Product Manager, New Programs

About The Position

We’re looking for a Product Manager, New Programs to build net-new experiences in an emerging condition category. This is a true 0→1 role: you’ll start from ambiguous problems, form sharp hypotheses, validate quickly with users and data, and ship experiences that create real member and business impact. You’ll operate as a full-stack builder — equally comfortable shaping UX flows, pressure-testing data models and metrics, and working through technical constraints with engineering. You’ll work closely with clinical, design, engineering, and go-to-market partners to define what we build, why it matters, and how we’ll know it’s working.

Requirements

• ~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.
• 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 Haves

• Experience in digital health, healthcare, or other highly regulated environments.
• 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.

Responsibilities

• 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.

Benefits

• Inclusive healthcare and benefits: On top of comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage, we offer employees and their family members help with gender-affirming care, tools for family and fertility planning, and travel reimbursements if healthcare isn’t available where you live.
• Planning for the future: Start saving for the future with our traditional or Roth 401k retirement plan options which include a 2% company match.
• Modern life stipends: Manage your own learning and development
