- Mentor and coach junior and intermediate product owners, fostering professional growth and promoting best practices.
- Drive strategic R&D initiatives across multiple development teams and projects.
- Guide development teams by answering questions, defining priorities, identifying opportunities for incremental delivery, and removing roadblocks.
- Represent the product team in leadership-level discussions, influencing strategic decisions and providing progress updates.
- Facilitate collaboration across teams through proactive communication, conflict resolution, and stakeholder management.

Qualifications- Bachelor's degree in engineering, design, product marketing, management, UX, product analytics, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
- 8+ years of experience in product development, with a proven track record of launching and managing successful products.
- Deep expertise in Agile methodologies and software development lifecycles.
- Strategic thinker with strong analytical skills and critical thinking abilities.
- Deep understanding of the market and competitive landscape, enabling informed product decisions.
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills, capable of influencing stakeholders at all levels.
- Proficiency in design tools (e.g., Figma) and software management tools (e.g., Jira, Confluence).
- Experience in building large-scale product solutions with third-party system integrations.
- Ability to navigate complex stakeholder dynamics and align teams to drive impactful product outcomes.
- Experience working with electronic medical records (EMRs), clinical workflows, and patient engagement tools.
