At Roche you can show up as yourself, embraced for the unique qualities you bring. Our culture encourages personal expression, open dialogue, and genuine connections,  where you are valued, accepted and respected for who you are, allowing you to thrive both personally and professionally. This is how we aim to prevent, stop and cure diseases and ensure everyone has access to healthcare today and for generations to come. Join Roche, where every voice matters.

Purpose of the Role:
To drive product innovation and shape long-term business strategy by managing the end-to-end product development lifecycle. You will act as a strategic force, identifying emerging opportunities, assessing their commercial viability, and translating market needs into a cohesive, actionable roadmap that maximizes product value and accelerates growth.

Main Responsibilities:

• Business Model Development: Assist in constructing and iterating on financial models (e.g., pricing strategy, cost analysis, ROI projections) to support business cases for product investments.

• Support Innovation & Strategic Roadmap Development: Assist senior team members in research efforts to identify unmet user needs and market white spaces. Contribute to the strategic planning process by providing data-backed recommendations for innovative concepts to be included in the product roadmap.

• Assist Commercial Viability Assessment: Support the team by conducting preliminary financial analysis (e.g., pricing, basic ROI modeling) and competitive benchmarking to assess the commercial viability of new features and product initiatives.

• Contribute to Go-to-Market (GTM) Strategy: Help draft key sections of GTM plans, including summarizing target customer profiles, developing positioning statements, and documenting pricing strategies for new product launches.

• Product Management Operational Support: Provide crucial assistance to Product Managers with operational tasks, such as gathering user feedback, summarizing requirements, and maintaining the product backlog to ensure execution aligns with the core product vision.

• Cross-Functional Documentation: Support effective collaboration by documenting key decisions, summarizing meeting outcomes, and creating clear communication materials to ensure alignment between Design, Engineering, and Business teams.

How would your day to day look like?
Your day will revolve  around two main areas: Data-Driven Strategy and Cross-Functional Alignment. You'll dedicate significant time to analyzing market trends, reviewing product KPIs, and refining financial models to assess the commercial viability of innovative ideas. The rest of your time will be spent actively supporting and reporting what's going on across the product lifecycle. This involves collaborating frequently with Designers, Developers, other PMs, and Go-to-Market teams (including research) to synthesize feedback, align on execution, and translate complex numerical findings into clear, actionable reports and strategic recommendations.

Who are you?

• You are an individual with a strong business and numerical orientation who thrives on solving complex problems with data.

• Product Strategist: You have a keen interest in the fundamentals of product management, including user empathy, technical feasibility, and strategic prioritization.

• Analytical Mindset: You are proficient with quantitative tools (e.g., advanced Excel/Sheets) and comfortable working with business intelligence platforms.

• Commercial Acumen: You possess a foundational understanding of business principles, financial modeling, and how technology products generate revenue.

• Strategic Communicator: You can distill complex data and technical details into a clear, compelling narrative that informs business decisions and aligns cross-functional teams.

• Proactive Learner: You are eager to take ownership of projects, demonstrate strong attention to detail, and thrive in a fast-paced environment.

What do we offer?
