outcome on XPOVIO. Every day I have the unique opportunity to provide hope to patients with cancer. 
I feel very fortunate to be able to spread that message to HCPs who directly impact patients’ lives.

Lisa Senior Manager, GMSA Operations

What drives me every day is being part of a company that’s at the forefront of finding, creating, and bringing new medicines to the world, all while putting the patient right at the heart of our mission. 
In my work in congress planning, I have the privilege of working alongside like-minded colleagues across the company who are dedicated to our mission. Together we innovate and produce creative solutions to disseminate our data at scientific meetings and congresses – all to help get our story out to the healthcare community, and ultimately, patients. It’s an exciting time to be a part of the journey here.
