Exceptional organizational skills with ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines.
Proven ability to learn quickly, adapt, and operate with minimal supervision.
Clear communicator who can work effectively with both technical and non-technical partners.

Familiarity with data tools and ecosystems connected to Veeva (e.g., ETL processes, data warehouses, BI tools).
Exposure to Agile, release management, UAT leadership, or managing small projects/tasks.
Interest in (or experience with) AI/ML, automation, or advanced analytics in a commercial context.
Success Profile (What We’re Really Looking For)
