Head of Product (Healthcare Marketplace Startup)

Our client is a Series A healthtech startup that connects families with care providers, and it is hiring its first product leader. It needs a player-coach who ships early-stage features personally while also setting up how the product function runs.

What you’ll own

• Lead new product development spanning the family-facing experience, the provider-side clinical software and internal tooling
• Run the roadmap and sprint cadence, coordinating engineers and a strategy and operations group that acts as junior product support
• Use AI coding tools such as Claude Code and Cursor to build working prototypes yourself
• Coach those operations teammates, who write tickets and sit beside engineers, to turn business needs into clear product scope
• Review current flows with a designer’s eye so the healthcare experience feels consumer-grade
• Establish decision-making habits and team rhythms, and recruit product managers and designers as the group expands

Profile

• Five to eight years in product management at venture-backed startups
• Built product on a marketplace or multi-sided platform serving both consumers and providers
• Shipped consumer-facing products and helped one grow from early traction to eight-figure revenue
• Fluent with AI prototyping tools
• Hands-on by nature; not a manager who steps away from individual work
• Strong written and verbal communicator
• Healthcare or other regulated-industry background is a plus
