VP, Technology & Product

This is a remote position.

About the Opportunity

Our client is a leading digital health media platform reaching millions of physicians and healthcare professionals across dozens of medical specialties. Backed by a global healthcare organization, the company combines growth-stage agility with enterprise-level stability and capital.

They are undertaking a major platform transformation — evolving from a legacy publishing model into a physician intelligence platform powered by first-party data, real-time personalization, and AI. This is a newly defined, high-visibility leadership role reporting directly into the C-suite, with board-level exposure for the technology roadmap.

What You'll Own

● Full architecture and roadmap authority across a combined engineering, product, and data organization (~20 people)

● A first-party data and identity resolution strategy built for a regulated/semi-regulated industry

● Real-time personalization and recommendation systems, from MVP to production

● A rigorous, hypothesis-driven experimentation and A/B testing framework

● Resolution of cross-functional tension through demonstrated technical decision-making — not facilitation or process theater

● Vendor evaluation and integration across MarTech, CDP, and experimentation platforms

What Success Looks Like in the First 6 Months

● Clear, single-threaded decision-making authority across product and engineering

● A concrete roadmap tying engineering priorities to business and growth targets

● A shift in how the organization treats physician data — from infrastructure to product

● Sustainable shipping velocity in a small, fast-moving team, without heroics or burnout

Requirements

What You Bring

● 10–15 years of progressive technology leadership, including 3–5+ years managing teams with direct architecture and roadmap ownership

● Deep, hands-on experience with MarTech/CDP architecture — fluent in identity resolution, first-party data, and the CDP-vs-DMP distinction

● A shipped, production personalization or recommendation engine you owned end-to-end

● Embedded, daily fluency with AI/LLM tools as part of your own workflow — not just AI adoption at the org level

● Background in digital health media, healthtech SaaS, HCP engagement platforms, or subscription/community content platforms strongly preferred

● Comfort operating in a lean, high-ownership, fast-shipping culture rather than a large, layered enterprise

Logistics

● U.S.-based candidates only; no visa sponsorship available

● Quarterly in-person offsites (NY/NJ area)

● Company size: approximately 200–800 employees; $20M–$150M in revenue
