Competencies and Behaviors

• Cross-functional collaboration and stakeholder management — builds trust and credibility with business leaders across multiple functions and works to build consensus on difficult or sensitive issues.
• Adaptability — comfortable operating with ambiguity and shifting priorities in a fast-changing environment.
• Ownership and initiative — proactively identifies and drives process improvements rather than waiting to be directed.
• Business acumen and critical thinking — connects financial data to operational drivers and business outcomes.

Our leaders are Humble, Hungry, and Smart:

• Humble: The right leaders for Illumia don't need to own the spotlight — they share credit, define success collectively, and are quick to elevate the contributions of others. This is a company that still writes its story. The leaders who thrive here find energy in building something together, not in being recognized as the smartest person in the room.
• Hungry:  We are not looking for caretakers. We are looking for leaders who are restless about what's possible, self-motivated to close the gap between where we are today and where we need to be, and who are already thinking about the next opportunity before anyone asks.
• Smart:  At Illumia, our leaders must operate across a complex, distributed organization spanning multiple product lines, two legacy cultures, and thousands of customers with competing priorities. Technical skills matter, but the ability to read a room, build trust across functions, and bring people along is what separates a great leader from one who burns the organization out.

This position is classified as  Exempt under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and applicable state wage-and-hour laws.

What you get when you join our team:

• Flexible time off to include paid holidays and volunteer time.
• Robust health, dental, and vision insurance plans on your first day of employment

• Comprehensive employee assistance program (EAP)

• Flexible spending account (FSA) or health savings account (HSA)
• Matched 401(k)
• Employee stock purchase plan
