🧬 Let's accelerate medical innovation

At Power, we're making clinical trials easy to navigate for all patients.

Today, patients look to promising medical research when standard treatments have failed them. Unfortunately, there is no single source of truth that patients can understand and trust. The status quo is a government run website which is written in complex medical jargon that is impossible for most people to navigate.

At the same time, clinical trials are the bottleneck on medical innovation—new medicine takes almost 10 years to test, costs >$2B to develop, and over 86% of all clinical trials are delayed because they can't find enough patients. This is one of the biggest problems facing the life science industry.

Power is the easiest way for patients to access promising new studies. We help more patients find treatments, and accelerate the discovery of novel medicine as we go.

🏹 The role

Power is reaching the point where our product really works. Given this, we’re looking for a b2b growth generalist to help us scale our GTM motions.

If we were to zoom in, you’ll likely spend time:

• Orchestrating our b2b growth function. You’ll come up with and execute marketing / growth initiatives to engage, identify, and capture demand from clinical trial sponsors.
• Building automation and growth systems. We’ll approach growth as a compounding system. Once we figure out something’s working, you’ll build the tools, automations, and agents to enable those activities to scale many times over.
• Data and analytics. You’ll obsess with data. Every visitor, email, and interaction will be measured, quantified, and built into an ongoing hypothesis for how to grow faster.

This role will be based in our SF office.

📊 Ideal Qualifications:

• We don’t believe in strict years of experience but our ideal candidate likely has a few years of experience in fast-paced, high-growth environments.
• You’ve probably spent time engaging B2B accounts in an ABM motion. You know your way around a CRM data model.
• You’re technical enough to build your own automations and run your own analyses. You’re familiar with marketing automation and SQL.
• You spend nights and weekends tinkering on agents and side projects because its fun. You’re probably already using cursor.
• And you’ve also learned how to duct tape a v1 concept in order to validate an idea (webflow → typeform → zapier → airtable)
• A background in pharma R&D or clinical research is a plus but we believe this is learnable

• Connected we help patients proactively reach out to the researchers directly and researchers love connecting with motivated patients

❓ FAQ

What is the culture like at Power?

A few values stand out: urgency, selflessness, agency, pragmatism. We’re looking for owners, so we hope you’ll help us expand this list.

Where is this role located?

This role will be located in our SF office. Our San Francisco team is in office 4-5 days a week (Wednesdays are flexible).

What are the requirements? Do I need certain years of experience, or a background in healthcare?

We have no 'formal' experience requirement, but think it's important that our earliest team members are highly autonomous.

This means that you've been accountable for building large pieces of an organization, or product, users love.

Inversely, if you're at a point in your career where active mentorship is very important to you, this role likely isn't a fit for you.

How is the work life balance?

At the highest level: we trust team members to manage their own schedules and we believe that taking time off to recharge makes you more productive in the long run.

The truth about early stage companies and small teams is that everyone’s work makes a big difference on the company’s trajectory. We’re not afraid to work hard if it’s impactful.

Typically, we check out around 6pm to protect family time and then log-in later to finish anything that was left undone.

How are you funded?

Happy to share specifics but we've raised a large seed round from top investors. We've intentionally raised enough to comfortably get us through the messy 0 to 1 stage.

How does your interview process look?

3x Behaviour Interviews

1x Technical Interview

After which, we'd love to pay you to work with us for ~2 days, so you can get a sense of what it's like to work together.

How big is this market?

Clinical trial recruiting is $3B dollars annually. Total spend on clinical trial operations is $180B annually.

Diversity is a priority for our team. Historically, clinical research has been terrible about including diverse populations. This is problematic because the efficacy and safety of medicine may differ by age, sex, race, and ethnicity. As a result, we draw healthcare conclusions that don’t actually reflect the outcomes for various groups (source).

Power exists to empower all patients, and that starts with having a diverse team.
