And by harnessing Danaher’s system of continuous improvement, you help turn ideas into impact - innovating at the speed of life.\nAt IDBS, we are at the cutting edge of providing innovative software solutions and services that empower scientists and researchers to accelerate their discoveries by helping them design, execute and orchestrate processes, manage, contextualize and structure their data and gain valuable insights throughout the drug lifecycle, from R&D through manufacturing. We work with 80% of the top 20 global BioPharma companies. Our customers engage in groundbreaking work, from pioneering biological research to developing new therapies and medicines. Join us at IDBS to continuously grow and make a real impact, working alongside passionate colleagues who care deeply about our mission and each other.\nIDBS is seeking a Product Owner, Data Platform to own the data foundation of our scientific informatics platform. Our mission is to help life sciences organisations capture, govern and reuse scientific data so that discoveries move faster from the lab bench to the patient, and the Data Platform is where that mission starts.\nThis role combines product ownership with deep fluency in modern data architecture, scientific data modelling and regulated data integrity. You will treat scientific data as a first class product, owning the full supply chain from instrument and edge ingestion, through modelling and governance, to exposure for AI, workflow, analytics and customer data lake consumers.\nYou will drive a critical transformation: moving IDBS from a traditional electronic lab notebook capture tool to an enterprise Data Product Provider. That means governed, versioned, high quality data products with explicit contracts, lineage and service levels, available to enterprise customers in their own ecosystems without point to point integration.\nThis is a senior individual contributor role operating in an Agile and Lean environment, with delivery aligned through Programme Increment (PI) Planning across multiple product streams. You will lead through influence, hold a high bar for quality, and model the Danaher Core Values and Behaviours in everything you do.\nThis position reports to the Head of Product Delivery and is part of the Platform Product Team and will be a office based role (based in the UK), however a remote position will be considered for the right candidate.\nIn this role, you will have the opportunity to:\nOwn the vision, roadmap and performance of the Data Platform, translating business and technical needs into outcome focused, INVEST compliant requirements that deliver reliable, scalable and cost effective data services to scientists, informatics leads and downstream product teams.\nDefine and track product metrics and non functional requirements, including ingestion latency and throughput, contract adherence, resilience, disaster recovery and cost governance thresholds.\nDrive data contract and schema evolution practices so that breaking and non breaking changes are managed predictably across lab domains.\nIdentify upstream and downstream dependencies ahead of PI Planning, sequence critical path work with Product Owners and engineering leads, and communicate trade offs and runway decisions clearly to technical and commercial stakeholders.\nLead discovery with Data Engineers, Informatics Leads, MSAT and Tech Ops, and build design partner feedback loops with enterprise customers to validate sandboxes, data replay pipelines and governed sharing to external platforms such as Snowflake, Databricks and Power BI.\nEstablish operational quality practices: defined handling of non conforming payloads (quarantine, alerting, retry, reconciliation), monitoring and runbooks in place before handover, and fast triage of data incidents with engineering and Support.\nEnsure the platform meets ISO 9001, ISO 27001 and GxP expectations, owning ALCOA+ data integrity, tenant isolation, access control, data residency and audit readiness with security and architecture.\nThe essential requirements of the job include:\nProven experience as a Product Owner or Product Manager for data or platform products in enterprise software, able to translate technical infrastructure into outcome focused, INVEST compliant stories and measurable data product metrics.\nDeep understanding of modern lakehouse architecture, including medallion data tiers, transactional storage engines and change data capture patterns (for example Databricks and Delta Lake).\nStrong grasp of scientific data modelling, including unstructured to structured transformation, data contracts, schema evolution, ontologies and provenance standards (for example W3C PROV).\nPractical knowledge of laboratory integration and ingestion patterns, from instruments and edge collectors (for example OPC UA, AWS Greengrass) to central storage, including streaming versus batch trade offs.\nDemonstrable experience in regulated GxP environments with ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 controls, including data integrity, ALCOA+ principles, audit trails and multi tenant security boundaries.\nStrong cross functional communication skills, able to engage data engineers, informatics leads, commercial teams and enterprise customers with equal credibility.\nPractical experience in Agile and Lean delivery, including PI Planning and cross stream dependency management.\nTravel, Motor Vehicle Record & Physical/Environment Requirements:\nTravel: Occasional business travel required (up to 10-15%), including team PI planning events, customer visits, or company meetings.\nBenefits & Work Arrangement\nIDBS, a Danaher operating company, offers a broad array of comprehensive, competitive benefit programs that add value to our lives.
