About ODAIA

Reducing patients' time to therapy by facilitating meaningful interactions with healthcare providers, through human-centric software powered by AI.

What's On Offer

We are evolving our Go-To-Market (GTM) motion into a consultative, outcome-driven model, shifting from a transactional SaaS vendor to a Transformation Partner.

Reporting to the Chief Commercial Officer, as Managing Principal, AI-Driven Commercial Effectiveness, you will bridge the gap between high-level strategy and real-time AI execution.

  • Account Strategy: Lead account-level strategy, navigating complex business unit structures and aligning commercial priorities.
  • Business Cases: Translate complex client pain points into high-impact business cases, aligning investment to outcomes like revenue growth, productivity, and competitive advantage.
  • Market Intelligence: Provide deep market intelligence back to our Engineering and Product teams to ensure ODAIA remains the premier "tool of the trade."

"Sell-to-Deliver" Accountability & Pod Leadership

  • Lead a cross-functional specialist pod, responsible for segment strategy and revenue growth.

  • Define future GTM strategy and run your market segment like a mini-business unit.

Operational Agility

  • Operates as a Player-Coach with a bias for action.
  • Effective within a lean, high-autonomy infrastructure.
  • Ability to shift from 30,000-foot strategy to tactical execution seamlessly.

What We Offer

  • Values-Based Culture: We Ignite Innovation, Own It, and Stand Together.
