Director, Head of Product Management - AI-Enabled Precision Medicine (Therapeutics & Innovations)

About the role

We are redefining the future of precision medicine by integrating AI with healthcare to create next-generation, precision treatment modalities. Our multidisciplinary team is building products at the intersection of clinical data, multi-omics, and machine learning-unlocking entirely new approaches to drug development and patient care. Within the Therapeutics & Innovations Business Unit, we are developing a new category that bridges diagnostics and therapeutics. Our platform combines deep scientific expertise with proprietary datasets to power AI-enabled solutions that can transform how therapies are discovered, developed, and deployed. We are looking for a product leader who can translate this potential into real, scalable products-owning the strategy, roadmap, and execution to bring these innovations to market. We are seeking a Director / Head of Product Management to lead product strategy and execution for our AI-enabled therapeutics platform. This is a highly cross-functional leadership role at the center of science, engineering, clinical development, and commercial strategy. You will define what we build, why it matters, and how it creates value-for biopharma partners, clinicians, and ultimately patients. You will own the product lifecycle end-to-end: from concept and validation through development, launch, and iteration. This role requires a rare blend of scientific fluency, product rigor, and commercial instinct . You will work closely with R&D, AI, medical, business development, and marketing to ensure our products are scientifically credible, operationally feasible, and commercially compelling.
