Tandem is a generational opportunity to rethink how we bring new therapies to market, and our path to doing so is significantly de-risked – we have:
Exponential organic growth: We have product-market fit and are growing rapidly through word-of-mouth. Tandem supports thousands of patients every day, is doubling doctor users every quarter, and is working with the largest biopharma companies in the world.
An AI-first business model: Our approach is distinctly enabled by AI, but our business will get stronger (not commoditized) as foundation models improve. We are building durability through two-sided network effects that will compound over time.
Top tier investors: With the traction to support conviction in our model, we raised significant funding from investors (including Thrive Capital, General Catalyst, Bain Capital Ventures, and Pear VC) to build an exceptional team of engineers and operators.
Our number one priority is scaling to market demand. We are looking for individuals who are high horsepower, high throughput, and hyper resourceful to help us increase capacity and grow. We move fast and need to move faster.
All full-time roles are in person in New York. You can learn more about working with us in the last section of this page.
As Commercial Development Lead on our team, you will build Tandem’s business with life sciences — leading strategic partnerships with pharmaceutical companies and driving product-led commercialization across our platform. This role plays a key part in how we bring our broader strategy to life. You will be responsible for converting our pipeline into high-impact programs, expanding existing accounts, and helping define how biopharma engages with our data, technology, and provider network.
This is not a transactional sales role. You will serve as a consultative partner to senior stakeholders at life sciences companies — helping them design the programs they need, not just buy what’s on the shelf. You’ll help shape the offerings we bring to market, working closely with product, data, and delivery teams to ensure what we offer is scalable, valuable, and differentiated.
This is a demanding role, with a high level of autonomy and responsibility. You will be expected to "act like an owner" and commit yourself to Tandem's success. If you are low-ego, hungry to learn, and excited about intense, impactful work that drives both company growth and accelerated career progression, we want to hear from you.

Technical background and/or experience working with complex data (at minimum the role requires learning SQL and low-code tools)
Strong written and verbal communication that allows you to be an effective participant in both internal debates and external relationships
