Senior Program Manager

New York, NY; Pittsburgh, PA

Blink Health is the fastest growing healthcare technology company that builds products to make prescriptions accessible and affordable to everybody. Our two primary products – BlinkRx and Quick Save – remove traditional roadblocks within the current prescription supply chain, resulting in better access to critical medications and improved health outcomes for patients. BlinkRx is the world's first pharma-to-patient cloud that offers a digital concierge service for patients who are prescribed branded medications. Patients benefit from transparent low prices, free home delivery, and world-class support on this first-of-its-kind centralized platform. With BlinkRx, never again will a patient show up at the pharmacy only to discover that they can't afford their medication, their doctor needs to fill out a form for them, or the pharmacy doesn't have the medication in stock. We are a highly collaborative team of builders and operators who invent new ways of working in an industry that historically has resisted innovation. Join us!

The Role — Senior Program Manager (Patient Services Operations)

The Patient Services Operations (PSO) team is central to Blink's ability to deliver affordable medications and a best-in-class patient experience at scale. As the business grows in client complexity, product surface area, and operational volume, disciplined cross-functional execution is increasingly critical. The Program Management function within PSO ensures high-impact initiatives translate into operationally sound, scalable execution. The team drives structured planning, stakeholder alignment, risk management, and governance across client onboarding, product launches, go-to-market initiatives, and scaling efforts. Program Management serves as the connective tissue across Operations, Product, Engineering, Growth, and other internal partners—ensuring strategic priorities are delivered with clarity, accountability, and operational rigor.

The Senior Program Manager, Patient Services Operations will lead complex, cross-functional initiatives end-to-end, serving as the single-threaded owner for operational readiness and execution. This role ensures launches are delivered on time, stakeholders remain aligned, risks are proactively mitigated, and durable operational frameworks are built to support scale. Success in this role requires a seasoned, hands-on execution leader with strong systems thinking—able to create clarity in ambiguity, connect cross-functional interdependencies, anticipate downstream impacts, and drive alignment without authority while embedding repeatable program management standards across PSO and partner teams.

This will be an on-site position based within our Pittsburgh, PA office.

• Ensure full operational readiness across workflows, product solutions, training, and operational capacity.

• Develop executive-ready reporting that provides visibility into progress, tradeoffs, and business impact.
• Partner with leadership to establish and maintain strong governance frameworks (status reporting, risk and issue management, escalation pathways, change control).

Escalation Ownership & Systemic Issue Resolution

• Serve as the central owner for operations-related client/field escalations.
• Conduct root cause analysis and drive durable cross-functional remediation.
• Identify and analyze recurring issues through a systems lens to address root causes, not symptoms, and drive durable cross-functional fixes.

• Standardize and scale launch and delivery best practices to support increasing volume and complexity.
• Identify structural impediments to scale and partner with leadership to prioritize, design, and operationalize solutions.
• Continuously enhance program management frameworks within PSO to improve speed, quality, and predictability of delivery.

• Hands-on experience working at the intersection of Operations, Product, Engineering, Growth/Sales, Data, and Knowledge Management.
• Technical fluency bridging business and engineering teams to define requirements, shape solutions, and inform roadmaps; comfortable using data and strategic context to guide prioritization and tradeoffs.
