## Job description

Primary Function of Position The Senior Market Development Manager is a market-facing commercial leader for new indications, customer bases, markets and platforms — operating across the full spectrum from product development through early commercialization. This role builds early go-to-market strategy, validates product market fit, ensures the commercial perspective informs upstream decisions, and builds the market infrastructure required for successful future Intuitive launches.

This individual will focus on GI and endosurgical innovation. This role is deeply integrated with engineering, product, clinical, regulatory, market access and corporate strategy teams in both existing business units and future forward— serving as the commercial anchor in cross-functional forums and embedding market insight into product, clinical evidence, and market access roadmaps. Success requires equal fluency and trust in the external market and the internal development cycle.

The Senior Market Development Manager works directly with physicians, hospital executives, payers, and societies to identify unmet needs and shape clinical and commercial strategy. Where markets must be created rather than captured, this role is tasked with designing strategies to shift patient pathways, referral patterns, and clinical beliefs to unlock demand and accelerate commercial success.
