About the Role

We're hiring a Staff Product Manager to join our Product Development team. Reporting to the Director of Product Management, you’ll lead mission-critical initiatives across both new and existing products. You’ll own the roadmap, run independent discovery efforts, and work shoulder-to-shoulder with design, engineering, and leadership to deliver scalable product outcomes.

This is a high-ownership, high-autonomy role ideal for a product leader who thrives in ambiguity, builds clarity for others, and operates with urgency. You’ll be expected to think strategically, execute tactically, and help mentor the next generation of PMs at Thalamus.

What You Will Achieve

  • Independently run discovery and design sprints (e.g., without Director present) to validate opportunities and define product direction

  • Drive 0→1 product development: plan 6+ months out, deliver MVPs, and scale adoption

  • For existing products, lead strategic planning 12 months out: 6 months in high fidelity, 6 months directional

  • Mentor and coach junior PMs to elevate team capabilities and product thinking

  • Collaborate with Engineering and Design to execute against roadmap priorities

  • Present product strategy, tradeoffs, and rationale to C-level stakeholders — and incorporate their feedback

  • Champion quantitative product thinking: drive adoption of product analytics to inform decisions and measure impact

  • Align product initiatives with business priorities, customer needs, and go-to-market readiness

You Should Have

  • Proven success taking products from 0→1, including identifying user problems, defining MVPs, and launching

  • Experience planning product roadmaps 6–12 months out with both strategic and tactical depth

  • Strong product sense and ability to make thoughtful trade-offs across UX, engineering, and business impact

  • Demonstrated ability to lead cross-functional teams and run discovery or design sprints independently

  • Comfortable engaging with executive stakeholders and handling tough feedback with clarity and confidence

  • Familiarity with product analytics and using quantitative insights to guide decisions

  • Experience mentoring other product managers or leveling up peers

  • Exceptional communication and expectation management — proactive, organized, and clear

  • A bias for action and the confidence to challenge ideas, push for clarity, and advocate for what’s right for the user and business

Bonus 

  • Deep customer empathy in the healthcare space or related regulated industries

The salary for this position is $185-215k and a grant of stock options. Compensation will be determined based on experience, skills, and geographic location.

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
