• Allocate approved capital across teams and initiatives, rebalancing investments as priorities change while remaining accountable for spend and outcomes.
• Own the work stream roadmap and establish clear readiness tiers so external commitments reflect an honest level of confidence.
• Resolve sequencing and dependency conflicts across teams and elevate issues that cross work streams.
• Lead the product manager and product owner staffing plan, hire and develop talent, and provide clear direction and accountability across the work stream.
• Ensure clinical regulatory changes reach the roadmap early enough to plan effectively and determine when regulatory changes require roadmap adjustments.
• Partner with shared design and clinical regulatory services by forecasting needs, negotiating capacity and managing tradeoffs.
• Make decisions on funding, roadmap commitments, readiness, sequencing, regulatory-driven changes and team structure.
• Improve high-volume clinical workflows, with a focus on reducing documentation burden for clinicians.
• Guide product direction across clinical documentation, assessments, plans of care, visit documentation, medication management, orders, mobile and offline workflows, and interoperability.

• Demonstrated ownership of a roadmap with external customer commitments and accountability for the consequences when commitments change.
• Experience delivering against regulatory deadlines where timing is non-negotiable.
• Ability to lead through product managers and product owners rather than performing the work yourself.
