Job Summary
The Manager, Product Management – Population Health (Clinical) leads a team of product managers responsible for delivering clinically-driven population health products across a multistate Medicaid managed care organization. This role is accountable for the performance, development, and delivery output of a portfolio of product managers covering utilization management (UM), care management (CM), quality, behavioral health, pharmacy, and member engagement domains.

Operating at the intersection of people leadership, product management discipline, and clinical/operational delivery, this role ensures the product team operates as a high-performing function—aligned to enterprise strategy, compliant with regulatory mandates (CMS Interoperability, NCQA, HEDIS, state Medicaid), and consistently shipping products that improve clinician and member experience.
