Requirements
  • You have 2 to 5+ years of Product Management experience or similar, ideally spent in the trenches with healthcare providers. If you’ve navigated the complexities of AI, robotics, medical imaging, or sophisticated software, you’re already speaking our language.
  • You have a proven track record of collaborating with engineers and customers, translating high-level objectives into concrete technical realities.
  • High-EQ Leadership: You possess the emotional intelligence to build trust across diverse teams, from surgeons in the field to developers at HQ. You actively catalyze relationships and build rapport easily.
  • Strategic Autonomy: You are self-motivated and independent, with a sharp analytical mind that can dissect market data as easily as it can refine a value proposition.
  • Articulate Storyteller: Your written and verbal communication is top-tier. You can command a room during a presentation and simplify the complex in cloud-based collaboration tools.
  • Startup Versatility: You thrive in a small-team environment where no task is too big or too small. You’re agile, adaptable, and ready to wear multiple hats.
Responsibilities
  • Immerse yourself in the clinical context in which we operate, via conducting market analysis, customer and stakeholder interviews, ethnographic studies, and user testing
  • Develop deep clinical understanding of the clinical environments and procedures in which our platform is being used today – and will be used tomorrow
  • Become an expert on the product, allowing you to help define and refine the product roadmap, including effective upstream needs-finding, value proposition refinement, and feature set prioritization
  • Partner with commercial and engineering teams to translate user and business requirements into technical specifications, and managing trade offs during development
  • Define and track success metrics across entire product development lifecycle
