About Formation Bio
At Formation Bio, we are building the pharma company of the future , redefining drug development with our proprietary, tech-driven platform, focused on bringing new treatments to patients faster and more efficiently.
At Formation Bio we license clinical stage drug assets and develop them in-house using our proprietary, technology-driven platform. Over the past few years, we have been able to significantly expedite the drug development process, evidenced by our acceleration of over 300 clinical trials and reducing trial durations by up to 50%. This innovation translates to getting life-saving drugs to market 1-3 years faster, where we specialize in partnering with and nurturing in-house clinical-stage drugs. Our diverse team of experts come from across multiple industries, combining the best of tech and pharma talent.
Join our culture of innovation where your work directly contributes to transforming patient care in areas such as rheumatology, dermatology, CNS, and cardiometabolic diseases. Our dynamic environment blends advanced technology with strategic drug development, speeding up the delivery of new treatments. Here, every role plays a part in our mission to bring new treatments to patients faster and more efficiently.
About the Position As a Lead Product Manager, you will help execute on our tech strategy through 0-to-1 product conceptualization, rigorous research and experimentation, and iterative development of new products. You will interview, shadow, and collaborate with colleagues throughout the company, including our Medical/R&D, Biometrics, Clinical Program Management, and Clinical Operations teams to help identify solutions to their unique challenges. There won't be established precedents for much of what you work on, but you will see that as an opportunity to innovate.
Product Management at Formation Bio is very solutions-oriented and entrepreneurial. While building in-house products is a core competency, it is by no means a boundary-you should expect to influence process, help develop non-technical solutions, and know when it's appropriate to license 3rd party software to solve problems.
