Jeanloz attended Collège Calvin, where he pursued Greek and Latin classical studies, graduating with a bachelor's of science in 1936. Five years later, Jeanloz completed a diploma in chemical engineering from the University of Geneva, specializing in organic chemistry and biochemistry. In 1943, Jeanloz obtained a D.Sc under the direction of Kurt Heinrich Meyer. Jeanloz worked for Tadeusz Reichstein from 1944 to 1946, when he moved his postdoctoral research overseas, with a year each at the University of Montreal in Canada and National Institutes of Health in the United States.

Harvard Medical School appointed Jeanloz a professor of biological chemistry and molecular pharmacology in 1969, and granted him emeritus status in 1988. He remained an adviser and tutor at Harvard College until 2007. Over the course of his career, Jeanloz was honored with the Claude S. Hudson Award by the American Chemical Society, a Humboldt Research Award, and a Guggenheim fellowship. He died of pneumonia on 28 September 2007, while on vacation in Cagnes-sur-Mer, France.
