What You’Ll Do

Strategy roadmap: Own strategy roadmap for Drug Occupational Health testing services, grounding decisions in customer discovery, GTM input, and data analysis.

Implementation: Write clear specs and PRDs independently, and lead ops reviews that keep the team focused on the right metrics.

Make implementation trade-off decisions, balancing speed, quality, and customer impact. Pricing packaging ownership: partner with Finance/GTM to define pricing and packaging for your product area Launch leadership: own go-to-market coordination for releases — enablement, positioning input, and rollout sequencing Communicate roadmap, goals, and progress clearly to stakeholders and leadership.
