About the Role

Location: New York City or Remote.

Sailor is looking for a Founding Product Manager to join as an early product leader. This is a ground-floor opportunity to define and launch AI-first products from scratch at a startup with extreme PMF.

💻 Your Key Responsibilities
  • Drive product execution end-to-end: As Sailor’s first and only product manager, act as the central bridge across founders, engineering, design, and clinical teams. Own prioritization, define success metrics, and drive rapid iteration from insight to shipped product.

  • Build AI coaches for patients: Create AI voice-powered coaches that support cognitive health, mindfulness, and overall wellness, helping patients stay engaged between sessions, practice therapeutic techniques, and build healthy routines in a natural, conversational way.

  • Build AI care agents for our healthcare providers: Build and scale AI-native features including speech-to-text triage, care navigation copilots, auto-summarized progress notes, and intelligent intake.

  • Build our clinical operations layer: Architect and ship the backbone of our care delivery engine, spanning patient scheduling, documentation, and revenue cycle management, leveraging best-in-class healthcare APIs to deliver a seamless and scalable clinical operation.

 
Ideal Qualifications & Skills

  • You’re product-driven. You have strong intuition for user needs, high EQ, and a deep curiosity to understand the underlying business and clinical problems, not just the technical solution.

  • You’re AI-native. You instinctively think in terms of LLMs, agents, and automation, and are driven to push the frontier of how AI can transform healthcare.

  • You thrive in ambiguity. You thrive in ambiguity. You’re energized by open-ended problems and move quickly with imperfect information.
