À propos
You will operate at the intersection of Product, Engineering, Clinical Programs, Operations, and Customer Experience to bring new capabilities to market and continuously improve their performance. Success in this role requires strong business judgment, technical fluency, and the ability to translate strategy into scalable platform capabilities.
This is a generalist, high‑impact role for someone who is equally comfortable working with engineers, clinicians, and product leaders and can distill complicated topics for executive consumption. You can operate with ownership over both strategy and execution for a platform capability. You thrive in ambiguity, complexity, and fast‑moving environments, but have an appetite to contribute in the development of long‑term scalable processes.
What you’ll do
Own end‑to‑end program delivery for customer accounts from contract signature through implementation, go‑live, and ongoing success
Own the performance and success of a platform capability, including adoption, operational performance, and value delivered to clients
Serve as the single‑threaded owner for cross‑functional execution across Product, Engineering, Solution Architecture, and Customer Experience
Lead the execution team, including delivery sequencing, dependencies, risks, and stakeholder and executive communication
Translate customer and program needs into clear product and delivery priorities
Influence roadmap and backlog decisions tied to customer success and deployment milestones
Incorporate client feedback and operational insights into platform improvements
Identify opportunities to increase adoption and value realization across the platform
Drive large initiatives that contribute to the overall success of the customer
Drive configuration, rules, and AI automation strategy in support of customer goals and Cohere benchmarks
Track and manage solution KPIs, ensuring the platform delivers measurable clinical, operational, and financial value
Run the program operating cadence (e.g., status, risk reviews, executive updates, milestone tracking)
Own long‑term success planning for accounts, including expansion initiatives
What you’ll need
10+ years of experience in program management, delivery, product management/operations, consulting, or implementation leadership in a healthcare, software, or technology‑enabled services environment
Proven experience leading complex, cross‑functional initiatives and translating strategy into execution
Strong technical aptitude—you don’t need to code, but you must be able to:
Work effectively with engineering and architecture teams
Understand systems, integrations, data flows, and configuration‑driven platforms
Strong business and customer‑facing skills, including:
Executive communication
Scope, timeline, and tradeoff management
Experience in healthcare, health plans, or regulated enterprise environments
Experience owning the performance or success of a product, platform capability, or strategic initiative
Fully remote opportunity with about 25% travel
Medical, dental, vision, life, disability insurance, and Employee Assistance Program
401K retirement plan with company match; flexible spending and health savings account
️ Up to 184 hours (23 days) of PTO per year + company holidays
Up to 14 weeks of paid parental leave
The salary range for this position is $160,000 to $180,000 annually; as part of a total benefits package which includes health insurance, 401k and bonus. In accordance with state applicable laws, Cohere is required to provide a reasonable estimate of the compensation range for this role. Individual pay decisions are ultimately based on a number of factors, including but not limited to qualifications for the role, experience level, skillset, and internal alignment.
