-translating research ambition into products that generate real impact in healthcare, in Germany and beyond.

D4L Collect is our sensor data collection platform for digital health studies
-a unified solution where researchers can simultaneously capture patient-reported and multimodal sensor data, using FHIR, in a GDPR-compliant manner.

We're looking for a Senior Product Manager to lead D4L Collect's further development into a modern, sensor-native EDC platform bridging academic registries and clinical trials by introducing Electronic Data Capture (EDC) capabilities. You'll partner with the Lead Product Manager and Project Managers already on the team, and work closely with our engineering, product design, scientific and regulatory teams to make D4L Collect the platform of choice for digital health studies, patient registries and regulated trials.

The position is full-time, based in Berlin / Potsdam, with a permanent contract.

You'll lead D4L Collect's evolution from a sensor-native registry platform into a modern, regulatory-grade EDC platform
-starting with our flagship deployment at Mount Sinai for the Mount Sinai Million Health Discoveries Program, where you'll own the product strategy and build a scalable SaaS roadmap.

-building the software that powers clinical trials, in close partnership with the people who run them.

You'll own the roadmap across three phases:

Concretely, you will:

• Ship native Epic EHR integrations (SMART on FHIR, Epic Interconnect) and REDCap import/export so study teams can migrate without manual re-entry
• Translate CDISC (SDTM/CDASH), 21 CFR Part 11 and EU Annex 11 requirements into clear engineering PRDs (e-signatures, immutable audit logs, query workflows, data locking)
• Partner with site investigators, study coordinators and clinical data managers as co-design partners to shape end-to-end workflows
• Define how captured clinical data flows into Data2
  
  Evidence to accelerate downstream Real-World Evidence (RWE) generation

Must-Haves:

• 5 years as a Software Product Manager: demonstrated experience writing PRDs, managing backlogs, and shipping features with software engineering teams in a B2B SaaS environment
• 2 years directly defining and shipping Clinical Data Software: direct experience defining and launching EDC, ePRO / eCOA, eConsent, or patient registry software as a software product owner
• Working fluency in clinical standards: demonstrated track record of turning CDISC (SDTM, CDASH), 21 CFR Part 11, and EU Annex 11 requirements into shipped software functionality
• Technical Foundation:
  Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, (Bio)
  Medical Engineering, Health Informatics, or equivalent practical software product experience
• Languages:
  
  fluent in English

Nice-to-Haves

• Hands-on experience integrating wearable, sensor, or medical device APIs into data collection platforms
