Our Healthcare & Life Sciences engineering teams are global and growing, with most of them currently in Central and Eastern Europe. This is a strategic, hands-on role for a leader who combines deep technical expertise, delivery discipline in regulated environments, and business acumen. It offers the chance to shape the future of Healthcare & Life Sciences by leading cutting-edge product development for industry leaders and challengers.

  • Ability to go deep into architecture and technical challenges, and to defend technical choices to client leadership.
  • Experience driving large engagements from pre-sales to execution: solution shaping, estimation, proposals, RFI/RFP responses.
  • Proven ability to grow existing accounts and develop new business together with sales.
  • Experience managing account or unit P&L: revenue forecasting, margin, pricing, and capacity planning.
  • Experience working with foreign customers in the IT industry.
  • Experience designing, tailoring, and reviewing KPIs and OKRs for subordinates.
  • Strong commercial skills: negotiating MSAs and SOWs, and understanding of T&M, fixed-price and managed-services models.
  • Track record of building and mentoring high-performing distributed teams, including senior managers and architects.
  • Confident communication with C-level and VP-level client stakeholders.
  • MSc in Computer Science, Electronics, Biomedical Engineering or equivalent.
  • Fluent English; Polish, Slovak, Croatian, Romanian, Ukrainian or German is a plus.
  • Willingness to travel internationally on a regular basis.

Job responsibilities

  • Lead and scale a multi-account HLS engineering organization across several locations.

  • Partner with sales on account plans, pre-sales, proposals and new business; identify growth opportunities in the HLS market.
  • Own contracts and commercial terms with clients and partners, in coordination with Legal.
  • Ensure delivery meets regulatory and quality requirements under the established QMS.
  • Own scope, estimates and commitments, and manage risks to on-time, on-quality delivery.
  • Stay hands-on: review architecture and key technical decisions, and help teams resolve complex issues.
