Principal Product Manager

Oracle Health is seeking an experienced Principal Product Manager to shape the future of Health Data Intelligence Population Health applications. This senior individual contributor will define product strategy, lead roadmap development, and drive execution for enterprise application workflows that help healthcare organizations improve population health, succeed under value-based care arrangements, manage clinical risk, and optimize contract performance.

This role will own product capabilities across value-based contracts, care management, and adjacent provider and payer workflows. The Principal Product Manager will work at the intersection of healthcare strategy, clinical operations, payer administration, enterprise application design, data intelligence, analytics, and AI-assisted workflows.
