We are broadening our vision beyond diabetes to empower people to take control of health. That means personalized, actionable insights aimed at solving important health challenges. To continue what we’ve started: Improving human health. We are driven by thousands of ambitious, passionate people worldwide who are willing to fight like warriors to earn the trust of our customers by listening, serving with integrity, thinking big, and being dependable. We’ve already changed millions of lives and we’re ready to change millions more. Our future ambition is to become a leading consumer health technology company while continuing to develop solutions for serious health conditions. We’ll get there by constantly reinventing unique biosensing-technology experiences. Though we’ve come a long way from our small company days, our dreams are bigger than ever. The opportunity to improve health on a global scale stands before us.

• You will lead cross-functional program/project teams, develop plans and executing activities across R&D, Commercial, Operations, Quality, Clinical, Regulatory, Finance, and Legal.
• You are accountable to drive cross-functional alignment of program scope, alignment of product roadmaps, product delivery timelines, and communication and governance by an executive committee.
• You will resolve internal and external product tradeoffs, manage their risks, and make decisions for the product within the bounds of the product contract you lead.
• You will regularly communicate strategy, recommendations, external product impacts, and product updates to functional and executive leadership, driving management decisions when needed.
• You are responsible for creating and maintaining a culture of accountability and collaboration within your teams by ensuring mutual accountability, removing organizational barriers, ensuring and facilitating excellent communication, and resolving conflict promptly.
• You will mentor team members and serve as an advisor for each regarding their planning, milestones, task completion, risk burn-down, and conflict resolution. You will aid in evaluating and providing candid feedback directly to these team members and their managers, including for their performance reviews.

What Makes You Successful

• Demonstrated successful leadership of a complex medical device development program that introduced new technologies to market, utilizing strong technical, cross-functional, and managed risk leadership.
• Demonstrated cross-functional technical leadership and relevant experience across mechanical, electrical, systems, and mobile app engineering disciplines in medical device product development or adjacent industries. This includes experience integrating complex hardware, software, and connected mobile experiences; driving technical tradeoffs across product architecture, design, verification, validation, and manufacturability; and partnering with engineering teams to deliver wearable or connected technologies from feasibility through commercialization.
