This is a content technology leadership role for someone who lives at the intersection of content, technology, and creative execution. As the Global Content Studio Technology Product Lead, you will own the authoring platforms and production execution that power Medical Affairs content delivery at scale - turning strategic content briefs into finished multi-format deliverables (e.g., HTML format conversions needed for VAE/SFMC email initiatives, web content, interactive slide decks/infographics, and other digital experiences.

You will build and operate the content production engine from the ground up - standing up the team, partnering with design agencies, and embedding AI tools directly into the production workflow to transform how Medical Affairs content is created, adapted, and delivered globally.
