• Build lightweight business cases and investment recommendations for major features, enhancements, or product area improvements.
• Partner with engineering, design, clinical, data, security, compliance, customer success, implementation, marketing, and sales to deliver outcomes through the delivery team.
• Define and monitor KPIs such as adoption, engagement, workflow impact, quality, retention risk, revenue enablement, or operational efficiency.
• Influence go-to-market, support readiness, enablement, and customer communication for the assigned product area.
• Evangelize product priorities and customer insight with cross-functional partners so teams understand the problem, direction, and intended outcome.
• Establish and refine product management practices, backlog governance, or delivery approaches that improve execution quality and consistency within the assigned product domain.
• Mentor less experienced Product Managers through informal coaching, review of product work, and example-setting.
• Apply AI-assisted product workflows to discovery, synthesis, prototyping, workflow analysis, technical collaboration, and product definition.

What We're Looking For:

• Bachelor’s degree in Business, Computer Science, Engineering, Healthcare Administration, Information Systems, Human-Centered Design, or a related field; or equivalent practical experience.
• At least 6 years of relevant professional experience in product management or equivalent product ownership experience.

• Knowledge of HL7© FHIR Implementation Guides for Coverage Requirements Discovery (CRD), Documentation Templates & Rules (DTR), and Prior Authorization Support (PAS) is strongly preferred
• Ability to write clear product requirements for complex product areas and guide delivery teams through prioritization and delivery.
• Sound judgment when customer needs, revenue opportunity, usability, compliance, data quality, security, technical constraints, and delivery capacity are in tension.
• Demonstrated experience owning a significant product area, major capability, or roadmap domain through the full product lifecycle.
• Strong experience leading customer discovery and synthesis of ambiguous input, workflow analysis, market research, competitive analysis, and prioritization for moderately complex product initiatives.
• Experience developing business cases, defining success metrics, and using qualitative and quantitative data to guide product decisions.
