The **Digital In Silico Research** team is a key innovation engine within Digital R&D, dedicated to pioneering next-generation digital products that reshape how R&D discovers, designs, and develops new medicines. We harness cutting-edge AI, machine learning, and computational modeling to build transformative in-silico solutions—empowering scientists with predictive insights, streamlining complex workflows, and turning data into decisive action. Our team plays a critical role in accelerating and transforming drug discovery and translational research by building AI-powered, in-silico solutions that empower scientists, enhance decision-making, and connect data to action. As **Digital Product Owner – Target Discovery** you will be responsible for owning and developing AI-powered target discovery and validation products that help Sanofi identify and prioritize novel therapeutic targets. You will own the product vision and backlog for specific target discovery solutions, working closely with development teams to deliver capabilities that combine advanced AI, machine learning, and data integration with experimental techniques. Working at the intersection of computational biology, AI/ML, and drug discovery, you will translate scientific requirements into actionable product features that accelerate the path from disease understanding to therapeutic intervention. * Own the product vision and backlog for specific target discovery AI/ML products* Create and maintain detailed product roadmaps aligned with scientific priorities* Write clear user stories and acceptance criteria for development teams* Manage sprint planning, backlog grooming, and product iterations in an Agile environment* Prioritize features and requirements based on scientific impact and technical feasibility**Scientific Requirements & Delivery:** * Gather and analyze requirements from scientific stakeholders* Translate complex biological needs into clear technical specifications* Work directly with development teams to ensure successful feature delivery* Validate that delivered solutions meet scientific user needs* Drive continuous product improvement based on user feedback* Build strong relationships with computational biologists and wet-lab scientists* Facilitate communication between scientific users and technical teams* Partner with data scientists to implement effective ML models* Work with IT teams to ensure robust data pipelines and infrastructure* Engage with scientific stakeholders to understand evolving research needs**Experience:** **Technical Skills:** **Target Discovery Domain Knowledge** - Familiarity with target identification and validation processes, disease biology, biological pathways, and the drug development pipeline – hands-on experience with a variety of small, large, and macromolecule experimental methods ideal **Bioinformatics & Computational Biology** - Knowledge of common tools, platforms, and workflows used in computational target discovery **Product/Project Management Methodologies** - Proficiency in Agile/Scrum, roadmap planning, backlog management, and user story creation **Pharma Regulatory Landscape** - Awareness of data privacy regulations (GDPR, HIPAA), validation requirements, and GxP considerations **Technical Communication** - Ability to understand technical discussions with data scientists and translate requirements between technical and scientific teams **Soft Skills:** **Additional Qualifications:** * Experience in or good understanding of Pharma R&D portfolio optimization in large pharma, or demonstrated ability to learn the business quickly* Strong networking, influencing and negotiating skills and superior problem-solving skills* Demonstrated experience leading design-thinking and ideation workshops with diverse groups of stakeholders* Experience in leading cross-functional teams and managing complex projects or programs* Excellent ability to listen to stakeholders and end users, ensuring products are built to address their specific needs and use cases* Passion for leveraging AI and computational approaches to accelerate drug discovery and improve patient outcomes* Bring the miracles of science to life alongside a supportive, future-focused team.* Discover endless opportunities to grow your talent and drive your career, whether it’s through a promotion or a lateral move, at home or internationally.* Enjoy a thoughtful, well-crafted rewards package that recognizes your contribution and amplifies your impact.* Take good care of yourself and your family, with a wide range of health and wellbeing benefits including high-quality healthcare, prevention and wellness programs, and at least 14 weeks’ gender-neutral parental leave.
