let's recode your impact
careers
We're recoders. Are you?
As a gene therapy company, the word recode sums up everything bluebird bio stands for. Every day we work to change some of the building blocks of modern life: miscoded genes, how therapeutic drugs work, even a healthcare system that isn’t always ready for new forms of care.
If you like the idea of pecking away at some of the world’s most meaningful challenges, rubbing wings with talented, motivated, fun-loving people, and bird jokes (lots of bird jokes), you’ll love it in the nest. This is a place where every role has meaning, every team member is respected, and every day is a chance to fly higher.
Oncology is leaving the nest
Our severe genetic disease and oncology teams are separating this fall to help us do an even better job delivering transformative outcomes for patients. All jobs related to genetic diseases will remain with bluebird bio, while those in oncology will move to the new company, 2Seventy. Want to know more?
Everybirdie matters here
We’ve recoded the nine-to-five because we want the best people to come here. And stay here. We think you can’t have a bluebird day if you don’t have meaningful work surrounded by people you respect and enjoy and a culture that actively supports you. These are our values, and they're non-negotiable.
You may think of us as a science company, but we’re so much more. And it takes all types of birds to help us deliver meaningful results for patients. If you’ve got one of these skills and are passionate about life – and meeting people who are different from you – we’d like to meet.

What’s it like to work here? Pretty cool, actually
More than benefits or vacation time, fulfillment at work is the best indicator of happiness in your job. We’ve worked hard to create the right environment based on real, anonymous input from everyone in the nest. Based on internal surveys, here’s what our birds value about bluebird:
