Digital R&D Decision Fabric Product Owner - Toronto - BioTalent Canada

Description

Ready to push the limits of what's possible? Join Sanofi in one of our corporate functions and you can play a vital part in the performance of our entire business while helping to make an impact on millions around the world.

Are you ready to shape the future of medicine? Join Sanofi as the Digital R&D Decision Fabric Product Owner, where you'll lead the design and implementation of the R&D Decision Fabric. A decision fabric is a programmatic AI-driven decision infrastructure designed to support all of R&D strategic and operational decision applications. Think of it as an intelligent, interconnected layer that weaves together data, analytics, AI models, and decision-making workflows across the entire R&D organization. Rather than having siloed decision-making tools scattered across different functions, the decision fabric creates a unified, scalable platform where decisions—from portfolio prioritization and clinical trial design to resource allocation and risk assessment—are informed by real-time data, predictive insights, and organizational knowledge.

As Product Owner, you'd be orchestrating the development of this foundational infrastructure that democratizes access to AI-powered decision support, ensures consistency in how decisions are made across R&D, and ultimately accelerates our ability to bring life-changing medicines to patients by moving from ad-hoc, experience-based decision-making to a more systematic, data-driven approach that amplifies human expertise with AI capabilities.

We are an innovative global healthcare company with one purpose: to chase the miracles of science to improve people's lives. We're also a company where you can flourish and grow your career, with countless opportunities to explore, make connections with people, and stretch the limits of what you thought was possible. Ready to get started?
