The Opportunity
- Understand Users & Workflows: Work directly with Clinical Scientists, Biostatisticians, Medical Writers, and other study team members to understand how clinical studies are designed today, where users struggle, and where technology can meaningfully improve their experience.
- Shape Product Features: Partner with Product Managers, UX designers, engineers, and scientific experts to turn user problems and opportunities into product concepts, workflows, features, and incremental releases.
- Drive Product Discovery: Participate in user interviews, discovery workshops, design sessions, prototyping, and experimentation to understand the problem before jumping to a solution.
- Translate Problems into Buildable Products: Break complex clinical workflows into clear product capabilities, user journeys, stories, and acceptance criteria that engineering teams can act upon—while maintaining focus on the underlying user problem and intended outcome.
- Prioritize for Value: Help evaluate competing requests and opportunities based on user value, business impact, technical complexity, dependencies, and product strategy rather than treating every request as a requirement.
- Partner with Engineering: Work closely with engineers and architects throughout development, understanding technical constraints and tradeoffs and helping the team find pragmatic solutions without losing sight of the user experience.
