Overview

SciPro is partnered with a clinical-stage life sciences company preparing for the launch of a first-in-class therapy addressing a significant unmet need in autoimmune disease. The company is building a national team of Physician Engagement Leads to support pre-approval readiness and, following approval, drive successful commercial adoption.

This is a unique opportunity for healthtech-aligned MDs to apply their experience influencing physician behavior, driving adoption, and supporting implementation in a launch-stage biopharma environment. The role is non-promotional prior to FDA approval, with goals focused on physician engagement, institutional readiness, and long-term launch success. Post-approval, the role transitions into a commercially accountable position, with ownership of utilization and outcomes at the sites where relationships have been built.

Key Responsibilities

Pre-Launch Phase (Non-Promotional)

• Establish and maintain trusted, peer-level relationships with influential physicians across academic and community settings
• Lead scientific and clinical discussions focused on unmet need, evolving standards of care, and future treatment paradigms
• Support research collaborations and institutional engagement in partnership with cross-functional teams
• Prepare physician sites and care teams for future adoption through education, workflow alignment, and relationship-building
• Capture and synthesize field insights to inform launch strategy and prioritization
• Represent the organization at conferences and professional meetings

Post-Launch Phase (Commercial Transition)

• Translate early physician relationships into measurable commercial impact at key accounts
• Drive appropriate adoption and sustained utilization of the therapy
• Act as a strategic partner to physicians and institutions to support access, coverage, and continuity of care
• Measure success through outcome-based metrics
• Continue building long-term physician partnerships across the product lifecycle

Qualifications

• MD required
• Strong alignment with healthtech, digital health, or clinician-facing technology adoption
• Experience working directly with physicians to implement new tools, platforms, or care models
• Demonstrated ability to influence physician behavior and drive measurable adoption outcomes (e.g., utilization, enrollment, active use)
• Background in healthtech commercialization, business development, or clinical strategy strongly preferred
• Highly credible with physicians; able to engage as a peer
• Entrepreneurial, resourceful, and comfortable in a high-visibility, fast-moving environment
• Willingness to travel approximately 50%

Why This Role Stands Out

• Strategic Importance: Central to a high-priority launch with significant unmet clinical need
• Lifecycle Ownership: Continuity from pre-approval engagement through commercial execution
• HealthTech-to-Biopharma Bridge: Ideal for MDs looking to apply adoption and implementation expertise in a new context
• Executive Exposure: Regular interaction with senior leadership
• Timing: Entry during a pivotal pre-approval phase with commercialization anticipated in the near term
• Mission-Driven Impact: Opportunity to meaningfully improve care for an underserved patient population
