Founding Product Manager, Employer Solutions - Turquoise Health

This is a fully remote role within the United States.

Turquoise Health is seeking a voraciously curious, systems-minded Founding Product Manager to build our Employer product vertical from the ground up. This is a founding product role: you will define the strategy, ship the first products, and lay the foundation for a durable new line of business serving self-insured employers and the brokers and advisors who guide them.

This role requires deep, first-hand expertise in the direct-to-employer ecosystem in your own right—its dynamics, incentives, and nuances.

Why this Role Matters

Turquoise has built the most comprehensive picture of negotiated rates and contract data in US healthcare. Employers—and the advisors who serve them—sit at the paying end of that system: they foot the bill for care but have the least visibility into what they're actually buying. Giving them that visibility, and the tools to act on it through steerage, care navigation, and direct contracting, is core to our mission to eliminate financial complexity and rebuild trust in US healthcare.

What You'll Do

• Own the 0→1: define the product vision, strategy, and roadmap for the Employer vertical, from first customer conversations through first shipped products and early revenue.
• Be the connective tissue across Turquoise's employer subject-matter experts, translating deep employer and broker knowledge into a concrete product plan.
• Develop and defend your own point of view on employer ecosystem dynamics—plan design, self-insurance, incentives, steerage, care navigation, and direct contracting.
• Relentlessly drive early-stage concepts through iteration, execution, and enhancement with real employer and broker customers.
• Turn Turquoise's pricing and contract data assets into products that solve concrete employer and broker problems.
• Facilitate airtight coordination across Engineering, Design, GTM, and Solutions, as well as external stakeholders like benefits leaders, brokers, consultants, and TPAs.
• Be the customer's voice by building direct relationships with employer benefits teams and their advisors.
• Stay ahead of market trends and regulatory developments (e.g., CAA transparency and fiduciary obligations).

What You'll Bring

• 7+ years of product management experience, with a track record of owning products end to end.
• 5+ years building for the direct-to-employer and/or broker market.
• Deep understanding of employer ecosystem dynamics, incentives, and nuances—plan design, self-insurance, steerage, and TPAs.
• Demonstrated ability to ship high-complexity, 0→1 solutions in a fast-paced startup environment.
• Subject-matter credibility to serve as the connective tissue for other employer SMEs.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills to influence senior stakeholders.
• Comfort operating in ambiguity and iterating in response to internal and market feedback.
• Bachelor's degree OR equivalent experience/knowledge.

Bonus Points

• Experience building care navigation and/or direct contracting solutions.
• Proficiency with claims and eligibility data.
