About Ossium
Ossium’s mission is to improve the health, vitality, and longevity of human beings through bioengineering.

At Ossium, we empower our employees, maintain the highest standards of operational excellence, and are a force for good.
About the Job
We're hiring a Medical Science Liaison to be the bridge between our cutting-edge cryopreserved deceased donor bone marrow technology and the hematology/oncology and transplant medicine community. As the scientific voice of Ossium, you’ll build relationships with key opinion leaders, translate complex science into compelling clinical narratives, and help physicians and transplant care teams understand how our products transform patient outcomes.
This isn't a traditional pharma MSL role. You'll be working with breakthrough cell therapy technology at an early-stage company, which means real autonomy, meaningful scientific impact, and a direct line to clinical development decisions. This role will be instrumental in building scientific community awareness and supporting our clinical development efforts in the hematology/oncology and transplant medicine space.

- Experience engaging academic medical centers or complex hospital systems

- Experience working with academic medical centers or complex hospital systems
- Willingness to travel up to 70% (mostly regional, some national conferences)

In your first six months, some projects you’ll work on include:
