• Ensure a structured project, timeline, backlog planning with R&D, Commercial, Regulatory Affairs, Global Quality and rest of Digital Data & IT

Solid experience with digital software development

• Have some app development experience
• Possess strong project management and stakeholder management skills
• Have some people management experience
• May have some experience with medical device software development, 62304 and/or agile development, but this is only a plus
