In this role, you will shape how we compete, helping define product strategy, differentiation, and indication expansion across multiple programs over time. You will serve as the single accountable leader for competitive positioning, Target Product Profile (TPP) development and indication expansion frameworks, partnering closely with Asset Entrepreneurs / Program Leadership, Clinical Development, Clinical Operations, Regulatory, and other cross functional leaders. You will operate as a strategic thought partner and copilot to program leadership, translating complex scientific, clinical, regulatory, and commercial inputs into sharper strategy and faster, higher-quality decisions.

Requirements

7+ years in biopharmaceuticals, biotech, or healthcare consulting, including at least 4-5 years in competitive intelligence, portfolio strategy, commercial strategy, or equity research.
Demonstrated ownership of CI and/or NPP for an asset in clinical development
Experience building, evolving, and operationalizing Target Product Profiles
Strong scientific acumen paired with commercial judgment
Experience partnering with Clinical Development and Clinical Operations teams
Exceptional ability to translate complex data into structured, executive-level narratives
Bias toward ownership, clarity, and decision velocity in ambiguous environments
Demonstrated ability to synthesize information across disciplines and propose clear, data-driven strategic options
Comfortable moving fluidly between strategic vision and tactical execution and equally capable of shaping long-term product positioning and rolling up your sleeves to build the framework that gets us there
Proven ability to leverage AI and digital tools effectively, using them to organize complexity, analyze competitive landscapes, and sharpen decision-making not as a novelty, but as a multiplier of human insight
