This role is responsible for building and running the systems that connect MyOme to the broader medical and scientific community, including KOL development, field insights, research partnerships, and clinical education.

Success in this role requires deep grounding in clinical genetic testing, proven experience designing or scaling MSL programs, and the ability to operate with autonomy in an early-stage environment.

• Contribute to scientific initiatives, including abstracts, presentations, and publications; represent MyOme at scientific meetings and conferences
• Educate external and internal stakeholders on the clinical utility, advantages, and limitations of MyOme's genomic testing offerings through clear and effective communication
• Work closely with Marketing to develop educational resources and slide decks tailored for both clinician and patient audiences, ensuring scientific accuracy and clarity
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Clinical Affairs, Product, Research, and Marketing to ensure alignment on clinical messaging and a consistent client experience
• Serve as the internal subject matter expert on MSL practices, mentoring our existing MSL and shaping how the function grows over time

What You'll Ne ed:

• Master's degree or higher in genetic counseling, human genetics, or a related healthcare field; board-certified genetic counselor strongly preferred
• Minimum 3 years of experience in an MSL or equivalent role, with demonstrated KOL development experience and a track record of leadership within an MSL function.

• Strong grounding in clinical genetic testing and genomics, with working knowledge across proactive health, monogenic conditions, and rare disease applications, limitations, and industry trends
