VP, Data Product Strategy & GTM

Passionate about precision medicine and advancing the healthcare industry? Recent advancements in underlying technology have finally made it possible for AI to impact clinical care in a meaningful way. Tempus' proprietary platform connects an entire ecosystem of real-world evidence to deliver real-time, actionable insights to physicians, providing critical information about the right treatments for the right patients, at the right time. As the Strategy & GTM Lead, you will sit at the tip of the spear for our product life cycle, serving as the commercial architect for our real-world data asset portfolio. You will be directly responsible for identifying macro market trends, driving focused customer-engagement sprints, and translating complex biopharma customer requirements into commercial data products. Acting as the "horizontal" link to our customer-facing teams, you enable our go-to-market strategy through development of messaging and collateral (in partnership with Marketing), and ultimately pull-through via training of customer-facing teams (in partnership with Sales). What you’ll do: Product Feedback & Market Insights (Phase 1): Own the capture of market trends and drive focused customer engagement sprints to discover unmet data/AI needs and evaluate deep perspectives (e.g., scoping the viability of net-new offerings like an MRD product). Product Definition & Strategy (Phase 2): Act as the ultimate owner for commercial valuation, downstream commercialization strategy, and defining precisely "what" we build to unlock maximum revenue potential across new offerings and substantive features. Cross-Functional Scoping Support (Phase 3): Collaborate closely with Operations and Product/Engineering to ensure initial technical scoping tightly aligns with the initial market problem statement or product gap. Product Launches & GTM Execution (Phase 4): Drive commercial readiness for launches by establishing scalable pricing models, account archetyping, and crafting market-facing messaging, case studies, white papers, and use-case frameworks (in close collaboration with Marketing). Pre-Sales Activation & Delivery (Phase 5): Provide direct, strategic GTM support for pre-sale motions and large-scale enterprise deals to accelerate new customer traction (in close collaboration with Sales). Required Education & Experience: Bachelor’s degree in Business, Data Science, Biology, or a related field; an MBA or advanced degree in a scientific/technical discipline is strongly preferred. 10+ years of experience in product management, strategy consulting, or commercial leadership roles, ideally within life sciences, clinical research, or health-tech organizations. Proven experience in driving revenue growth through successful product launches and enterprise-level GTM strategies. Deep familiarity with the biopharma ecosystem, particularly regarding real-world evidence (RWE), clinical trials, or precision medicine applications. Pay Range: $235,000 - $325,000 The expected salary range above is applicable if the role is performed from Illinois and may vary for other locations (California, Colorado, New York). Actual salary may vary based on qualifications and experience. Tempus offers a full range of benefits, which may include incentive compensation, restricted stock units, medical and other benefits depending on the position. We are an equal opportunity employer. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status. Tempus was founded in August of 2015 by Eric Lefkofsky, after his wife was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. Shortly after he founded the company in an effort to bring the power of technology and artificial intelligence to cancer care, he convinced Ryan Fukushima to join as the company’s first employee. Ryan and Eric began assembling a world class team, focused on building the first version of a platform capable of ingesting real time healthcare data in an effort to personalize diagnostics. We built the platform for oncology and have expanded it to neuropsychiatry, cardiology, infectious disease (through COVID), and radiology. Despite our rapid growth, our mission remains the same—to help make sure patients are on the right drug at the right time, so they can live longer and healthier lives. We’re looking for people who can change the world. Who question the status quo and don’t shy away from tough problems. For the builders who are never done building and the learners who are never done learning. We’re looking for passionate people with undying curiosity. Those who want to attack one of the most challenging problems mankind has ever faced. Head on.
