Job description

About us

splose is the AI-powered practice management platform powering better health care. Trusted by over 25,000+ Allied Health professionals around the world, splose is purpose-built to free clinicians from admin and let them focus on what matters most - helping people. Backed by leading VC funds EVP, Spectrum Equity, and Athletic Ventures we have recently announced a record-breaking $46M Series A raise - the largest Series A of any South Australian SaaS company ever. We’re growing fast and investing in our product, our people, and our global growth.

About you

You know what a healthy developer platform looks like: tiered access, clear governance, and documentation partners can actually build against. You've turned a scattering of one-off integrations into a real ecosystem before, and you're just as interested in the other side of the coin, helping the teams building the product get more out of AI in their own day-to-day work.

This is a new function at splose, built largely from scratch. Reporting directly to the CPO, you'll own the public API strategy end to end, from access and governance to partner onboarding and marketplace curation, guided by a clear build vs buy vs partner view of where splose invests next. You'll also introduce the tools and shared assets that make good AI practice the easy default for Product and Engineering, working closely with Engineering, Growth, Design and Customer Success plus a growing list of external partners, comfortable designing the frameworks as you go.

What you'll do

Integration & ecosystem strategy

• Establish and own splose's overall integration and ecosystem strategy, aligned to company and product goals

• Decide how and when access is granted to the splose public API, including tiering and eligibility criteria

• Define what information is needed from potential partners upfront, and how it's collected, verified and kept current

• Own API governance: scope design, permissioning and access controls

• Oversee the quality, clarity and consistency of API documentation authored by developers

• Partner with Engineering on API security and performance standards

• Work with Product teams to identify, prioritise and develop new API capabilities

Build vs buy vs partner

• Design and maintain a repeatable decision model for build vs buy vs partner, with documented rationale

• Apply that model to guide product and engineering investment decisions on new capabilities

Partnerships & marketplace

• Actively source new third-party developer partnerships that complement splose's native product

• Lead end to end onboarding of third-party integrations onto the splose platform

• Partner with Growth and Product on the Integrations Marketplace page: positioning, discoverability and ongoing curation

• Work with Customer Success on clear customer-facing support messaging for third-party apps

AI enablement for Product & Engineering

• Introduce tools and processes that help Product and Engineering teams work faster with and on AI

• Build and maintain an enablement library: templates, worked examples, playbooks and best-practice guides

• Spot where AI tooling could meaningfully speed up delivery across the business, and champion adoption

• Act as the connection point between teams experimenting with AI, sharing learnings and avoiding duplicated effort

What you'll bring

• 8+ years in product management, including significant experience owning a platform, API or developer-facing product

• Experience building or scaling a partner or integration ecosystem, including governance, onboarding and documentation standards

• A track record of sourcing and closing third-party partnerships that expanded a product's reach or capability

• Experience defining structured decision frameworks, such as build vs buy vs partner, and applying them to real investment decisions

• Working understanding of API security, performance and scope-based governance models

• Familiarity with modern AI/LLM tooling and how it can accelerate product and engineering workflows, as an informed enabler rather than an AI product builder

• Strong systems thinking, with the ability to design governance models that scale beyond a single decision

• Excellent cross-functional influence, particularly with Engineering, Growth and Customer Success

• A commercial mindset, comfortable weighing partnership and build vs buy vs partner trade-offs

• Clear communication, able to translate technical API and governance concepts for non-technical and external audiences

• Comfort operating with ambiguity while bringing structure and clarity to a new function

• Experience in health-tech, practice management, or other regulated or compliance-sensitive industries is a bonus

Only shortlisted candidates will be contacted for an initial screening call by our internal TA team.
