Job summary

ChronicleBio in Menlo Park is seeking a Product Manager who can drive the development of our ML-powered platform and consumer-facing product. You will work with bioinformatics scientists, engineering, and leadership to shape what ships and when, with a strong emphasis on platform data pipelines and reliability.

This role is 80/20: primary focus on platform and product development, with a secondary responsibility for patient and physician reporting outputs.

Qualifications

• PM with data-, ML-, or platform-heavy product experience.
• Comfort with healthcare/biology terminology and data handling.
• Track record shipping in small or fast-moving teams.
• Ability to support reporting outputs under leadership direction.
• Bonus: consumer health or genomics exposure and ML-productization experience.

Responsibilities

• Own the product roadmap for internal data/ML platform and its integration with the biobank and lab pipelines.
• Translate research-stage models into reliable, repeatable product features with clear requirements.
• Own the direct-to-consumer product roadmap and coordinate with engineering on build sequencing.
• Maintain coherent platform architecture across internal tooling, consumer product, and reporting surfaces.
• Manage day-to-day product processes: requirements, prioritization, and release cadence.
• Support patient and physician reporting experiences, flagging decisions needing clinical or IP sign-off.

We are a mission-driven team aiming to lead discovery in the largest unmet needs in healthcare.

About ChronicleBio

ChronicleBio is a clinical-stage precision techbio company developing biomarker-guided treatments for ME/CFS, Long COVID, POTS, and related neuroimmune conditions. Our platform combines a large-scale biobank with an endotype-driven diagnostic and therapeutic strategy, allowing us to match existing and novel therapeutics to the specific drivers of each patient’s disease. We are a mission-driven team aiming to lead discovery in the largest unmet needs in healthcare.

The Role

ChronicleBio is looking for a Product Manager who is primarily a technical builder: someone who can drive the development of our internal data science/ML-powered platform and our consumer-facing product offering, and who can also support our patient- and physician-facing reporting outputs as a secondary responsibility. This role is weighted roughly 80/20; most of your time will go toward technical platform and product development work; a smaller but meaningful portion will go toward shaping how results get communicated to patients and clinicians. You will report to the CEO and work closely with our bioinformatics/ML scientists, engineering team, clinical operations, and leadership on what ships and when.

What You'll Own

Platform & ML-Powered Product Development (Primary Focus)

• Own the product roadmap for our internal system that connects our biobank, lab, and multi-omic data pipelines and increasingly incorporates ML-driven analysis.
• Partner with our bioinformatics/ML scientists to turn research-stage models and analyses into reliable, repeatable product features, defining requirements around accuracy, explainability, and appropriate handling of uncertainty.
• Own the product roadmap for our direct-to-consumer product offering, driving feature prioritization, user experience decisions, and coordination with engineering on build sequencing.
• Work with engineering to keep the platform architecture coherent as new product surfaces (internal tooling, consumer product, reporting) are added, rather than letting each surface grow in isolation.
• Run day-to-day product processes (requirements, prioritization, release cadence) for these workstreams.

Patient & Physician Reporting Support (Secondary Focus)

• Support the product experience of our research reports (e.g., proteomics, metabolomics, and related result types), working with clinical and scientific leadership on how results are presented to patients in a way that's clear and appropriately hedged.
• Flag and route reporting content decisions that require clinical, regulatory, or IP sign-off, rather than owning that judgment independently; this piece of the role is about product execution support, not final decision authority.

What You Bring

• Strong technical/product background: experience as a PM on a data-, ML-, or platform-heavy product, comfortable in detailed technical conversations with engineers and data scientists.
• Some experience in healthcare, life sciences, or biology; this doesn’t need to be deep clinical expertise, but you should be comfortable with biological/clinical terminology and the general shape of how health data products need to handle accuracy and trust.
• Track record shipping product in a small or fast-moving team, where you’re building process as much as following one.
• Comfort being the secondary owner on the reporting side; able to execute well against direction from clinical/scientific leadership without needing to set the clinical judgment calls yourself.
• Bonus: experience with consumer health or direct-to-consumer product models; exposure to genomics, multi-omic data, or diagnostic-adjacent products; experience productizing ML outputs specifically (not just consuming a model someone else already shipped).
