• Acting as a primary interface between customers and internal functions including Product Management, Marketing, Quality/Regulatory, and Supply Chain you will communicate portfolio requirements, timelines, regulatory constraints, and risk factors for custom projects. You will provide structured feedback to Product Management and Marketing on portfolio gaps, competitive dynamics, emerging technologies such as next-generation blood typing automation and monoclonal antibody platforms, and evolving customer and regulatory needs to inform roadmap decisions and value proposition development.
• You will support implementation and technology transfer activities for successful commercial achievement, helping ensure a smooth transition from development or qualification through to routine regulated supply. You will monitor and analyze the competitive landscape across blood typing reagents, antibody raw materials, and IVD contract development, identifying strategic threats and opportunities to inform portfolio and commercial strategy.
