AbbVie's Digital Science Team is an innovative group that combines medical knowledge, digital technologies, regulatory, and data science expertise to develop and validate digital health solutions. These solutions are designed to measure disease aspects objectively, detect treatment benefits, and enhance our portfolio's value. As part of this team, you'll help shape the future of medicine with Digital Health solutions. The Manager of Digital Science is a Digital Health Technology (DHT) expert, playing a strategic leadership role within the team and interacting with stakeholders. In this role, you will lead the search and evaluation of various DHT categories and manage DHT vendors to support drug development implementations, thus expediting medicines to market and improving care standards. Additionally, you will explore opportunities to apply AI/ML to automate DHT search and evaluation processes, enhancing efficiency and outcomes.

  • Collaborate closely with Digital Health Strategists and other R&D stakeholders to ensure the best-in-class and fit-for-purpose DHT is identified and evaluated with rigor to meet the scientific, regulatory, operational, quality, and strategic requirements.
  • Lead multiple categories of DHT search & evaluation (S&E) and deliver high quality DHT S&E results to strategists and R&D stakeholders in a timely manner.
  • Provide DHT subject expertise input in various internal meetings when needed.
  • Use appropriate software, AI tools to manage DHT website, catalog and vendors relationships.
  • Lead and manage planning and establish strategic partnerships when necessary.
  • Stay abreast of new and evolving regulations, guidelines and policies related to digital health and clinical development.
  • May participate in external collaborations and help influence external stakeholders, such as regulatory agencies, HTAs, advocacy groups, consortia, industry trade organizations, and investigators.
  • Over time, establish internal and external presence and thought leadership in the field of DHT S&E, and maintain healthy relationships with various players within broader digital health ecosystem, including peers, vendors, and global agencies, and participate in peer-review journal publications and presentations at global meetings and conferences.
  • Master or PhD in technology, engineering, data science, healthcare, medical & regulatory science or a related field with relevant experience in pharma, academia, healthcare and/or medical device industries; MBA or consulting experience a plus.
  • MS with 5-6 years or PhD with 2 years.
  • Good understanding of various sensors and imaging tools used in the medical and consumer devices, i.e. accelerometer, gyroscope, temperature, pressure, force, touch, proximity, microphone, radiofrequency, 2/3D optical imaging, cameras, lidar, EEG, MRI, fMRI, PET, etc.
  • Good understanding of digital health technology verification and validation processes, performance metrics, and their application to understanding human function, health, and disease state/progression.
  • Good understanding of the drug development process and ICH GCP regulations.
  • Strong ability to write/review evidence, manuscripts, and regulatory documents, and effective understanding and interpretation of data and results as well as synthesizing reports and presentations for different audiences.
  • Strong coding skills (Python, R, or similar) and the ability to use software applications (e.g. Power BI, smartsheet), AI tools to effectively manage multiple S&E projects simultaneously.
  • Strong ability in managing and maintaining DHT material, catalog, and external vendors relationships.
  • Strong ability to collaborate and influence across functions in a highly matrixed organization.
  • Self-motivated, organized, attention to detail, collaborative, excellent time-management, can-do attitude, open-minded.
  • Expert communication in verbal, written, and presentation skills.
