Product Lead

Product Lead (first dedicated product hire) at a pre-Series A healthcare AI SaaS company in New York City.

About the company

We are hiring on behalf of a VC-backed, New York based enterprise vertical SaaS company that builds the operational system of record for frontline hospital leaders, such as nurse managers and unit executives. The product replaces spreadsheets, sticky notes and group chats with one system of work, integrates with EHR and HR systems, and is already live at large US health systems.

The company has raised about $7M, has 11 employees, and the team works directly with both co-founders and the Head of Engineering.

About the role

This is the first dedicated Product Lead. You will report to the CEO and co-founder and own the loop from customer to product: take what CNOs, CIOs and frontline leaders tell the team, decide what matters, and turn it into clear requirements engineering can build quickly.

You will run product like a general manager, owning the roadmap, deciding which requests reach engineering, and tying every roadmap decision to revenue, retention and buyer value. You will prototype yourself rather than only write specs.

What you will do

• Own the product roadmap and the business metrics tracked against features
• Write PRDs, triage support tickets and partner requests, and decide what reaches engineering
• Lead product conversations with health system CNOs and CIOs and bring back insight, not just notes
• Build the product analytics strategy from scratch
• Own the nurse manager experience, user retention and buyer value
• Build working prototypes with tools such as Cursor, v0 or Replit

Requirements

• 7+ years of product management experience in health tech, with 3 to 4 years in your most recent role
• Experience at an early-stage health tech startup (Series A to C or pre product-market fit), VC-backed
• Shipped product as the sole or founding PM, owning the full product surface
• Commercial ownership: you have owned revenue, pricing, deals or customer outcomes, not only the roadmap
• Built operational workflow products sold to health system buyers (CNOs, CIOs, operations leaders)
• Builds prototypes yourself using Cursor, v0, Replit or similar AI tools
• Based in New York City, in the office Tuesday through Thursday
• Authorized to work in the US without sponsorship (the company cannot sponsor or transfer visas)

Nice to have

• Technical fluency: data models, backend tradeoffs, SQL and product analytics instrumentation
• Experience building a product analytics strategy from scratch

Compensation and location

Base salary of $200,000 to $225,000, plus competitive equity. Hybrid in New York, NY, with the office days Tuesday through Thursday.
