Senior Product Manager

About the role

As a Senior Product Manager at Iterative Health, you'll own a strategic portion of our product roadmap, leading initiatives across patient pre-screening, enrollment, and clinical site operations. You'll partner closely with engineering, design, clinical operations, and customers to identify opportunities, validate hypotheses through data, and deliver products that solve meaningful, real-world challenges for research sites and the patients they serve.

Responsibilities

• Own initiatives end-to-end: frame the problem, define what success looks like, drive discovery, scope and sequence the work, and see it through to a shipped, measurable outcome.
• Own the roadmap for your function — set the direction, make prioritization calls, and be accountable for what it delivers.
• Work closely with product leadership to ensure your work fits the larger picture and contributes to Iterative Health's platform strategy.
• Work directly with operational and patient data: query, interpret, and pressure-test findings to size opportunities, define the metrics that matter, and confirm whether what you shipped actually moved them.
• Bring quantitative rigor to every product decision — distinguishing meaningful results from merely interesting ones.
• Bring signal back to the broader product organization: what you're learning in the field, where the data points, and which capabilities to bet on next.
• Partner with Engineering and Data Science as a credible peer who can engage on technical tradeoffs directly.
• Ground every product decision in a real understanding of clinical trial operations and the regulatory constraints that shape what's possible.
• Lead publications and help build Iterative Health's scientific profile — turning the work and the data behind it into credibility with sponsors, sites, and the broader research community.
• Treat compliance and governance (HIPAA, GxP, sponsor data agreements) as a core design input from the start, not an afterthought.

Requirements

• 6+ years of product management experience or equivalent, with a track record of leading initiatives end-to-end — from ambiguous problem through shipped, measured outcome.
• Working knowledge of clinical trial operations and the regulatory requirements that govern them (GCP/ICH, FDA/EMA, patient data privacy) — this is a requirement, not a nice-to-have.
• Hands-on comfort with data: ability to independently query, interpret, and reason about operational and patient data to frame problems and measure results; SQL fluency or equivalent expected.
• Strong quantitative instincts and the judgment to distinguish a meaningful result from a merely interesting one.
• Demonstrated ability to work as a peer with engineers and data scientists, and to be equally effective with non-technical clinical and operational stakeholders.
• Excellent written and verbal communication; a structured thinker who can move between a deep technical conversation and a clinical workflow conversation in the same hour.
• Comfortable operating in a fast-moving, ambiguous environment without waiting for permission or a perfect spec.

Preferred Qualifications

• Direct experience in clinical research, life sciences, or another regulated healthcare domain.
• Familiarity with EMR and CTMS systems and healthcare data standards (e.g., FHIR, OMOP).
• Experience shipping AI- or ML-powered product capabilities, with good judgment about where they fit and where they don't.
• Experience at a growth-stage startup.
• A track record of working with messy, real-world clinical data and making it useful without pretending it's clean.

• Hybrid work environment with in-office collaboration two days per week in either our NYC, Southlake or Boston office
• Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage, with up to 80% of premiums covered by Iterative Health
