Associate AI Product Manager (Portugal-based Remote/Hybrid)

Who we are:Each year, 2 billion people across the world are limited by physical pain. By helping people live without pain, they are free to do the things they love most with the people they love—and never miss a moment. This is what we do. We create and design new technologies to solve one of the biggest problems in healthcare: taking care of our Physical Health. Sword Health is the world’s fastest growing digital musculoskeletal (MSK) care provider on a bold mission to free two billion people from acute, chronic, and post-surgical physical pain . Our customers include some of the most progressive Fortune 100 and 500 companies, as well as over 160+ other established businesses across the world.       The Sword program allows members to complete a personalized physical therapy program from the comfort of home, with continued support and supervision from one of our talented SWORD specialists. Sword’s personalized care is more effective than traditional standards of care, and has proven to deliver best-in-class clinical results. Since breaking into the market less than two years ago, Sword has worked with insurers, health systems, and employers in the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Australia to make high quality musculoskeletal care accessible to everyone. This is an opportunity to join Sword during a time of hyper growth and expansion. After our recent $2bn valuation, we’re excited to continue accelerating our impact by scaling with high caliber people with passion, commitment and energy to create and deliver technologies, services and products that drive human progress forward.    We welcome you to join our mission, to make a difference on a grand scale and play a pivotal role with a global team at Sword– working alongside great people pioneering novel products and cutting edge technologies.  



The AI team
Sword’s AI team sits at the intersection of productized Machine Learning (ML) and software development, working across the Sword platform to enable its ultimate vision of AI Care: unprecedented levels of care, both in scale and quality, through AI-powered clinician and member experiences that "🔊 amplify the human touch".- e.g., a decision support system for clinical prescription management, a ranking system to direct attention to members requiring assistance, and an engagement system surfacing the most relevant data points for any given communication.
In this role, you’ll work under the VP of Product Innovation in a team of AI Product Managers dedicated to crafting and executing these experiences.

What you'll be doing:

• Influencing the team’s roadmap by proactively identifying opportunities across Sword for high-impact ML initiatives;
• Help PMs scoping AI initiatives, by deep-diving into the underlying pain points, assessing the adequacy of ML solutions, defining requirements, and laying out high-level approaches;
• Support execution & iteration by working with other teams (Engineering, Product, Clinical, Operations) in tight feedback loops to make sure requirements are met and scope is adjusted as new information comes in;
• Being the face of ML solutions at Sword: preparing releases, communicating changes, collecting feedback from end users; and acting as the first layer of troubleshooting;
• Controlling the success of existing products by closely monitoring our dashboards as well as user feedback and acting accordingly;
• Driving smaller or incremental product improvements.

What you need to have:

• Experience as Product Owner/Product Manager or solid interest in such areas and a background in technology;
• Ability to exercise sound judgment and understand the nuanced implications in the downstream product experience;
• A good zoom dial: move between the problem and solution spaces as needed, interfacing with both non-technical (physical therapists, business decision-makers) and technical (MLE/DS, tech leads) stakeholders through adequate, timely communication;
• Good oral and written communication skills;
• Critical thinking: strategically disagree upwards or with peers as necessary;
• A natural curiosity and intuition over both old and new AI techniques and the product/business problems they can address.

What we would love to see:

• Have experience working in a fast-paced environment wearing different hats, acting scrappy when the situation calls for it;
• Have experience with BigQuery and Looker for business and product analytics;
• Have experience with the Python data stack;
• Get itchy with suboptimal processes and can’t help but propose improved versions.

To ensure you feel good solving a big Human problem, we offer:

• A stimulating, fast-paced environment with lots of room for creativity;
• A bright future at a promising high-tech startup company;
• Career development and growth, with a competitive salary;
• The opportunity to work with a talented team and to add real value to an innovative solution with the potential to change the future of healthcare;
• A stimulating environment with room for creativity;
• A flexible environment where you can control your hours (remotely) with unlimited vacation;
• Access to our health and well-being program (digital therapist sessions);
• Remote or Hybrid work policy: We have offices in Porto and Lisbon, so if you want to have face-to-face contact you can always work from there.

*Please note that this position does not offer relocation assistance. Candidates must possess a valid EU visa and be based in Portugal.
