Job Description

We are seeking a motivated and execution-focused IT Product Owner to help deliver high-impact technology solutions that address some of the most complex and meaningful challenges in our healthcare system. This role offers a unique opportunity to work on emerging technologies in a fast-moving, mission-driven environment—where rapid, thoughtful delivery directly supports better patient care and operational excellence.

Success in this role requires balancing speed with rigor: driving rapid delivery while ensuring solutions are safe, compliant, and built to meet the demands of a highly regulated healthcare environment.
