About The Position

The Regional Product Manager – VELYS Enabling Technologies is responsible for defining and driving the regional product and commercialization strategy for the VELYS Digital Surgery and enabling technology platform. This role owns the regional VELYS platform strategy, including go-to-market approach, pricing and commercial models for capital and enabling technologies, launch planning, and sales enablement to accelerate adoption and utilization across markets. As a key regional integrator, the role partners closely with cross-functional teams—including Commercial, Regulatory Affairs, Professional Education, Marketing, Finance, Launch Excellence, and Service—to build integrated NPI and commercialization plans and ensure disciplined execution. This position plays a critical role in driving the adoption of complex, workflow-based digital, robotic and capital technologies, directly impacting growth, differentiation, and customer value realization for DePuy Synthes. Johnson & Johnson announced plans to separate our Orthopaedics business to establish a standalone orthopaedics company, operating as DePuy Synthes. The process of the planned separation is anticipated to be completed within 18 to 24 months, subject to legal requirements, including consultation with works councils and other employee representative bodies, as may be required, regulatory approvals and other customary conditions and approvals. Should you accept this position, it is anticipated that, following conclusion of the transaction, you would be an employee of DePuy Synthes and your employment would be governed by DePuy Synthes employment processes, programs, policies, and benefit plans. In that case, details of any planned changes would be provided to you by DePuy Synthes at an appropriate time and subject to any necessary consultation processes.
