An Employee Experience That Goes Beyond

Achieving bold goals calls for extraordinary heart. At Vaxcyte, our shared “kindness-first” mindset is the secret sauce that allows us to scale beyond what seems possible. Whether it’s creating some of the most complex biologics ever made or taking on long established standards of care with our lead vaccine candidate, VAX-24, a 24-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine, our team tackles the toughest challenges by being both fearless and kind. We welcome with confidence and humility unforeseen challenges, knowing we have the resources, expertise and unrelenting will to deliver.

Living Our Values Together

At Vaxcyte, what we do is every bit as important as how we do it. Our work together is guided by four enduring core values that inform how we show up, treat each other, approach our work and set standards for the outcomes we deliver. Watch the following video to see our values in action.

The Vaxcyte Credo: We Go Beyond to Protect Humankind

We define success in human terms, protecting every child born and every adult at risk from bacterial infectious diseases across the globe.

We push beyond what seems possible, unbounded by the constraints of convention, the limits of technology, or the magnitude of our challenge.

We re-engineer complexity, with the chemistry to create precisely targeted vaccines intended to deliver enhanced immunological benefits.

We embrace the unknown, deftly navigating our development journey with the care, passion, courage, and commitment to excellence to defy the odds.

We are Vaxcyte, creating the most complex biologics ever made with the grit and grace to go the distance.
