Director of Product Management - Health Care

Job title: Director of Product Management, Health Care

Location: Atlanta, GA or Scottsdale, AZ

Who we are:

Illumia is an industry leader in bringing the best integrated technology solutions to education, healthcare, and business campuses worldwide. Illumia was built on the collective expertise of Transact Campus + CBORD, and brings together people, technology, and insight to pioneer the art of the experience across the communities we serve. Be a part of this exciting organization and improving the lives of people doing mission-critical work.

Why join our team?

We strive to provide the best customer experience in the industry and have succeeded with a single, strong motivating principle: We serve our user community.

Our success and growth are directly attributed to our people. Our newly named company is dedicated to fostering a culture of integrity, respect, and continuous personal development. We maintain an entrepreneurial spirit, where creativity, innovative problem-solving, and learning agility drive our day-to-day actions.

What you will be doing:

The Director of Product Management is the most senior product leader within a product group — a player-coach who has been a strong individual PM and is ready to multiply that capability across a team. This role sets the strategic context that empowers squads to make great decisions independently, leads a team of Product Managers and Associate Product Managers, and serves as the primary product voice for their group to business leadership and executive stakeholders.

This is not a program management role or a roadmap-management role. It is for someone deeply grounded in discovery-led product practice, capable of coaching others toward the same standard, and ready to own outcomes — not output — across a set of focused product squads.

Who will you work with:

STRATEGY AND DIRECTION

• Develop and maintain the product strategy for the group in partnership with the CPO, business leadership, and relevant General Managers
•  Define and own the team topology within the group: what each squad owns, how ownership is carved, and how dependencies are minimized
•  Set quarterly team objectives, ensuring each squad has a clear problem, a defined measure of success, and the strategic context to pursue it

STAKEHOLDER AND CROSS-FUNCTIONAL LEADERSHIP

• Serve as the primary product voice for the group to business leadership, sales, customer success, and executive stakeholders
• Own the intake process for feature and capability requests — frame requests as problems before they reach squads
• Partner with the relevant GM to ensure program management and delivery milestone tracking are handled outside the product organization
• Maintain a dotted-line relationship with integration certification roles in Engineering

PEOPLE AND CRAFT

• Coach Product Managers on discovery methodology, outcome thinking, and the habits of strong product management
• Hold the hiring bar for PM and APM roles; identify and develop Associate Product Managers with PM-track potential
•  Model the behaviors the product organization is building: customer proximity, intellectual honesty, and comfort with uncertainty

DELIVERY AND OPERATIONS

• Monitor cross-squad dependencies and surface sequencing risks before they become delivery blockers
• Ensure each squad has the instrumentation to know whether it is moving its key results

What you bring to the table:

• 7+ years of product management experience, including significant time as a PM on an empowered, discovery-led team
• Experience leading or mentoring other Product Managers; demonstrated ability to coach rather than direct
• Track record of defining product strategy, not just executing on roadmaps
• Familiarity with the SVPG Product Operating Model strongly preferred
• Experience with SaaS products in institutional, enterprise, campus, healthcare, or regulated environments preferred

Leadership Qualities

We hire and develop people who are humble, hungry, and smart — and we hold our leaders to the highest standard across all three.

• Humble: They lack excessive ego or concerns about status
• Hungry: They are always looking for more — more things to do, more to learn, more responsibility to take on
• Smart: They have common sense about people, dealing with others in the most effective way, and picking up on the needs and feelings of others
