Evoleen
Evoleen drives the digital healthcare revolution by creating built-to-buy start-ups in close collaboration with global corporate partners. Evoleeners are entrepreneurs-at-heart. We take ownership for the realization of our start-ups and share both risks and returns with our partners. At Evoleen, you will be joining a team of highly motivated entrepreneurs that maintains a can-do culture marked by passion, honesty, and a love of good coffee.
We are looking for someone exceptional who is driven to make a real impact on the healthcare environment across the globe, who is excited to join a start-up company and to play an active role in shaping a start-up and its ecosystem, and someone who understands this sector and who is willing to fully immerse themselves in the product.
Senior Project Manager
We're seeking a Senior Manager to lead the creation of a new venture focused on developing connectivity devices for injection pens.
You will oversee all product development activities from inception, working directly with clients to understand their needs and create a solution that meets their vision, requirements, and regulatory standards.
To be successful, you need to be able to manage a variety of interfaces (technically and personally). You need to have a detailed technical understanding of electronics, firmware, mechanics, injection molding and production processes. Since it is hard to understand all topics equally well, you need to bring a good mix and be willing to learn and sweat the details.
We are looking for someone who is willing to go into uncharted territory, for whom the experience of the journey matters more than following a pre-planned path. We are looking for someone who can turn undefined situations into defined ones and who thrives in a team of like-minded people, rather than working alone and doing things by the book.
