Your goal is to build scalable, scientific analytics products that are seamlessly embedded into the workflows of our Medical and Commercial teams to ensure every solution drives a tangible, validated impact on patient and business outcomes.

* Lead the unified squad consisting of Business product leader (you), Digital Tech, and Business Activation.

* Simplify complex AI concepts into strategic narratives for C-suite/Senior Leadership. You must justify the "spend" by demonstrating the

* Hands-on experience with modern Data Warehouses (Snowflake/Databricks)
