Product Owner- Radoligy / CT Scan / MRI / X ray

ob Description: Product Owner – AI-Enabled Radiology Patient Workflow Management

Role Overview:

We are seeking a highly skilled Product Owner to lead the development of an AI-enabled product focused on optimizing patient workflows within radiology departments. The ideal candidate will have strong product-thinking abilities, understanding of radiology workflows, and hands-on experience collaborating with crossfunctional teams (engineering, AI/ML, UX, clinical SMEs). This role is responsible for shaping the product vision, translating business and clinical needs into a structured backlog, and ensuring timely delivery of high-impact features that improve patient throughput, operational efficiency, and workflow predictability.

Key Responsibilities

1. Requirements Discovery & Radiology Workflow Analysis

• Lead discussions with multiple stakeholders, modality technologists, operations managers, and business teams to gather functional and non-functional requirements.

• Understand radiologyspecific workflows including:

  • Modality scheduling (MRI/CT/X-ray/Ultrasound)

  • Patient preparation & movement

  • Safety checks, screening workflows

  • Scan execution, reporting, post-processing, and handoffs

• Map endtoend patient journeys within the radiology department, identifying inefficiencies and AI intervention points.

---

2. Backlog Definition & Continuous Refinement

• Translate workflow needs into a clear backlog using Theme → Epic → Feature → User Story structure.

• Ensure all work items meet Feature Definition Templates, include detailed acceptance criteria, and satisfy Definition of Ready (DoR) before PI commitment.

• Drive continuous refinement with engineering, AI/ML, and UX teams.

---

3. Prioritization & Product Roadmap Ownership

• Own backlog prioritization, balancing:

  • Operational efficiency in radiology

  • AI model readiness and data quality

  • Modality-specific constraints

  • Dependencies across hospital systems

• Build and maintain a clear roadmap aligned with clinical and business objectives.

---

4. Stakeholder Alignment & Communication

• Demonstrate strong communication, influencing, and negotiation skills to align technologists, administrators, and technical teams.

• Convert unstructured or ambiguous business requests into clear, mature, and prioritized product increments.

• Facilitate requirement workshops, trade-off discussions, and decision-making sessions.

---

5. Technical & AI Understanding

• Possess working knowledge of:

  • AI/ML systems involved in patient flow prediction, exam-duration estimation, slot optimization, workload balancing, etc.

  • Computer vision components (if applied to patient movement, modality room readiness, safety checks).

  • Understand how technology choices impact workflow predictability and patient throughput.

---

6. Agile / SAFe Execution

• Participate in PI Planning, sprint ceremonies, and cross-team coordination.

• Drive system demos, showcasing improvements to radiology workflows, throughput KPIs, room utilization, and AI-driven predictions.

• Accept completed features after validating adherence to Definition of Done (DoD) and clinical relevance.

---

7. Quality, Usability & Clinical Safety

• Ensure solutions are intuitive for radiology personas (technologists, radiologists, administrators, schedulers).

• Identify workflow risks, patient safety considerations, and operational gaps early in the design.

• Advocate for user-centric design with strong focus on reliability and clinical safety.

---

Qualifications & Experience

Required

• 7–10 years of experience as a Product Owner/Product Manager, preferably in healthcare or imaging.

• Strong understanding of radiology workflows, modality operations, scheduling, and patient flow dynamics.

• Working knowledge of AI/ML-driven products, workflow automation, or clinical decision support tools.

• Proficiency in Agile/Scrum/SAFe methodologies; certification preferred.

• Excellent stakeholder management, communication, and analytical skills.

Preferred

• Experience working with radiology teams or imaging centers.

• Understanding of operational KPIs (e.g., modality utilization, wait-time reduction, no-show prediction, patient throughput).

• Exposure to regulatory and medical software quality standards.
