Full Job Description

đź“‹ Description

  • • Transform complex cardiovascular clinical-trial data into clear, compelling scientific narratives that influence global medical practice. You will craft abstracts, slide decks, and full-length manuscripts that are submitted to top-tier journals and presented at major international conferences, directly shaping how physicians adopt life-saving Penumbra technologies.
  • • Own the end-to-end publication process: interpret raw study outputs, build story arcs with biostatisticians, negotiate authorship with physician investigators, shepherd documents through internal review, and manage journal submissions—meeting aggressive timelines that often parallel regulatory filings.
  • • Serve as the linchpin between Clinical Research, Regulatory Affairs, R&D, and Marketing, translating regulatory language into marketing-ready science and vice-versa. Your work ensures that every claim is evidence-based and every dataset is ethically and compliantly communicated.
  • • Build and maintain a living library of clinical literature and citation databases, conducting systematic literature searches to benchmark new data against the global evidence base and to identify gaps that future trials should address.
  • • Create and continuously refine templates, style guides, and SOPs that raise the bar for scientific writing across the company. You will also mentor junior writers and train cross-functional partners, embedding quality and consistency into every communication touchpoint.
  • • Lead cross-functional project reviews as the subject-matter expert on clinical-study teams, translating protocol endpoints into dissemination milestones and ensuring that data-release timelines align with regulatory, commercial, and competitive-intelligence goals.
  • • Uphold Penumbra’s Quality Management System (QMS) and global regulatory standards (ISO 14155, GCP, GVP, FDA/EMA guidance) in every deliverable. You will audit your own work and that of colleagues, ensuring traceability, version control, and risk mitigation.
  • • Communicate daily with world-renowned cardiologists, interventional neuroradiologists, and key opinion leaders—translating their clinical insights into publication-ready language while preserving their authentic voice and scientific integrity.
  • • Contribute to conference strategy: identify target congresses (TCT, ISC, ACC, ESMINT), manage submission calendars, and coordinate with creative teams to turn dense clinical data into visually engaging podium and poster presentations.
  • • Remain agile in a fast-moving, remote-first environment. You will juggle multiple late-phase and post-market studies simultaneously, reprioritize on the fly, and deliver flawless documents under tight deadlines—all while collaborating seamlessly with colleagues across time zones.
  • • Travel up to 10 % to Alameda HQ, regional investigator meetings, and major medical congresses, capturing real-time feedback from clinicians and ensuring on-site support for data presentations.

🎯 Requirements

  • • Advanced degree (MS, PhD, or MD) plus 2+ years of medical-writing experience in the medical-device, biotech, or pharmaceutical industry; OR 5+ years of medical-writing experience in clinical scientific research.
  • • Demonstrated portfolio of published peer-reviewed manuscripts and/or congress abstracts, preferably in cardiovascular or neurovascular therapeutic areas.
  • • Exceptional command of scientific English, with meticulous attention to data integrity, statistical interpretation, and regulatory compliance.
  • • Proficiency in Microsoft Office 365 and familiarity with publication-management tools (e.g., EndNote, Datavision, Veeva PubManager) preferred.
  • • Authorization to work in the U.S. without sponsorship now or in the future.

🏖️ Benefits

  • • Competitive annual base salary of $99 k–$135 k, plus annual performance bonus and equity participation through employee stock purchase plan.
  • • Comprehensive benefits package: medical, dental, vision, life, AD&D, short- and long-term disability, 401(k) with employer match, paid parental leave, and 11 paid holidays plus 15+ days of accrued vacation that grows with tenure.
  • • Remote-first culture with flexible scheduling, home-office stipend, and up to 10 % travel to vibrant company events and global medical congresses.
  • • Opportunity to revolutionize treatment for stroke, aneurysm, and other devastating diseases alongside world-class clinicians and researchers.
