## Job description

Veeva Systems is a mission-driven organization and pioneer in industry cloud, helping life sciences companies bring therapies to patients faster. As one of the fastest-growing SaaS companies in history, we surpassed $3B in revenue in our last fiscal year with extensive growth potential ahead.

At the heart of Veeva are our values: Do the Right Thing, Customer Success, Employee Success, and Speed. We're not just any public company – we made history in 2021 by becoming a public benefit corporation (PBC), legally bound to balancing the interests of customers, employees, society, and investors.

Join us in transforming the life sciences industry, committed to making a positive impact on its customers, employees, and communities.

## The Role

We are building a dedicated AI practice within Veeva China’s Business Consulting team. This is a unique opportunity to be a founding member of a squad that leads the deployment of Veeva’s next-generation AI Agents. You will not just deliver projects; you will shape how Artificial Intelligence is applied in the Life Sciences industry. We need hybrids - people who can define a business strategy with a VP of Sales, and then roll up their sleeves to tune prompts and configure agents to make that strategy a reality.

## What You’ll Do

- AI Strategy & Use Case Definition: Partner with Pharma commercial leaders to identify high-value AI scenarios. Translate vague business pain points into concrete AI Use Cases.
- Lead AI Implementation Projects: Act as the Project Lead for Veeva AI deployments. You will bridge the gap between our Technical Implementation team and the client’s business stakeholders, ensuring the AI solution solves the actual business problem.
- Hands-on Prompt Engineering & Tuning: This is a technical consulting role. You are expected to take ownership of the AI's output quality. You will perform prompt engineering, test context windows, and refine system instructions to ensure the AI Agents speak the language of the client and deliver accurate, safe responses.
- Product Feedback Loop: You are the "eyes and ears" on the ground. You will work closely with Veeva’s Global and China Product teams. By testing AI Agents in real-world scenarios, you will identify gaps, propose feature enhancements, and drive the continuous iteration of our AI product roadmap.
- Change Management for AI: AI requires a new way of working. You will guide client teams on how to interact with AI agents effectively, building trust and ensuring adoption among field reps and marketing teams.

## Requirements

- Experience: 3+ years of experience in Management Consulting, CRM Product Management, or Technology Solutioning, with a recent focus on Generative AI or Digital Transformation.
- Technical Fluency (GenAI): Strong conceptual understanding of LLMs (Large Language Models), RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation), and Agents.
- Hands-on Skill: Demonstrated experience in Prompt Engineering. You should be comfortable iterating on prompts to improve accuracy, tone, and logic. (Experience with tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, or API-based testing is required).
- Business Acumen: Ability to understand complex Commercial and Medical processes in the Life Sciences industry.
- Language: Native Mandarin and fluent English.

## Nice to Have

- Basic coding skills (Python) to understand data structures or run simple API tests.
- Experience dealing with Data Governance, Privacy, and Compliance in an AI context.

- **Entity Type**: Public (NYSE: VEEV), converted to a Public Benefit Corporation (PBC) in February 2021 — the first public company to do so

- **Founded**: 2007

## Core Business

- **Target customers**: B2B enterprise — pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical device companies; over 1,000 customers globally
- **Mission/purpose**: "Building the Industry Cloud for Life Sciences" — helping the industry become more efficient and effective so it can focus on creating quality products in shorter time frames while maintaining compliance

## Products & Services
- **Veeva Vault Platform**: The core cloud platform with applications for Clinical, Regulatory, Quality, and Safety — consolidating critical processes in one central system to accelerate study timelines, streamline regulatory processes, and unify quality and safety operations.
- **Veeva AI**: Agentic AI added to the Veeva Vault platform, with deep, industry-specific agents for Veeva applications — designed to connect sponsors, sites, patients, and regulators more effectively and increase industry productivity.
- **Commercial Solutions**: Applications, data, and analytics for marketing and commercial teams to maximize campaign performance.
- **Consulting Services**: Business consulting alongside software, data, and AI to support customers' most critical business processes from R&D through commercialization.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Publicly traded (NYSE: VEEV); specific market cap not stated in cited sources.
- **Key Metric**: 975+ customers (careers site) / 1,000+ customers (corporate site); close to 8,000 employees at end of fiscal 2026.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Industry-specific depth**: Unlike generic enterprise software, Veeva is built exclusively for the highly regulated life sciences industry, covering the full value chain from clinical through commercial.
- **Public Benefit Corporation structure**: Legally obligated to balance shareholder interests with customers, employees, partners, the life sciences industry, and communities — a durable differentiator in talent and customer trust.
- **Scale and switching costs**: Deep integration across R&D, quality, regulatory, and commercial workflows for over 1,000 customers creates significant lock-in.
- **No non-compete agreements**: Veeva does not require employees to sign non-competes and has taken legal action to fight their unfair use — a strong cultural and recruiting advantage.
- **Clear values in priority order**: Do the Right Thing, Customer Success, Employee Success, Speed.

## Strategic Focus
- **Industry cloud expansion**: Continuing to build out the full industry cloud — software, AI, data, and consulting — to become "essential to and appreciated by" the life sciences industry.
- **Veeva AI rollout**: Making agentic AI a transformative layer across the Vault platform to increase innovation and productivity from drug development through commercialization.
- **High-quality job creation**: Investing in people with tech-enabled hiring tools, manager training (with direct CEO involvement), and fair, flexible employment — while maintaining steady, measured growth without significant layoffs.
- **Long-term durable growth**: Operating as a PBC with a commitment to the life sciences industry's critical functions.

## Why Work Here
- **Work Anywhere policy**: Employees can work from home or the office on any given day; product teams are organized in regional hubs (Pleasanton, Columbus, Boston, Kansas City, New York City, Raleigh, Toronto) with regular in-person collaboration.
- **Culture and values**: Collaborative environment where employees are "treated with respect" and supported to "captain their own ship" toward growth; values are explicitly prioritized: Do the Right Thing, Customer Success, Employee Success, Speed.
- **Giving back**: 1% Veeva Giving program — each employee receives an amount equal to 1% of their base salary annually to donate to non-profits of their choice; giving is entirely employee-driven.
- **Equity for employees**: Equity program designed so the vast majority of employees participate and benefit financially in the company's growth.
- **No non-compete clauses**: Employees are free to work where they choose, and the company actively fights unfair non-compete practices in the industry.
- **Stability with growth**: "Measured and thoughtful" hiring that has historically avoided significant layoffs, with net headcount growth of 637 in fiscal 2026.
- **Meaningful work**: Directly supports life sciences companies in their mission to improve and extend life.
