Iovance Biotherapeutics aims to be the global leader in innovating, developing and delivering tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) therapy for people with cancer. We are pioneering a transformational approach to treating cancer by harnessing the ability of the human immune system to recognize and attack diverse cancer cells in each patient. The Iovance TIL platform has demonstrated promising clinical data across multiple solid tumors. We are committed to continuous innovation in cell therapy, including gene-edited cell therapy, which may be a promising option for patients with cancer.

Overview

Iovance Biotherapeutics is a commercial-stage biotech company pioneering individualized cell therapies for cancer. As we grow, we’re exploring how AI and emerging technologies can enhance the way we work across every part of the organization—and we need sharp, resourceful people to help us figure out where the biggest opportunities are.

This is a 12-week, remote internship—and it is not a typical intern experience. You will have a mandate to engage with teams across the entire company: Manufacturing, Quality, Clinical Operations, Regulatory, Commercial, Finance, and beyond. Your job is to get into the details of how people actually work, document what you find, and use AI tools to identify where technology can make a meaningful difference. You will own your workstreams, manage your own priorities, and produce deliverables that directly inform senior leadership decisions.

This role is built for someone who gets energy from solving problems, doesn’t shy away from high-volume, detail-intensive work, and already uses AI in their daily life. You’ll gain enterprise-wide visibility into how a biotech company operates, work directly with executive leadership, and leave with experience that most people don’t get until years into their career.

Responsibilities:

• Engage directly with team members and leaders across every major business function to understand how work gets done today—what’s working, what’s not, and where the friction is.
• Document end-to-end business processes with rigor and consistency, building a structured repository that becomes a lasting organizational asset.
• Build a comprehensive use case catalogue that captures, categorizes, and prioritizes opportunities where AI and automation can drive real operational improvement.
• Apply AI tools and large language models to analyze documented workflows, surface patterns, and develop preliminary solution concepts for high-priority opportunities.
• Translate complex findings into clear, well-organized deliverables—written summaries, process maps, and recommendation briefs—for both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Work directly with the Executive Director, COC/COI Systems and cross-functional partners to pressure-test assumptions, refine priorities, and align recommendations with organizational goals.
• Stay sharp on the evolving AI landscape and bring informed perspectives on how new capabilities could apply to the problems you’re seeing.

Education :

• Currently pursuing or recently completed a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Business, Strategy, Operations, Economics, Communications, Information Systems, or a related field.
• You already use AI tools regularly—not because someone told you to, but because you’ve found they make you better at what you do.
• You have a working understanding of the current AI landscape: large language models, automation platforms, and where the technology is headed.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills. You can take something complex and make it clear without losing the nuance.
• You’re comfortable walking into a room (or a Zoom) with senior leaders you’ve never met and asking smart questions.
• Analytical and organized. You can take a large volume of qualitative and quantitative information and build structure where there wasn’t any.
• Self-directed. You manage your time well, you don’t need to be chased, and you deliver what you say you will.
• Interest in biotechnology or life sciences is a plus, but not required.
