What is special about this role?
The utilization of genomics across life sciences from drug discovery to clinical development through commercialization continues to expand as new precision medicine therapies treating hereditary diseases continue to expand. Helix is on the forefront of innovation as our unique health system partnerships and proprietary clinico-genomic data assets open up new use cases never before imagined. As the Sr. Director, New Product Development you will be responsible for sourcing and identifying new use cases for Helix assets, leverage product design and experimentation methodologies to rapidly assess market fit and potential, attractiveness of value generated, and feasibility and scalability of productizing Helix capabilities for the potential use cases. To do this you'll work collaboratively across a cross-functional team to rapidly research, innovate, test and advance product concepts and feasibility. In addition in some cases you may source and secure a biopharma partner deal to pilot the helix solution and secure learnings prior to Helix investing in a full product launch. As product concepts are successfully vetted, this role will work closely with Marketing and Business Development where the product concept will be launched into the market adding another offering to the Helix product offering menu.
The successful candidate is highly agile and creative, has strong scientific expertise on hereditary diseases and genetics and is unusually adept at understanding how biopharmaceutical organizations and functions work from drug discovery, clinical development, commercial development, medical, safety, epidemiology, HEOR, market access and marketing. You bring strong strategic thinking and are a natural complex problem solver, while also an aptitude to translate ideas into concrete operations that bring forward the desired value proposition. You develop strong, trusting relationships across functions and with existing Helix partners and customers, and demonstrate systems thinking to bring all functions and parties along the journey until a product concept is fully vetted. You have a proven record of product innovation, design, testing and productizing ideas.
The candidate is also a strong people manager with demonstrated ability to train and grow talent, and will be responsible for managing our junior resources which flex across the commercial organization.
If you thrive in a fast-paced environment, enjoy the strategic nature of identifying opportunities to apply emerging science, are comfortable delivering against metrics, have a deep passion for both the science and the customer experience, and love creating high-value products with deep impact on patients, this is the role for you.
