Embedded Product Manager - Healthcare

Percepta•New York, NY

About The Position

As an Embedded Product Manager (EPM)-Healthcare at Percepta, you will collaborate with a team of engineers and researchers to define how healthcare organizations reinvent themselves with AI. EPMs shape AI transformation strategies that executives can believe in, teams are excited by, and that can create outsized value. We care deeply about delivering real outcomes in healthcare: ensuring that products are adopted, loved and scaled, without shying away from the complexity of real data and real users. We are creative problem solvers and relentlessly practical: we continuously iterate towards finding the right long-term and short-term tradeoffs, running experiments to validate value and understanding when to leverage our research team for when we need to push the envelope. As an EPM you’ll also play a huge part in shaping which customers we target, the product abstractions we invest in and the culture of how we build together.

Requirements

Deep subject matter expertise in healthcare—you understand how hospitals run and make money, what risk adjustment means, or how Medicare works. Most importantly, you care deeply about expanding access and effectiveness of our health system.
Proven track record of executing end-to-end on large and complex products in healthcare.
Abstract complex systems into the right level of clarity, whether for end-users, engineers, or executives.
Motivated by working on high leverage, impactful problems in hospital systems, health-enabled services or health-tech.
Exhibit extreme agency and bias towards action. You are fundamentally a “so instead I...” person.
Fundamentally excited about the potential for AI to transform businesses and understand the gap between what is needed and existing offerings (pure product or consulting companies).
Hands-on experience with LLMs, or the drive to quickly get up to speed.

Nice To Haves

Former healthcare or health-tech founders who want high ownership and extremely high leverage outcomes.
Former engineers who are drawn towards scaling their impact in a more product-forward role (while still being able to build the 0→1 prototype on occasion).
Ex-consultants in the Healthcare Practice who enjoy strategy but crave less red tape and more rapid and iterative implementation.
Health-tech product managers who want to work on ambitious problems with high-charisma, generative engineers.
Private Equity Investors or Value Creation team members who believe in the potential of AI to transform our health system and want to roll up their sleeves to do the work themselves.

Responsibilities

Shape and execute the AI vision of a hospital, VBC, or health-tech company while directing a team of world-class researchers and engineers.
Collaborate with customer stakeholders to define their long-term AI strategy and transformation roadmap.
Embed with our customers to understand their priorities and pain points deeply — that could mean interviewing a Chief Clinical Officer about bottle necks, shadowing nurses on the night shift to understand their workflow, or sitting side by side with a social worker as they scroll through documents.
Work backwards from the long-term vision to prioritize specific use cases that connect our ambition to immediate business value.
Design high-value workflows with our engineers and researchers.
Help manage the team and process to ensure we are meeting our goals and commitments to our customers, while creating a motivating and supportive team environment.
Quantify and articulate the business value we deliver to our customers.
Navigate the “human terrain” at our customers—establish project governance structures, befriend stakeholders up and down the org, manage challenging conversations.
Drive change management and product adoption throughout the customer org.
Translate learnings into reusable playbooks, refine our go-to-market motion, and help grow our footprint in healthcare.
