  • Define and begin executing a multi-year enterprise informatics roadmap.
  • Make key architectural and build-vs-buy decisions.
  • Align the organization around standardized platforms.
  • Demonstrate measurable improvements in scalability, reliability, and operational efficiency.

Qualifications

  • 15+ years of progressive experience in laboratory informatics, enterprise software platforms, or large-scale systems supporting regulated, mission-critical environments.
  • Demonstrated success leading large, complex organizations (100+ people), preferably at the VP or equivalent senior leadership level.
  • Deep understanding of laboratory workflows, including sample accessioning, order and sample tracking, and wet-lab and dry-lab orchestration.
  • Proven experience modernizing legacy or homegrown platforms, including leading major architectural transformations and build-vs-buy decisions.
  • Strong executive presence with the ability to influence across functions and communicate effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Requirements

  • Experience supporting CLIA- and CAP-certified clinical laboratories.
  • Familiarity with FDA-regulated diagnostics, LDTs, and regulatory submissions.
  • Hands-on experience with CSV, audit readiness, and regulated system lifecycle management.
  • Background in genomics, oncology diagnostics, or other high-throughput laboratory environments.

Benefits

  • Competitive compensation package, including base salary, performance-based incentives, and equity participation.
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, vision, life, and disability plans for eligible employees and their dependents.
  • Free testing for employees and their immediate families, in addition to fertility care benefits.
