Location: San Francisco, CA (hybrid or on-site preferred).
  
About the Role:
We are looking for a customer-focused Imaging Algorithms Product Owner to lead the development, hosting, and distribution of imaging algorithms for radiology and digital pathology. Based in San Francisco, this role will serve as a Subject Matter Expert (SME), working closely with end users (e.g., radiologists, pathologists, developers) to ensure our algorithm solutions are portable, user-friendly, and aligned with clinical and business needs. The ideal candidate will combine technical expertise with product management skills to deliver self-service algorithm hosting and development platforms.
Responsibilities:

• Define and prioritize product requirements for imaging algorithm hosting, packaging, and distribution platforms, ensuring ease of use and portability.
• Collaborate with end users (e.g., radiologists, pathologists, data scientists) to understand clinical workflows and algorithm deployment needs.
• Develop a product roadmap for self-service algorithm hosting, enabling users to deploy and manage imaging algorithms (e.g., for lesion detection, tissue segmentation).
• Oversee the design and implementation of algorithm packaging solutions, ensuring compatibility with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Google Cloud, Azure) and containerized environments (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).
• Work with engineering teams to build and maintain a self-service platform for algorithm development, including APIs, SDKs, and documentation.
• Ensure algorithms are optimized for performance, scalability, and regulatory compliance (e.g., FDA, CE marking for medical devices).
• Act as the voice of the customer, gathering feedback from end users and translating it into actionable product features.
• Coordinate with marketing and sales teams to position the algorithm platform as a market differentiator, supporting partner enablement and sales strategies.
• Monitor usage metrics and user feedback to drive continuous improvement of the platform.
• Present product updates and roadmaps to internal stakeholders and external partners during quarterly business reviews.

Qualifications:

• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Biomedical Engineering, or a related field (Master’s or MBA preferred).
• Experience:
• 5+ years in product management or ownership, with at least 3 years in healthcare or medical imaging.
• Experience with imaging algorithms (e.g., for radiology, digital pathology) and their deployment in clinical settings.
• Proven track record of launching customer-facing platforms or tools, preferably in cloud or AI/ML environments.
• Technical Skills:
• Familiarity with algorithm development frameworks (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch) and their integration into clinical workflows.
• Knowledge of cloud platforms (AWS, Google Cloud, Azure) and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes).
• Understanding of API design and SDK development for developer-friendly platforms.
• Domain Knowledge:
• Strong understanding of radiology and digital pathology use cases, including algorithm applications (e.g., CAD, image segmentation).
• Familiarity with regulatory requirements for medical imaging software (e.g., FDA 510(k), CE marking).
• Soft Skills:
• Exceptional stakeholder management and communication skills to bridge technical and clinical teams.
• Strategic thinking to align product features with business outcomes and user needs.
• Proactive and collaborative approach to drive cross-functional projects in a fast-paced environment.
• Certifications (preferred):
• Product Management certifications (e.g., Pragmatic Institute, PMP).
• Google Cloud or AWS certifications for cloud-based product development.
