About The Position

Datavant is a data platform company and the world’s leader in health data exchange. Our vision is that every healthcare decision is powered by the right data, at the right time, in the right format. Our platform is powered by the largest, most diverse health data network in the U.S., enabling data to be secure, accessible and usable to inform better health decisions. Datavant is trusted by the world’s leading life sciences companies, government agencies, and those who deliver and pay for care. By joining Datavant today, you’re stepping onto a high-performing, values-driven team. Together, we’re rising to the challenge of tackling some of healthcare’s most complex problems with technology-forward solutions. Datavanters bring a diversity of professional, educational and life experiences to realize our bold vision for healthcare. Role Overview As Senior Product Manager, you will own the foundational platform, workflow, and infrastructure capabilities that power Datavant’s retrospective coding and reporting ecosystem. This role is responsible for building and evolving foundational services and infrastructure while sitting at the center of Datavant’s coding architecture, connecting data ingestion and ML platforms to in-app experiences. The scope of work includes reports, internal tooling & interfaces, in-app dashboards, reference data management, user management and maintenance of backend infrastructure and services. Success in this role often looks invisible when things work and immediately critical when they don’t. You will navigate competing priorities across products, modernize legacy systems while supporting live operations, and build platforms that enable others to move faster. The ideal candidate combines deep healthcare data expertise with strong product management skills, and thrives at the intersection of product, data integration, analytics, engineering, and operations, balancing delivery velocity with scalability, performance, reliability, and long-term platform health. If you enjoy solving complex systems problems, influencing without direct authority, and building foundations that scale, this role offers outsized impact.

Requirements

• Experience: 5+ years in product management or data product roles, ideally within healthcare. Must possess strong knowledge of product development practices and SDLC. Proven ownership of platform, infrastructure, or data-heavy systems
• Domain Expertise: Well-versed in the key underlying healthcare data sources that support risk adjustment coding, including standards such as HL7, FHIR, CMS files, etc.

• Product Execution: Drive end-to-end execution of the Coding Core roadmap by translating complex, cross-product needs into clear initiatives; partner closely with Engineering and DevOps to sequence work, manage dependencies, make pragmatic tradeoffs, and ensure reliable delivery across shared services and infrastructure.
• Partnership with Product Design: Partner with Product Design to shape intuitive, scalable experiences for internal tools and platform surfaces (e.g., reporting delivery interface), ensuring complex systems and data are surfaced in ways that are usable, consistent, and aligned with user needs while balancing UX investments with platform priorities.
• Scalability: Ensure systems, reporting and analytics are scalable, performant, observable, and reliable under high-throughput, stateful workloads. Improve observability, traceability, and operational tooling. Reduce manual interventions, support burden, and platform fragility
• Stakeholder Management: Act as the primary product point of contact across Product, Engineering, Operations, aligning diverse stakeholders on priorities, tradeoffs, and delivery timelines; proactively manage expectations, surface risks early, and drive decisions across teams with competing needs.
