Job description

Do you bring a proven track record as a commercially focused product manager? Do you have direct knowledge working with genomic applications or diagnostics for Rare or Inherited Diseases, or similar small panel genomics?

If this sounds like you and you are driven by purpose, join the SOPHiA GENETICS Application Product Management Team as a Senior Manager / Associate Director for our Rare & Inherited Disease portfolio of Hereditary Cancer & Pharmacogenomic applications, and enable us to make a positive impact on the outcomes for cancer and rare disease patients worldwide.

Ideally, you will be in proximity to our US (Boston) or Switzerland (Rolle) Corporate offices on a hybrid work-schedule; however, suitably qualified candidates can be considered on a remote basis across the US-North East or East Coast.

Due to high collaboration and team structure within Europe, this role may not suit someone working remotely from the US West Coast.

Your mission:

Reporting directly to the Vice President, Application Product Management, you will help lead the strategic direction and execution for Rare Disease product lines. Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to ensure product success in a competitive market.

The value you'll add:

• Manage the product lifecycle from concept to launch for Small & Targeted Panels across hereditary cancer and PGx applications.
• Develop and execute product strategies that align with company goals and market needs.
• Engage with customers and stakeholders to gather insights and feedback.
• Drive product positioning, messaging, and competitive analysis.
• Collaborate with marketing, sales, and R&D for successful product development and commercialization.

What you'll bring:

• 5+ years of product management experience, preferably in diagnostics or healthcare.
• Experience with Hereditary cancer and PGx applications and Rare Disease portfolios is highly desirable.
• Strong analytical skills and ability to translate data into actionable insights.
• Proven ability to work collaboratively in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment.
• Excellent communication and presentation skills.
• BSc, MSc, or equivalent in a relevant scientific or technical field.

As a public organization facing ongoing commercial growth, you will bring a success-oriented and solutions-focused mindset that embraces team collaborations, change, growth, and inclusion.

As an international organization, English is our primary business language. As part of your recruitment journey, you should expect to meet English-only speakers. For best chances of success, you should include your CV in English. Unfortunately, non-English CVs have a high likelihood of being rejected at the application stage.

You will be joining an organization with the patient at the heart of every decision and action, driven by purpose as we pursue exponential growth.

Business recognition and accolades include:

• World's most innovative companies (Top 10)
• World's smartest companies (Top 50)
• 100 Best Places to Work in Boston
• Top 10 European Tech Startup
• Top 10 European biotechs startup to watch
• Top 25 East-Coast Biotech to watch

US:

• Outstanding Medical, Dental & Vision with 90% Employer Contribution
