This is a content technology leadership role for someone who lives at the intersection of content, technology, and creative execution. As the Global Content Studio Technology Product Lead, you will own the authoring platforms and production execution that power Medical Affairs content delivery at scale - turning strategic content briefs into finished multi-format deliverables (e.g., HTML format conversions needed for VAE/SFMC email initiatives, web content, interactive slide decks/infographics, and other digital experiences. You will build and operate the content production engine from the ground up - standing up the team, partnering with design agencies, and embedding AI tools directly into the production workflow to transform how Medical Affairs content is created, adapted, and delivered globally. Reporting to the Sr. Director of Global Content Strategy Technology Capability Lead, and working in close partnership with the Medical Affairs (e.g., Global Medical Affairs, US Medical Affairs, Affiliate Medical Affairs) and Medical Content Strategy & Enablement (MCS)/Insights, Data, & Analytics (IDA) teams in GMSO, you will own the content authoring platforms and the production operations that turn strategic content briefs into finished, compliant, multi format deliverables. Your team is a service to the broader global Medical Affairs organization, including Rest of World (ROW): when a therapeutic area team needs an interactive HTML piece, a localized email campaign, or a set of derivative assets adapted from a global master, your team delivers it. This role also carries a significant future state opportunity. You will design and build the production capability that enables Medical Affairs to scale content derivatives from global to local and local to local - translating the content strategy set by Medical Affairs into repeatable, high quality production workflows. AI is central to this vision. You will evaluate, implement, and operationalize AI powered content authoring tools that accelerate production, reduce manual effort, and enable your team to do more with every cycle. The ideal candidate will have vendor oversight experience and has led medical affairs content development/production including digital content operations in pharma or a regulated industry, brings familiarity with modular content, HTML content authoring, modern AI-enabled content authoring tools, digital omnichannel, and digital content standards, and knows how to own a production service end to end with discipline, quality standards, and a relentless focus on user outcomes and throughput.
