## About the role

We are seeking an exceptional Manager, Product Applied Science to build and lead a team at the core of Garner's product. Our members rely on us to answer hard questions — Which doctor should I see?

- Deep technical credibility, with the range and judgment to lead scientists who are experts in their own right, and the willingness to stay hands-on
- Strong judgment in choosing between statistical models, heuristics, optimization approaches, and simpler algorithmic methods depending on the problem
- Strong applied problem-solving skills, with the ability to define good metrics and then deliver solutions that improve them
- A bias toward action, quickly translating ideas into working prototypes to test approaches
- Strong communication skills, including at the executive level, with a track record of driving alignment across teams and functions
