  • Translate complex stakeholder requirements (from both economic buyers and end users) into elegant product solutions that serve multiple constituencies and balance speed and scale

User Research & Experience

  • Coordinate and conduct UX research initiatives both independently and in partnership with UX Research professionals

  • Conduct user interviews, usability testing, and workflow analysis on an ad-hoc basis to help rapidly validate assumptions and form perspectives

  • Distinguish between what users say they want, what they actually need, and what will drive purchasing decisions, recurring revenue, and continual value delivery

  • Synthesize research findings into actionable roadmap inputs, ensuring user insights directly influence product priorities and feature decisions

Design & Rapid Prototyping

  • Create rapid prototypes using AI-powered design tools to quickly validate concepts and iterate on solutions. Familiarity with code is a plus!

  • Communicate product updates, roadmap changes, and strategic decisions to diverse audiences

  • Support commercial teams with product expertise during customer engagements

Essential Skills/Experience:
- 3-5 years of product management experience in B2B or B2C software, preferably in regulated industries.
- Experience delivering product outcomes for complex financial modelling products.

- Experience with enterprise software design patterns and understanding of enterprise UX constraints.
- Understanding of AI/ML concepts, particularly large language models and their applications.
- Knowledge of clinical trial protocols, ICH-GCP guidelines, or regulatory requirements (FDA, EMA).

In-person working gives us the platform we need to connect, work at pace and challenge perceptions. That's why we work, on average, a minimum of three days per week from the office.
