Full Job Description
What We're Looking For

Datavant is building the infrastructure that makes health information more connected, useful, and accessible when it matters most. In our Legal & Insurance vertical, that means helping attorneys, copy services, insurers, and other requesters retrieve the right medical records faster, understand what is inside them, and move high-stakes decisions forward with confidence.

We're looking for a Staff Product Manager to define and lead the product strategy for Datavant's Legal & Insurance vertical. This is an individual contributor role who can operate at multiple altitudes: setting long-term vision, shaping product architecture, influencing executive investment decisions, and still diving deep into workflows, data, AI, operations, and customer pain.

This vertical is early, strategically important, and full of hard product problems. Medical record retrieval for legal and insurance use cases are complex, fragmented, and time-sensitive. Requesters need transparency, reliability, speed, completeness, and increasingly, intelligent tools that help them understand large volumes of clinical information. Providers and partners need scalable, compliant workflows. Datavant has the opportunity to bring these pieces together into a more connected, modern product experience.

In this role, you will define what the Legal & Insurance product suite becomes. You'll work across engineering, data science, operations, design, commercial teams, and executive leadership to build the vertical from the ground up. You'll shape the underlying workflows, data models, integrations, platform logic, and AI-enabled experiences that power record retrieval and downstream analysis. You'll make strategic tradeoffs, bring clarity to ambiguity, and create durable product systems that can scale across customer segments and use cases.

This is a rare opportunity for a Staff PM to build a new business line inside a company with deep healthcare data infrastructure, real customer demand, and meaningful room for product innovation. The right person will be energized by complex systems, high-stakes user needs, and the chance to build at the intersection of healthcare, law, insurance, data, and AI.

What You Will Do
  • Define the long-term product vision, strategy, roadmap, and success metrics for Datavant's Legal & Insurance vertical.
  • Translate a complex, fragmented market into a coherent product strategy across requester experience, retrieval workflows, fulfillment, integrations, and record analysis.
  • Shape the product architecture for a new vertical, including workflows, data models, platform capabilities, partner integrations, and AI-enabled experiences.
  • Partner with executive leadership to evaluate opportunities, set priorities, guide investment decisions, and align the organization around the highest-impact work.
  • Build scalable products for attorneys, copy services, insurers, and other requesters across both enterprise and small/mid-sized customer segments.
  • Work deeply with engineering, data science, analytics, operations, design, and commercial teams to move from strategy to execution.
  • Identify where operational friction should become product capability, and where custom workflows should become scalable platform patterns.
  • Develop AI-powered tools that help users extract, summarize, structure, and act on insights from complex medical records.
  • Establish the metrics, feedback loops, and operating rhythms needed to improve retrieval speed, completeness, transparency, quality, customer satisfaction, and operational efficiency.
  • Serve as a product thought leader for the vertical and a mentor to other PMs, raising the bar for product strategy, systems thinking, customer insight, and execution.

What You Need to Succeed
  • 8-12+ years of product management experience, with a track record of leading complex, enterprise-grade, data-centric products.
  • Demonstrated ability to define product strategy in ambiguous spaces and influence company-level direction, not just deliver a roadmap.
  • Experience building products that combine workflow, data, integrations, operations, and user experience into scalable systems.
  • Strong systems thinking: you can understand messy, real-world workflows and turn them into simple, durable product architecture.
  • Experience working with healthcare data, data exchange, retrieval, workflow automation, platform products, or regulated data products.
  • Bonus points for experience in legal, insurance, medical record retrieval, claims, risk adjustment, clinical data, or AI-enabled document analysis.
  • Comfort designing products in highly regulated, high-stakes environments where accuracy, timeliness, compliance, privacy, and trust all matter.
  • Strong technical fluency and credibility with engineering, data science, and analytics teams.
  • Ability to use data, customer insight, and business judgment to make hard prioritization and investment decisions.
  • Executive-level communication skills: you can distill complexity, frame tradeoffs, and influence senior leaders, technical teams, operations teams, and commercial stakeholders.
  • You create clarity, raise the strategic altitude of the team, mentor others, and still roll up your sleeves to get important work across the finish line.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset: you thrive in ambiguity, learn quickly, make pragmatic tradeoffs, and build momentum even when the path is not obvious.
  • Collaborative, low-ego leadership style with a track record of building trust across functions and contributing to a high-performing culture.
