FastPace is the initial strategic platform within a broader portfolio of decision systems supporting commercial decision-making and account prioritization. It integrates multiple data sources, scoring methodologies, and visualization layers — including emerging Copilot capabilities — to provide a consistent, explainable view of which opportunities matter most — and why.
IQVIA is seeking an experienced Product & Engineering Lead to take end-to-end ownership of FastPace as the first core platform, with scope to expand across additional decision systems over time. This role operates within asmall, dedicated team focused on Analytics, Technology, and Innovation Enablement, and sits at the intersection of product management, advanced analytics, and engineering.
The position combinesclear product ownership responsibilitieswith ahands-on approach to data, analytical logic, and platform delivery. Priorities are shaped in close alignment with commercial stakeholders and governance structures, while the role is accountable for ensuring that the platform — and future systems — evolves in a coherent, scalable, and reliable way.
Working closely with the Governance, Enablement & Operations Lead, who ensures the platform is trusted, adopted, and operationally sound, this role focuses on the analytical logic, technical delivery, and product evolution that underpin the system.
A key aspect of the role is maintaining thecredibility and trustworthiness of the underlying analytics. This means not only building and refining scoring logic, but being able tochallenge, defend, and explain itin commercial and executive contexts.
While the role is initially focused on FastPace, it is expected to evolve to cover additional products and decision systems within the broader Analytics, Technology, and Innovation Enablement portfolio.
The Product & Engineering Lead is accountable for ensuring that FastPace, and over time additional platforms, operate as reliable, scalable, and trusted decision systems across the full stack: data, model, dashboard, and decision use.
Owning theproduct roadmap, backlog, and release cadence, ensuring alignment with business priorities, governance structures, and steering committee direction
Translating stakeholder needs intoclear, prioritized product enhancementsacross data pipelines, scoring logic, visualization layers, and Copilot capabilities
Owningdashboard performance and usability, ensuring that visualizations are clear, decision-oriented, and optimized for the user experience
The function operates through a lean, execution-focused team, initially centered on FastPace, where product, analytics, and engineering responsibilities are closely integrated.
In this environment, the role requires:
The expectation is to contribute both strategically and operationally, working closely with stakeholders while remaining directly engaged in the underlying data, logic, and outputs.
We are looking for individuals who combineanalytical depth with product ownership and practical execution.
A strong foundation inquantitative analysis, statistical modeling, or data science— including experience with scoring methodologies, predictive modeling, and rule-based analytics frameworks — with the ability to build, refine, and defend structured decision frameworks
The ability to ensure outputs arerobust, explainable, and trusted, including experience with data validation and quality assurance frameworks, especially in environments where decisions need to be justified and understood
Familiarity withdata visualization and BI tooling(e.g. Power BI), including semantic model design, dashboard performance optimization, and user-centric visual communication
Within a lean team, these capabilities are complemented by ahands-on approach, with individuals expected to work directly in the data, logic, and tooling when needed.
Technical & Analytical Expertise:
This is ahands-on rolerequiring strong technical capability across multiple layers of the platform.
Proven experience working withPythonfor data processing, analysis, pipeline development, and implementation of analytical or scoring logic
StrongSQL skillsfor data exploration, transformation, validation, and troubleshooting across large and complex datasets
Familiarity withdata pipeline and ETL workflows, including multi-source data integration, refresh dependencies, and failure-point awareness
The role requires the ability to engage directly with the underlying logic, data, and delivery tooling — not solely to manage or oversee delivery.
Success in this role is reflected in a platform that:
Produces outputs that areclear, credible, and actionable, with minimal scoring discrepancies or stakeholder challenges
Over time, FastPace — and subsequent platforms — become standard inputs into decision-making, enabling more consistent and confident prioritization across the organization.
