Our integrated solutions seamlessly fit into existing workflows, capturing everything happening within a community. Backed by nurse specialists and powerful analytics, we provide the data operators need to make informed clinical and operational decisions - driving efficiency, profitability, and better care outcomes. About the Role We are seeking a Principal Product Manager, Strategic Expansion , to own the product strategy and roadmap for Inspiren’s most important expansion opportunities—across new markets, new segments, and new experiences. This role sits at the intersection of strategy and execution, where hardware, software, AI, and clinical workflows come together to unlock new growth. You will take ambiguous, high?stakes questions like “where should Inspiren go next?” and turn them into clear, durable product and market directions. You will define which segments and use cases we pursue, how our platform needs to evolve, and how we deliver differentiated value that drives expansion revenue and retention. This is a hands?on leadership role and a key driver of Inspiren’s future. You will be accountable for turning technical capabilities in hardware, firmware, connectivity, and AI into real?world impact for residents, caregivers, and operators—and into measurable business results. Beyond owning expansion roadmaps, you will raise the bar for how product is practiced across the organization. You will apply deep expertise in hardware?enabled products and platform thinking to identify new opportunities, guide rigorous discovery, and evolve our product development and portfolio processes. You will work closely with Engineering (hardware, firmware, software, and Data & AI), Design, Clinical Success, Operations, and Go?To?Market partners, reporting directly to the Head of Product. What you’ll do Define the Strategic Expansion Direction: Own the long?term vision and strategy for how Inspiren expands into new markets, segments, and use cases. Build and maintain a clear expansion thesis and sequencing over a 1–3 year horizon. Lead Discovery for New Bets: Champion and execute discovery for new markets, segments, and product extensions. You will define the “why” and “what” behind our most strategic expansion bets and validate them with customers, data, and business cases. Use the Platform as the How: Partner closely with Hardware, Firmware, Software, and Data & AI teams to turn strategic expansion bets into products. Establish Expansion Product Excellence: Introduce and evolve best?in?class practices for expansion?oriented product development—from opportunity assessment and experimentation through launch, scale?up, and lifecycle management. Raise the quality bar for how we analyze markets, test theses, and make go/no?go decisions. Strategic Roadmapping & Portfolio Management: Lead the end?to?end roadmap for Inspiren’s expansion portfolio, including how we adapt our hardware?enabled platform. Balance near?term wins and cost optimizations with longer?term platform investments. Cross?Functional Expansion Leadership: Collaborate closely with Clinical Success, Operations, Implementation, and GTM teams to ensure our expansion bets are grounded in real operational and commercial realities. Stakeholder Communication: Effectively communicate expansion vision, strategy, risks, and progress to all levels of the organization. Create simple, compelling artifacts that enable fast, aligned decision?making around expansion investments. Mentorship and Team Development: Act as a mentor and coach for other product managers. Share your expertise on expansion, portfolio thinking, and lifecycle management to help build a world?class product team. Qualifications 6 years of product management experience, including significant ownership of products or initiatives that drove strategic expansion (new markets, segments, or lines of business) from concept through launch and scale. Proven ability to lead highly ambiguous problem spaces and drive a rigorous, outcome?oriented discovery process—balancing user needs, market dynamics, technical constraints, and business goals. Strong track record establishing and evolving best?in?class product practices for discovery, testing, and iteration with cross?functional partners. Demonstrated experience working with a platform that includes hardware?enabled or sensor?based systems in production environments, or strong adjacent experience with complex, multi?surface products. Deep fluency in using data, feedback, and operational metrics to inform strategy, while balancing real?world constraints and customer context. Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to align technical and non?technical stakeholders around complex expansion and platform tradeoffs. Startup or growth?stage experience, where product decisions had clear, visible business consequences (customer outcomes, revenue, retention, or operational impact). Bonus Points Experience building or extending hardware?enabled AI or computer vision products that rely on real?time device data and span on?device processing and cloud?based systems—with a clear link to improved outcomes or business performance. Experience in health tech, senior living, or other regulated or safety?critical environments where reliability, privacy, and trust are paramount. Experience managing or mentoring other product managers Details The annual salary for this role is $240,000–280,000 equity benefits (including medical, dental, and vision). Flexible PTO.
