Senior Product Manager, Data Platform

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in United States.

📋 Description

• Take ownership of the product roadmap for Arbital’s data pipeline platform, which encompasses ingestion, transformation, calculation, validation, audit trail, and AI consumption layers.

• Identify and prioritize pipeline capabilities driven by client requirements, implementation insights, engineering limitations, and long-term scalability objectives.

• Convert intricate healthcare data requirements from claims processing to VBC contract logic into structured, actionable product specifications.

• Collaborate with leadership to ensure that pipeline investments align with Arbital’s overarching product and go-to-market strategies.

• Compose comprehensive PRDs, user stories, and technical documents for platform features, configurations, and automation tools.

• Work directly with engineering teams to define scope, sequence, and implement pipeline enhancements, balancing speed, quality, and adaptability.

• Establish acceptance criteria and lead QA efforts for new pipeline and platform capabilities, ensuring that outputs meet accuracy and performance standards.

• Oversee end-to-end platform delivery, managing prioritization, inter-team dependencies, and release coordination.

• Develop a deep understanding of Arbital’s data models, pipeline architecture, healthcare data standards (claims, eligibility, attribution, CMS/ACO files), and actuarial concepts (IBNR, rebates, contract terms).

• Engage hands-on with data by running SQL queries, reviewing pipeline outputs, and validating logic to guide product decisions and assist in debugging efforts.

• Set standards for data quality, deduplication, business rule configuration, lineage, and pipeline observability across all client environments.

• Assess and recommend tooling enhancements across the platform stack (e.g., Airflow, Databricks, AWS) in collaboration with engineering.

• Act as the primary product owner for data capabilities across implementation, engineering, actuarial, and data science teams.

• Work closely with the Implementation team to identify recurring client configuration needs and translate them into scalable platform features.

• Collaborate with actuarial and data science teams to ensure that pipeline logic accurately supports attribution, aggregation, and actuarial use cases.

• Clearly communicate roadmap priorities, trade-offs, and delivery progress to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
