The Vice President of Product Engineering, Genetics Portfolio is a senior executive leadership role responsible for the software product strategy, roadmap, and delivery for Natera’s Women’s Health, Organ Health, and Emerging Business/Rare Disease Diagnostics business units. This leader acts as the primary technical liaison to the business unit General Managers and is the single person accountable for the vertical’s success in these high-growth areas.

Success will be reflected in product launch predictability, revenue enablement through new features, and a seamless digital experience that positions Natera as the market leader in reproductive, renal, and rare disease health.
