A bit about us:

We're partnering with an award-winning digital product consultancy that helps healthcare organizations design, build, and launch innovative software products. Their clients range from early-stage healthcare startups to established healthcare organizations looking to modernize digital experiences through custom software development.

This is not an internal IT Project Manager position.

This is not an infrastructure, networking, ERP, EHR implementation, or PMO governance role.

Instead, you'll work directly with healthcare clients, product designers, and software engineers to guide custom software projects from early discovery through production release. You'll own client relationships, help define product strategy, facilitate technical discussions, manage delivery, and ensure successful execution across multiple engagements.

If you enjoy solving ambiguous product challenges, working directly with executive stakeholders, and helping engineering teams deliver meaningful software solutions, this is an outstanding opportunity.

Why join us?

You'll join a highly collaborative consulting organization where every project is different. Rather than supporting a single product, you'll partner with innovative healthcare organizations to design and deliver technology that improves patient experiences, provider workflows, and healthcare outcomes.

If you enjoy wearing multiple hats, influencing product direction, and seeing your work shipped into production, we'd love to hear from you.

  • Competitive Base Salary
  • Company paid health plan for employees
  • Flexible Hours
  • Very generous PTO
  • Dental and Vision, FSA, HSA
  • Small team, autonomy
  • Many more great perks!
