Responsibilities

Set the vision for Data Discovery through close partnership with Engineering, Data Science, Scientific leadership, and Go-To-Market teams, grounded in a deep understanding of customer workflows, scientific requirements, and the commercial impact of potential investments

Maintain relentless customer focus by obsessing over the problems faced by life sciences researchers, data buyers, and data providers, and by partnering with Engineering and Data Science to ship functionality that meaningfully improves how customers assess data while striking the right balance between impact, complexity, and cost

Bring clarity to ambiguity by identifying areas where requirements, ownership, or strategy are unclear, and by providing decisive direction informed by strong judgment, thoughtful analysis, and a deep understanding of both technical systems and scientific context

Write exceptional product requirements that provide clarity and motivation for what needs to be built, demonstrating an ability to generate workable solutions, avoid common pitfalls, and anchor decisions in a holistic understanding of the systems the product touches and the ways customers use them in practice

Drive adoption and impact through close collaboration with Engineering, Data Science, and Product teams across the organization to integrate AI/ML capabilities, remove obstacles to adoption, and ensure shipped functionality delivers measurable scientific and business value

Lead by example by fostering a highly collaborative environment across Product, Engineering, and Science, modeling strong ownership, intellectual honesty, and a bias toward action

Operate like an owner by taking responsibility for outcomes end-to-end — from early ideation through development, launch, adoption, and iteration — and by embracing a “no job is too small” mindset to ensure the success of the product, the team, and Datavant

Qualification

Product ManagementAI ProductsData ScienceHealthcare ExperienceTechnical FluencyProject ManagementCommunication SkillsOrganizational SkillsTeam Player

Required

5+ years of experience in product management, product strategy, or a closely related role, ideally building data-driven or AI products in healthcare, life sciences, or another highly regulated industry where security, privacy, and rigor materially shape product decisions

Maintain technical fluency and intellectual curiosity, and are comfortable engaging deeply with engineers and data scientists, diving into system architecture when needed, and forming strong opinions about tradeoffs even when the path forward is ambiguous

Strong organizational and execution skills, earning trust by owning complex initiatives, managing dependencies, and consistently delivering results in fast-moving environments

Highly organized and have strong project management skills: others are confident in a project's outcome when they know you're owning it

High bandwidth and high productivity: others wonder where you find time to do all you do. Your secret is that you are quick to understand, formulate and respond

Write exceptional documents, presentations, diagrams, and mockups. Your documentation leads to discussions about the content, not about what is intended

Great communicator and have the confidence to lead planning meetings with anyone or any group within the company. Ability to explain strategies, rationales and products in terms that each audience can understand

Motivated by getting stuff done. Wired to both set the big vision and to make continual steps towards that vision. Neither vision setting nor execution is satisfactory by itself to you - you want both

Team player. Always put yourself in other's positions and understand their motivations, needs, perspectives and potential points of confusion
