- End-to-end lifecycle from customer discovery to MVP prototyping
- GxP, data privacy, and SaMD validation compliance standards
- Product telemetry and reliability benchmarks for platform services
Who it’s for
A fit if you…
- ✓7+ years of experience building enterprise platforms or SaaS in healthcare
- ✓Deep domain knowledge in life sciences, biotech, or clinical research
- ✓Ability to navigate technical, scientific, and executive stakeholders
- ✓Experience with MLOps, digital pathology, or multi-omics data
Not for you if…
- ✗You prefer non-regulated environments (requires GxP/SaMD compliance)
- ✗You prefer pure product work without heavy technical/scientific constraints
- ✗You prefer a simple feature roadmap over complex infrastructure and platform thinking
Reading between the lines
- The mention of 'bridging' engineering, clinical, and regulatory teams suggests you will act as a primary translator between very different departments.
- Requirement for 'multi-year strategy' and 'architecting standards' implies high autonomy in defining the long-term technical direction.
