Job Level
About the role
- Own the Care Operations product roadmap end-to-end, including problem identification, prioritization, and delivery
- Own product direction for outreach, intake, authorization, scheduling, and care team tooling
- Define and drive your own roadmap, grounded in real care team needs and aligned with company priorities, rather than executing against a pre-defined backlog
- Partner day-to-day with Engineering, external development partners, and Design to ship, iterate, and improve workflows
- Establish direct feedback loops with care teams, including CHWs, Operations, and Clinical staff
- Define requirements, acceptance criteria, and success metrics for shipped features
- Ensure new tools are adopted, usable, and meaningfully improve how care teams work
- Own stewardship of existing care operations systems, ensuring they are reliable, usable, and not creating unnecessary operational or financial drag

- Own system transition and sunset sequencing for legacy tools within the Care Operations domain, including defining readiness gates and cutover plans
Requirements
- 5+ years of product management experience or equivalent experience owning complex operational systems
- Experience working on healthcare operations, care coordination, or EHR-adjacent products
- Experience managing system transitions, migrations, or vendor sunsets
- Comfort balancing stewardship of existing systems with forward-looking product development
- Strong ability to operate in ambiguous, early-stage environments
- Demonstrated ownership of outcomes, not just delivery of requirements
- Experience partnering closely with Engineering, Design, and Operations teams
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
- Comfort using AI-enabled tooling to accelerate product development and operational workflows.
- Experience with care delivery workflows, value-based care, or Medicaid populations (preferred)
- Familiarity with Athena or similar EHR systems (preferred)
- Experience working with external development partners or vendors (preferred)
- Background in workflow-heavy or operationally complex domains (preferred)
- Experience operating across multiple product teams, maintaining consistency and standards while teams execute independently (preferred)
