6 years of amazing experience managing $MM projects at Nanostring, delivering over 30 products including nSolver software, the nCounter assays under Gx Panels, and since 2018 developed over 17 assay products under the GeoMx Digitial Spatial Profiling platform for both nCounter and NGS platforms.2020 highlights - Lead 15 new GeoMx DSP products to market in two years. In the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic, 9 new readout platform products were delivered on time and on target, including: - The NGS Cancer Transcriptome Atlas, an RNA panel 1800+ genes simultaneously with spatial resolution. - Protein Assays products for both nCounter and NGS readouts - Custom RNA product pipeline for nCounter and NGSIn addition, I trained and certified in Scaled Agile framework, while leading and cross-training 3 new Agile and product development teams. My responsibilities included prioritizing goals and epics, quarterly planning, connecting teams across 3 value streams linking risks and dependencies, tracking all team deliverables and driving to milestones and releases, and reporting out to senior management.General/day to day:Manage 2 - 5 projects or products including software or assay development in RNA and Protein analytes on our nCounter or NGS platforms with fresh frozen, FFPE or lysate sample types.Manage 2-5 teams of about 4-12 people in parallel. On-board, train and coach teammates, through product development, quality, Agile and project management best practices. Provide documentation, templates, tools and process improvements.Work across departments of 200+ people in science, engineering, manufacturing, quality, process, product development, supply chain, legal, customer experience, marketing and commercial.
