Behavioral Health Program Manager, Principal - Product Strategy

Your Work

As the Program Manager, Principal, Product Strategy, you will play a central role in supporting the strategic development, evaluation, and execution of our behavioral health product portfolio. Working closely with the Director of Behavioral Health Product, and in collaboration with the Director of Partnerships & Programs, you will help translate strategy into execution across multiple initiatives that span clinical, technical, and policy domains.

This is a cross-functional role that blends product development, health policy, and external engagement. You will help manage the behavioral health product lifecycle, from market research and stakeholder engagement to business case development and implementation oversight. At the same time, you will contribute to external-facing efforts including policy positioning, grant strategy, and partnerships with academic institutions, nonprofits, and community organizations.

You will bring a rigorous, systems-level mindset to evaluating behavioral health gaps, identifying opportunities for innovation, and helping teams navigate complex regulatory, consumer, and equity considerations. Your work will influence how we design behavioral health programs, measure their success, and communicate their value, internally and externally.
