Senior Product Manager, Retrievals Operations

Datavant is a data platform company for healthcare whose products and solutions enable organizations to move and connect data securely. We hire for three traits: we want people who are smart, nice, and get things done. We invest in our people and believe in hiring for high-potential and humble individuals who can rapidly grow their responsibilities as the company scales. Datavant is a distributed, remote-friendly team, and we empower Datavanters to shape their working environment in a way that suits their needs.

The Role:

We’re looking for an experienced product manager with a strong preference toward building and transforming enterprise software and internal tools. You’re excited about the idea of transformation; you love the toughest challenges, dig into any problem with curiosity and an open mindset, and like operating at all levels of an organization, both horizontally and vertically. Improving your craft of product discovery and delivery with low ego are table stakes.

As the first Senior Product Manager for Datavant’s Retrieval Operations, your goal will be to ensure that our internal users and external users’ needs are well-served by our core products for our payer clients by empowering our retrieval operations team. At its heart, this work is about ensuring the secure and compliant exchange of health information across thousands of provider groups (health systems, clinics, MSOs, etc), and doing so in an efficient, accurate and seamless way for our payer clients. This pod is central to orchestrating the interplay of digital and manual workflows at the core of healthcare information exchange.

We’re looking for a technically-minded product manager who can work collaboratively with engineers, product managers, and operations partners to gather insights on user needs and ship innovative functionality that achieves operational and financial efficiency goals. You will also think through longer-term product strategy and how components of our extensive product can be leveraged for other uses as well as scale with our growth. An interest in or understanding of data flows, operational workflows, process transformation, data regulations, and data technology in healthcare is necessary.

You might not like this role if:

Like with any role, this one isn’t for everyone. We want to outline why you might dislike the role, though for the right candidate we anticipate that these are reasons you are interested in the role. 

• If you dislike operating within a highly regulated segment where product insights can be found in the pages of dry regulatory text
• You prefer to not work on products which require the utmost attention paid to security and compliance
• You prefer consumer technology to enterprise infrastructure
• You are not excited about operational transformation driven by product and process improvements
• You do not like the idea of working on improving complex manual processes, infrastructure, and workflows that drive key business

Your first 30 days will include:

• Learning all about the core business of information exchange / release of information in healthcare
• Defining the charter of this pod with product, engineering, and operations stakeholders
• Collaborating with product, engineering, and operations stakeholders to define this pod’s 2025 (and beyond) roadmap
• Shipping several key improvements that’ll positively impact tens of millions of patients’ lives
• Solidifying ways of working with your engineering and operations partners

What you bring to the table:

• 5-7 years of product management experience in tech-forward companies
• An ability to drive direction, even when you are not the functional expert yet
• ​​Able to structure problems, develop clear problem statements and hypothesis, and prioritize work using business understanding and data
• Strong stakeholder management and communication skills; consistently keep teams updated on product strategy and progress
• Experience collaborating with Engineering, Design and Operations stakeholders to build enterprise-wide platform products and internal tools
• Experience in the healthcare provider / payer / services industry
• Experience coming up to speed in a regulated industry, inexplicable desire to read and grapple with regulations
• Kindness, smartness, and the ability to Get Things Done
