about their ability to make an impact.

A Better Way

“I thought there’s got to be a better way to do testing. When I found that the team at Cepheid was creating products and processes that were less centralized and closer to the patient – I jumped on board. Moving it more out of the lab with the ability to work with physicians and doctors is amazing.”

Helping the World

“Our first-of-its-kind COVID-19 test cut detection time from days to hours. As we’re solving all those tough problems, we’ll be doing it in a room full of incredibly smart, funny, passionate humans. I think the Cepheid team is helping the world in a big way, and I’m excited to be on that journey together.”

Rapid Learning & Growth

“DBS tools help guide associates in getting things done, and growing up much, much faster. I would say, because of the tools that are taught as part of Danaher Business System, like duty management, visual management, and PSP, the learning curve and growth has been pretty rapid. And it quickly becomes like second nature to use those tools to help guide you.”

As part of the Danaher family of companies, our work at Cepheid is supported by a global science and technology innovator. In addition to Danaher’s unrivaled leadership training and professional development programs, this relationship also provides expanded career opportunities across industries and brands. Together, we are united by a shared purpose: Helping Realize Life’s Potential.

Make an Impact - On a Global Scale

With a patient-first mindset, our mission is clear: Deliver a better way to improve patient outcomes by enabling access to molecular diagnostic testing everywhere. That is why we are so passionately focused on developing tests for healthcare-associated infections, sexual health, critical infectious disease, virology, and oncology applications. Around the world, Cepheid’s solutions also enable caregivers in developing countries to diagnose highly resistant tuberculosis in minutes instead of weeks, helping to save lives in many regions challenged by healthcare shortages.

Innovation Everywhere: Fighting the COVID-19 Outbreak

Though I joined Danaher in 2018, I first heard about the company years earlier, during a case study in one of my business school classes. I was immediately intrigued by the model of not only acquiring but also improving great businesses, rather than selling them off. At the time, however, I had no idea I would become a member of the team.
