Special Projects Manager - Product

About the position:

Stellar Health is looking for a Special Project Manager to join our Product Management team.  As the team has grown quickly, you will have the opportunity to own a piece of product deliverables, shape our processes and culture, work directly with the product management and operations teams, and help us maximize the impact of the product management function.  This is an exciting opportunity to leave your mark on a dynamic and highly-engaged organization.

Who will love this job:

• You are obsessive about execution and are known for improving every process you touch.
• You get things done and you love working in a dynamic environment; we move quickly, and it creates opportunities to learn about a wide array of topics.
• You understand, appreciate, and enjoy the responsibility and accountability that comes with being assigned high level ownership over projects and their success.
• You work well with cross-functional teams and are a stellar communicator. You thrive off being able to explain processes and requirements with minimal time and maximum clarity.
• You are known for your organizational skills and ability to quickly come up to speed on new domains.
• You are passionate about building solutions, not just tools, and lean into effective collaboration.
• You thrive in ambiguity and enjoy working with others to create structure in unstructured domains.

What you’ll do:

• Manage key processes, own key artifacts, and generally support the Stellar product management organization.
• Maintain a consistent schedule of activities that enables the product team to continue to grow while ensuring consistent, high-value meetings and work products.
• Be the point of contact for the product management organization with other internal teams including engineering, operations, and growth on specific topics.
• You will be focused both on managing the execution of product-management team activities (regular planning exercises, team definition and organization maintenance, culture-building activities, team retreat planning, managing interview panels, etc.) as well as identifying opportunities for continuous improvement.
• Design and roll out new processes that will improve Steller Health’s product management practices.
• Measure key performance indicators and analyze performance issues.

Note: This is not a traditional agile coach or SDLC-focused role, but there are likely points of intersection where the problem to be tackled is related to the software development life cycle.

You should have:

• At least 5 years of professional work experience with some experience in a product management organization.
• A proven track record of creating high-quality deliverables, completing projects on schedule, and creating stable processes.
• Experience working in a technology company or team, especially where the company is early-stage.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, especially in the form of designing processes to be followed by others.
• Specific examples of effectively multi-tasking and managing multiple streams of work.
