After that success, Tully-Cintron joined Genentech, Inc. as their Director of Strategy and Business Operations, Site Services, where he was responsible for leading an internal consulting team dedicated to providing world class support to the Site Services organization consisting of Facility Operations, Environmental Health and Safety, Security, Capital and Space Planning and Governance.
