Customer Engagement & Scientific Exchange Map, prioritize, and build trust-based partnerships with scientific and clinical experts across endocrinology, cardiology, internal medicine, primary care, obesity medicine, bariatric surgery, nephrology, and allied specialties — reflecting the increasingly cross-specialty nature of cardiometabolic care.

Engage private and public stakeholders (IMSS, ISSSTE, CCINSHAE, COFEPRIS, CENETEC, CSG, SEDENA, SEMAR, PEMEX) in compliant, non-promotional scientific exchange that supports access decisions grounded in evidence. Territory Ownership & Insight Generation Own the medical profile of your assigned territory: define engagement priorities, uncover clinical care gaps, and capture actionable insights that inform medical, evidence-generation, and launch plans.

Strategic Vision & Cross-Functional Leadership Partner with Access, HEOR, Regulatory, Commercial, Marketing, and Compliance colleagues so Medical Affairs contributes as a strategic, evidence-based voice across the full product lifecycle — pre-launch, launch, and post-launch.

Core Capabilities Fluent English and Spanish, able to present complex scientific data and manage rigorous Q&A in both languages.

Digital fluency — comfort operating within CRM ecosystems (Veeva CRM), literature databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, UpToDate, ClinicalKey), virtual-engagement platforms (MS Teams), and insight/analytics dashboards; openness to AI-enabled internal tools that enhance medical affairs productivity. Mobility — willing and able to travel approximately 50–60% nationally , including overnight, complemented by a parallel omnichannel engagement model for virtual interactions.
