About The Role…

The Product Owner (PO) delivers value to the market through solution creation. The PO must have a deep understanding of the product from both the business and technical perspectives and the skills required to work directly with customers, embedding themselves in their teams, to understand and solve problems using the Palantir Workshop Application.  The PO has a deep motivation to work on meaningful, real world, high-impact customer problems! Will work side-by-side with hospital leaders, clinicians, and operational teams to design and deliver technical solutions that improve patient care, optimize workflows, and drive data-informed decision-making. 

 As a PO, you will be embedded in the field (travel will be 30-50% at minimum) – inside health systems, provider organizations, and operational war rooms. Travel to the TeleTracking HQ located in Pittsburgh, PA.   Leverage gained “no code/low code” engineering expertise and analytical mindset to turn complex clinical and operational data into insights and tools that directly impact patient outcomes and care efficiency. 

What You’ll Do…

• Collaborate with staff from client sites (clinicians, administrators, and IT teams) to understand operational pain points in operational areas like transfer coordination, patient throughput, situational awareness, etc.  Works directly with users, stakeholders, and domain experts to understand customer and market problems.
