Client Relationship Management: Build and own senior client relationships at the VP/CxO level; act as a trusted advisor on AI strategy for clinical R&D.
Solution Architecture: Design modern AI solution architectures, including Agentic AI frameworks (e.g., LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen), GenAI/LLM-based applications, and predictive analytics for clinical operations, biometrics, drug safety, and medical affairs.
Thought Leadership: Represent Axtria at industry conferences, client workshops, and analyst briefings; publish points of view on GenAI and Agentic AI in the clinical value chain.
Delivery Oversight: Partner with delivery teams to ensure technical rigor, quality, and on-time execution of sold engagements.
GTM & Capability Building: Partner with Axtria's India-based SME team to develop new offerings, lead proof-of-concepts (PoCs), and build go-to-market collateral for AI-led clinical solutions.
Maintain high CSAT and NPS scores to ensure customer satisfaction and long-term client relationships.

Prior experience at a leading consulting or technology services firm required.
Demonstrated success selling clinical analytics, AI, or technology consulting engagements to pharmaceutical or biotech clients.
Strong working knowledge of the clinical domain — study design, clinical feasibility, clinical real-world evidence (RWE), study rescue, and clinical data repositories (CDR) — beyond a purely technical or SME lens.
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Life Sciences, Data Science, Computer Science, or a related field.
Based in or willing to relocate to New Jersey; willing to travel to client sites as needed.
