About the Role
We are looking for a high-impact Intern to join our Product team. We are looking for a deeply technical, incredibly resourceful individual who can operate as an independent unit. You will sit at the intersection of advanced genetic medicine and executable business strategy, helping us translate complex scientific plans into reality.
If you thrive in ambiguity, love "figuring things out" without a manual, and can speak the language of both science and sales, we want to hear from you.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Market Intelligence: Conducting deep-dive research into market trends and generating technical content to support Sales, Marketing, and Product teams.
- Program Management: Drafting Statements of Work (SOWs) based on customer requirements and building comprehensive customer reports and presentations.
- Stakeholder Alignment: Managing multiple parallel projects and critical paths, ensuring cross-functional teams remain aligned on deliverables and timelines.
- Scientific Communication: Translating high-level scientific plans into executable timelines and professional slide decks.
What We’re Looking For
The "Need to Haves"
- Proactive Independence: You function as a self-directed unit. You don't wait for "hand-holding"; you anticipate what’s next and have a plan ready to go.
- Project Mastery: Demonstrated experience managing multiple parallel projects, critical paths, and cross-functional teams.
- Meticulous Organization: You possess top-tier documentation skills and a "can-do" attitude toward complex administrative and technical hurdles.
- Emotional Intelligence: High EQ with the ability to influence without authority and manage diverse stakeholders effectively.
- Scientific Translation: The ability to take a scientific concept and turn it into a clear, executable project plan.
- Adaptability: Total comfort with ambiguity and the rapid pace of a scaling biotech-software environment.
The "Nice to Haves"
- Advanced Degree: Currently pursuing or recently completed a PhD or MS in Cell Therapy, Gene Therapy, or a related bioscience field.
- Technical Fluency: Ability to perform molecular design and converse technically with both scientists and non-technical stakeholders.
- Resourcefulness: A talent for web and market research—finding the "missing piece" of information that creates a competitive advantage.
- Patience: The "added bonus" trait for navigating the complexities of long-term scientific development and cross-disciplinary communication.
Core Qualities for Success
- Technical Fluency: You are deeply grounded in genetic medicine.
- Self-Direction: You figure things out with minimal guidance.
- Multilingualism: You can talk science with a mixed audience, from the bench to the boardroom.
- High Output: You are a pro at scientific writing and high-quality slide-making.
