Senior Product Manager - eSource

Position Summary

Every clinical trial runs on source data, and for most of the industry's history that data lived on paper, got transcribed later, and quietly generated errors and delays along the way. CRIO's eSource platform captures protocol-driven data directly at the point of patient interaction, catches mistakes before they happen, and gives sponsors and CROs real-time visibility into their sites. The results: 40% higher enrollment, 40% fewer protocol deviations, and 40% faster study startup.

eSource is the core of what we do and the product the rest of our platform is built around. You'll own it.

The ideal candidate is energetic, self-motivated, hands-on, data-driven, and passionate about achieving strong outcomes for our customers.
