Role Overview This is a unique, high autonomy role designed for someone who thrives as a regional technology leader operating at the intersection of global strategy and local execution. As the International Technology Product Lead, you will serve as the single point of contact between Medical Affairs Technology (MAT) and the International Medical Affairs region - ensuring that the best tools, technology, and processes developed globally deliver value across Asia (China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan) and the Intercontinental region (Latin America, Middle East, Africa, and emerging markets). Reporting to the Executive Director of Medical Affairs Technology, you will operate as a solo leader based in APAC, partnering closely with global Technology Capability Leads and Technology Product Leads across content, field and digital, and AI to translate global platform decisions into region specific deployments. You will coordinate with regional implementation partners, navigate local regulatory and compliance requirements, and advocate for international needs within the global technology roadmap. You operate in close alignment with global capability leads who own platform strategy. Your value is in bridging the gap between what global builds and what the region needs - ensuring localization, configuration, training, and adoption happen with speed and quality. You are the voice of the International region within MAT and the face of MAT within the International region. Success requires deep pharma experience within the Asia or Intercontinental region, fluency in Chinese (Mandarin) is highly preferred, and the ability to operate independently across time zones, cultures, and organizational boundaries with credibility and influence.
