## Job Description

## What You’ll Do

**Ramp fast in a new domain**
- Quickly build a deep, structured understanding of user needs, clinical context, and product opportunities without waiting for perfect information.
- Form a clear point of view, update it as you learn, and communicate it crisply to stakeholders.

**Lead discovery & validation**
- Identify high-value, unmet user problems and size the opportunity.
- Design lean tests (prototypes, pilots, experiments) to validate the core assumptions before we commit.
- Synthesize qualitative and quantitative signal into clear recommendations and next steps.

**Drive 0→1 execution**
- Translate validated directions into shippable product experiences without an existing playbook.
- Make hard, principled trade-offs under time and resource constraints, protecting what’s truly critical for user value and clinical quality.
- Work hand-in-hand with engineering, design, and clinical partners to get high-quality releases out the door quickly.

**Influence across functions and levels**
- Navigate the “seams” of the organization — picking up work where ownership is unclear, unblocking dependencies, and creating alignment where it doesn’t yet exist.
- Engage senior stakeholders with a clear, structured point of view, including when you’re advocating for an unpopular or contrarian position.

**Make data central to decisions**
- Write crisp hypotheses with clear success criteria and leading/lagging indicators.
- Partner with Data and Engineering to stand up the right instrumentation and reporting when infrastructure is limited.
- Use data to change direction, not just to confirm it.

## Who You Are

**Background & Experience**
- ~5–8 years of experience in product management or highly relevant roles (e.g., business operations, strategy, consulting, or “founder/operator” roles) where you owned outcomes end-to-end — not just execution of a predefined roadmap.
- Demonstrated experience launching something net-new: starting from an unclear problem, building a hypothesis, validating it with real users, and shipping a product or feature to market.
- You’ve worked in environments with ambiguous ownership and incomplete information, and you’re comfortable creating structure rather than waiting for it.

**Super Strengths**
- **Structured judgment & learning velocity**: You make confident calls without perfect information and know how to close the gaps fast. You seek out the “deep end” — new domains and messy problems — and can articulate what you got wrong and how you’d approach it differently next time.
- **High-signal product intuition**: You have a strong sense for where real user friction and business opportunity live, and you think in expected value, not just feature ideas. You right-size solutions: you don’t over-engineer before validating the core assumption.
- **Relentless, creative execution**: “That’s not possible” is a prompt, not a stop sign. You find another path that respects constraints while still moving the ball forward. You act with urgency and extreme ownership, stepping outside a narrow PM lane when needed to get critical work shipped.
- **Cross-functional influence**: You earn trust by being clear, consistent, and reliable. You can both push back and change your mind: you explain your reasoning, are transparent about trade-offs, and know when to hold your ground vs. when new information should move you.

**Nice to Have**
- Experience in digital health, healthcare, or other highly regulated environments.
- Background that matches one of these archetypes: Business operations / strategy / consulting → product, with a track record of owning outcomes, or Scrappy startup PM/operator who has repeatedly brought new products to market with limited resources.
