In 2001 he worked as an oncology sales specialist for AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals. By 2003 he was a territory manager for Cytogen Corporation. Those roles put him into frequent contact with clinical teams and regulatory frameworks.

In 2007 he served as a legal intern with the Montgomery County District Attorney’s Office and took an externship at Pepper Hamilton LLP. That same year he worked at Fisher Zucker LLC. The following year he completed his J.D. and transitioned into public service.
In 2009 Hyde joined the Bucks County District Attorney’s Office as a deputy district attorney. He handled prosecutorial responsibilities there before shifting to defense work. By 2014 he was practicing as a trial lawyer focused on criminal defense. His courtroom work spans arraignments, hearings and jury trials.
