FlexCare is seeking a Director of Data Product & Analytics Strategy to own the company"s data assets, technology and analytics products, and data roadmap. This role sits at the intersection of product ownership, data, and finance, and is responsible for turning data into a strategic lever for business performance and growth.

The Director will ensure FlexCare"s data improves profitability through OKR and red flag reporting, delivers trusted and authoritative financial and operational numbers (including month-end close), and drives innovation by owning and prioritizing a portfolio of data and AI-enabled products (e.g., AI intake automation). Additionally, this role will chart the company"s long-term path forward across data, analytics, and AI capabilities, while unlocking new revenue opportunities through manufacturer data partnerships.

You"ll enjoy the flexibility to work remotely * from anywhere within the U.S. as you take on some tough challenges. For all hires in the Minneapolis or Washington, D.C. area, you will be required to work in the office a minimum of four days per week.

Primary Responsibilities:

• Product Ownership of Growth-Driving Technologies and Performance Analytics

Define, prioritize, and deliver solutions in partnership with leaders across sales, operations, intake, revenue cycle, and finance, ensuring each product is directly tied to measurable business outcomes

• Within the performance analytics suite, partner with functional leaders to define, measure, and improve objectives and key results. Build and manage Red Flag reporting as a core product, surfacing issues while they are still actionable and iterate based on frontline adoption and feedback. Equip leaders with the measurement and escalation tools they need to move their numbers, including analytics, to support sales bracket discussions, with success measured by operational outcomes rather than deliverables shipped

• Strategic Planning and Roadmap

• Inventory FlexCare"s current data capabilities and own a multi-year data, analytics, and AI roadmap and budget tied to business OKRs and Optum integration priorities. Lead historical data remediation efforts and deliver a trusted data foundation to serve as a single source of truth to support consistent reporting and decision-making. Lead buy-vs-build evaluations for data, analytics, and AI investments in partnership with the technology and capabilities teams, and present investment recommendations to executive leadership

• Change Management & Optum Integration

• Lead the transition from contracted engineering resources to a sustainable long-term operating model, sequencing the handoff to protect critical deliverables, while actively managing the delivery risk inherent in a transition of this scale. Direct analytics and data engineering resources against the roadmap and serve as FlexCare"s representative to Optum on all data and analytics matters

• Manufacturer Data Contracts

• Manage and expand the portfolio of manufacturer data and enhanced services agreements, assisting in contract scoping and execution oversight. Oversee pipeline development and maintenance for reliable, compliant data delivery

• Financial Reporting & Month-End Close

• Support and enhance the month-end close reporting process, driving accuracy, timeliness, and consistency. Eliminate manual effort through automation, resolve reconciliation issues, and reduce key-person dependency. Establish and maintain a single source of truth for metrics across FlexCare and Optum

• Industry Leadership & Market Presence

• Maintain FlexCare"s reputation as a data-forward leader in the national infusion market by deepening manufacturer partnerships, incorporating emerging data, analytics, and AI best practices into operations, and representing the company at national industry conferences to inform strategy and execution
