## About the role

Abridge was founded to power deeper understanding in healthcare. Our ambient AI platform transforms clinical conversations into high-quality documentation and is expanding into clinical workflows such as coding, clinical decision support, and care navigation. The quality of these products depends on the models beneath them - and on our ability to improve those models using signals that only Abridge can access at scale.

## What they're looking for

- 7+ years of product-management or closely related experience, including substantial ownership of ML-powered products, model platforms, or AI infrastructure
- A track record of turning ambiguous technical capabilities into shipped products and measurable user or business outcomes
- Strong working knowledge of the modern model-development lifecycle, including data strategy, fine-tuning and preference optimization, evaluation, inference, experimentation, and production monitoring
- The technical judgment to reason with ML scientists and engineers about training objectives, reward design, data quality, model selection, scaling, latency, and serving cost - without pretending to be the scientist in the room
- Strong product judgment about where proprietary models create durable differentiation versus where external models or conventional systems are the better choice
- Experience creating clarity across multiple teams: defining decision rights, sequencing dependencies, resolving disagreement, and maintaining speed in a high-ambiguity environment
