Help redefine what’s possible in rare disease in the US
At Alexion, AstraZeneca Rare Disease, we are driven by a mission to change what it means to live with a rare disease. For individuals who want their work to matter, this is an opportunity to bring innovation to communities with profound unmet need and help expand access to life-changing medicines.
With a legacy of scientific firsts, deep partnership with patients and caregivers, and the global strength of AstraZeneca, Alexion offers the chance to be part of something bigger: helping deliver the next wave of rare disease innovation to the patients, providers and health systems who need it most.
Our US Rare Disease Area Groups Include:

Make a difference where the need is greatest
Rare disease is one of the most unique areas in healthcare. Of the 10,000 known rare diseases, 90% still do not have an approved treatment. Patients and families often face long diagnostic journeys, limited awareness, and significant barriers to care.
That is why our mission matters.
At Alexion, we listen to and partner with the rare disease community to help improve outcomes for more patients in need. That means you’ll have the opportunity to work in an environment where every conversation has purpose and where your role can support awareness, education, and access in areas of high unmet need.
Join a company built on pioneering science
Alexion has more than 30 years of rare disease leadership and more than 20 years of real-world evidence. Today, that legacy includes 6 US approved medicines across 7 rare diseases, with an ambition to deliver five new medicines globally by 2030.
We are known for pursuing bold science in areas where progress has been limited, including a history of leadership in complement biology and a pipeline that spans multiple therapeutic areas such as hematology, nephrology, neurology, bone metabolism, endocrinology, and rare tumors.
