Beacon Talent is leading a confidential search for a venture-backed company building an applied AI + data platform that supports life sciences teams (biopharma, medtech, and research organizations) with secure access to real-world clinical datasets and tooling that accelerates discovery and development while maintaining high standards for privacy, quality, and responsible use.

As Senior Product Manager, Life Sciences Data Products, you will own the strategy and execution for a portfolio of data-driven products used by life sciences customers to find, access, evaluate, and operationalize complex clinical datasets for R&D and clinical development workflows.

This is a hands-on, high-agency role—ideal for a PM who loves ambiguous problem spaces, can translate market signals into crisp product bets, and can partner deeply with engineering and data teams to ship scalable product capabilities.

• Product vision & roadmap: Define the life sciences product strategy, identify the highest-leverage problems, and translate them into a sequenced roadmap with measurable outcomes.

• Discovery & validation: Run customer interviews, workflow mapping, and opportunity sizing to determine what to build, what to standardize, and what to avoid as one-off services.

• Scalable data products: Build repeatable “productized” capabilities that improve dataset usability, governance, search/retrieval, cohort building, and downstream analytics readiness.

• AI-assisted workflows: Partner with technical teams to design automation that reduces friction in data access and analysis (e.g., metadata enrichment, quality signals, dataset packaging, evaluation tooling).

• Execution leadership: Write requirements, define success metrics, manage tradeoffs, and drive delivery from concept through launch—iterating based on usage and customer outcomes.

• Cross-functional alignment: Collaborate closely with go-to-market partners to ensure positioning, packaging, and feedback loops inform the roadmap without turning the product into custom projects.

• Market awareness: Stay current on life sciences R&D and clinical development trends and incorporate them into differentiation and product choices.

Required

• 5+ years building data products or platforms for life sciences and/or healthcare customers.

• Strong product discovery muscle: customer interviews, problem framing, prioritization, and roadmap ownership.

• Technical fluency across data infrastructure, APIs, pipelines, and working concepts in ML-enabled products (no need to code).

• Track record partnering with engineering and data teams to deliver complex, high-impact product work.

• Excellent communication—credible with technical teams and clear with non-technical stakeholders.

• Comfort operating in a fast-moving environment with evolving inputs and limited process.

Nice to have

• 0→1 product experience or taking early products to scale in a regulated domain.

• UX/product design sensibility with strong intuition for end-user workflows.

• Prior experience in analytics, data science, or experimentation.

• Familiarity with privacy, governance, and quality frameworks for sensitive datasets.

• Direct ownership of a high-impact roadmap at the intersection of life sciences + data platforms + applied AI

• Meaningful influence over what becomes productized vs. service-heavy

• Close collaboration with technical leadership and high visibility across the company

Competitive base + equity + benefits. (Exact range varies by level and location and will be shared during the process.)
