Principal/Director, Product Management

The posting, as Heartflow wrote it

Heartflow is a medical technology company advancing the diagnosis and management of coronary artery disease, the #1 cause of death worldwide, using cutting-edge technology. The flagship product—an AI-driven, non-invasive cardiac test supported by the ACC/AHA Chest Pain Guidelines called the Heartflow FFR CT Analysis—provides a color-coded, 3D model of a patient’s coronary arteries indicating the impact blockages have on blood flow to the heart. Heartflow is the first AI-driven non-invasive integrated heart care solution across the CCTA pathway that helps clinicians identify stenoses in the coronary arteries (RoadMap™Analysis), assess coronary blood flow (FFR CT Analysis), and characterize and quantify coronary atherosclerosis (Plaque Analysis). Our pipeline of products is growing and so is our team; join us in helping to revolutionize precision heartcare.

Heartflow is a publicly traded company (HTFL) that has received international recognition for exceptional strides in healthcare innovation, is supported by medical societies around the world, cleared for use in the US, UK, Europe, Japan and Canada, and has been used for more than 750,000 patients worldwide.

This is a senior individual-contributor role for a product leader who wants to shape how care is delivered. You will own the strategy for a portfolio of medical-grade products — which problems we take on, what performance and outcomes we commit to, and how our products earn a durable place in the care pathway and how our capabilities compose into a product physicians trust, where the portfolio boundaries sit, and how our evidence and regulatory strategy compounds across releases instead of being rebuilt each time.

Success is measured by the quality of decisions the organization makes because of you.

WHAT YOU WILL OWN

• Performance and outcomes: Define what “good enough to ship” means before development starts — performance targets, acceptable failure modes, and the intended-use and patient-population boundaries those commitments hold within. Own the claims strategy with Clinical and Regulatory.
• Care-pathway ownership: Map how the product lands in practice end to end — referral, acquisition, interpretation, reporting, follow-up, reimbursement — and design for the people and systems already in that pathway.
• Requirements and design authority: Author user needs and system requirements for the hardest, most ambiguous problems. Where a requirement is contested across functions, you resolve it.
• Regulatory and evidence strategy: Be the produ

• Demonstrated experience owning a product area or portfolio at the scale expected of a Principal or Director-level individual contributor.

A note on level: this role is scoped as a range. Principal and Director here are the same individual-contributor track, differentiated by the breadth of portfolio you own and the altitude at which you operate. We calibrate levels during the interview process based on demonstrated scope of influence and depth. A reasonable estimate of the yearly base compensation range is $240,000 to $295,000, cash bonus, and equity. #LI-IB1
