Product Prize Designer (First Principles Thinker) at XPRIZE

Designs and develops large-scale global incentive competitions by applying first-principles thinking, research, and quantitative analysis to solve complex problems across energy, health, food, and other impact areas.

Mid Posted about 22 hours ago RemoteFirstJobs Product
What this role involves

XPRIZE Overview

XPRIZE is an established global leader in designing and executing large-scale competitions to solve humanity’s greatest challenges. As a 501©3, our unique model democratizes innovation by incentivizing crowd-sourced, scientifically viable solutions to create a more equitable and abundant future for all.  Since our founding in 1994, we’ve launched $519 million in prize competitions that are driving more than $31 billion in social and economic impact — a 60x return on philanthropic investment. These competitions not only de-risk early-stage breakthrough ideas but also mobilize capital, talent, and momentum to accelerate solutions from concept to real-world scale.

We operate across 5 areas of impact,including:

  • Deep Tech + Exploration
  • Energy + Climate + Nature
  • Food + Water + Waste
  • Health
  • Learning + Society

Join XPRIZE to help create meaningful impact as we strive to empower humanity to achieve breakthroughs and architect a more equitable and abundant future for all.

Position Description

XPRIZE is seeking a First-Principles Prize Designer to lead the development of bold, high-impact global incentive competitions that accelerate innovation for the benefit of humanity. The role functions as a product manager for Prize Design projects, combining research, quantitative reasoning, design thinking, and communication to produce competition designs that target the breakthroughs behind an equitable and abundant future.

What sets this role apart is how the work starts. Faced with a new problem, you start by building your own understanding from the ground up before turning to the literature. You develop a working sense of the problem’s scale and structure early, apply order-of-magnitude estimates and “whiteboard” the first-order math — enough to judge which incentives and metrics will meaningfully move the needle — then test those ideas against the world’s leading experts. Every prize shares some common themes, and you’re energized by the thought of being flexible and adaptable enough to apply that mental model across five diverse areas of impact at XPRIZE. You work closely with XPRIZE domain leaders and technology staff to explain your framing of the problem, refine the implications of your findings, and in doing so, create the next great XPRIZE.

From a technical perspective, the ideal candidate thinks like a scientist and communicates like a generalist. You are able to build a credible working model of an unfamiliar problem quickly, and know when to go deeper. This allows you to move (for example) from designing a prize around the next breakthrough in fusion energy, to the effects of AI on society, to biotech for spaceflight, all in the same year.

The First-Principles Prize Designer leads end-to-end design, from initial ideation through the XPRIZE Global Visioneering process, to delivery of the final design report. You steward every phase: defining the problem, choosing the most effective prize direction, setting competition criteria, establishing phases and milestones, and building budgets across the full lifecycle of a prize. You ensure that each concept is well-researched, feasible, fundable, and positioned to win funding from a future sponsor. You report to the Prize Design Director and work within structured, accelerated timelines alongside a Project Manager, Domain Leads, Advancement, and cross-functional partners in finance, marketing, and operations. The role also involves regular engagement with sponsors and subject matter experts to keep technical rigor and strategic impact aligned.

Prize Designers also steward XPRIZE’s design methodology, refining internal processes, capturing lessons learned, and representing the approach through thought leadership, workshops, and publications. Beyond individual projects, they contribute to organization-wide efforts such as Global Visioneering and other ideation that surfaces future XPRIZE opportunities.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the end-to-end design and development of XPRIZE competitions, from framing the problem and defining success metrics to conducting research, engaging stakeholders, shaping the prize model, and producing final design documentation. Work within a structured design process guided by the Prize Design Director and seek Director input at key decision points to stay aligned with organizational priorities and quality standards.
  • Operate with a high degree of self-direction between check-ins with the Prize Design Director. Proactively surface blockers, risks, and decisions that need Director input rather than waiting for scheduled touchpoints.
  • Adapt quickly when the Prize Design Director reprioritizes projects or shifts design direction mid-cycle, maintaining momentum and timelines.
  • Develop project plans, budgets, and timelines, coordinating with the Project Manager so deliverables meet deadlines and quality standards.
  • Work closely with internal teams and collaborators, keeping alignment with Domain Leads, leadership, and Advancement on strategy, content, and positioning. Fold operational, financial, and communications inputs from Finance, Marketing, and Operations into the prize model and documentation.
  • Identify and engage external experts and stakeholders, including designing and facilitating workshops, technical interviews, and other participatory research to inform design choices.
  • Facilitate productive sponsor relationships as requested, with clear communication, updates, and deliverables that align with sponsor goals and XPRIZE standards.
  • Contribute to organization-wide ideation and concept development such as Global Visioneering and prize ideation/ “Moonshot” workshops.
  • Maintain and improve XPRIZE’s prize design methodology by staying fluent in current processes and documentation, capturing lessons learned from past and active designs, and updating tools and practices. Serve as an internal resource on the prize design process and keep core documentation current.
  • Elevate XPRIZE’s prize design process externally through presentations, publications, website content, and thought leadership.

Qualifications

  • First-principles reasoning: builds a working understanding of an unfamiliar problem from first principles — developing a credible sense of scale, feasibility, and impact potential early enough to make good design decisions before investing significant time.
  • Cross-disciplinary range: moves comfortably across unrelated fields (e.g. Energy/Nature/Climate to Learning/Society) and knows how to reach design-credible competence in a new domain fast.
  • Education: Masters’ degree in a STEM field required. Recent PhD/post-doc encouraged. Candidates with equivalent analytical experience in rigorous, research-driven fields will be considered. Exceptional analytical and research experience in related disciplines may substitute for the education requirement.
  • Demonstrates basic ability to use dimensional analysis or order-of-magnitude estimates to constrain a new problem. The prepared candidate will benefit from a working level familiarity with the themes of “Order of Magnitude Physics: Understanding the World with Dimensional Analysis, Educated Guesswork and White Lies (Goldreich et al., available online for free).
  • Applies research, analytical, and creative problem-solving in fields such as engineering, physical or life sciences, data science, economics, or other rigor-driven domains.
  • Strong design and design-thinking skills: problem definition, decomposition into sub-problems, identifying the right problem to solve, and combining creative and analytical methods to find design elements.
  • Command of core product management: budgeting, contractual compliance, client relations, and project design, execution, evaluation, and delivery.
  • Produces high-quality research, analysis, and design deliverables under compressed timelines without losing rigor or accuracy.
  • Runs several active projects at once and reprioritizes quickly when organizational needs shift, keeping a direct supervisor informed when timelines are at risk or scope is evolving.
  • Comfortable taking direction from a senior design leader and executing independently within it. Knows what to decide alone and what to escalate.
  • Communicates clearly and credibly with experts and external stakeholders, orally and in writing, and matches style and standards to the audience.
  • Exceptionally strong technical presentation skills: able to adapt depth and framing for expert and non-expert audiences equally.
  • Familiar with research and data platforms (e.g. Google Scholar, PubMed, Scopus) and AI assisted research functions (e.g. Gemini Deep Research). Proficient with Microsoft Office and Google Workspace, and quick to pick up new productivity, research, and collaboration tools.

Competencies required for this role:

  • First-Principles Reasoning
  • Order-of-Magnitude Estimation
  • Analytical Problem-Solving
  • Feasibility Judgment
  • Cross-Disciplinary Range
  • Manages Ambiguity and Complexity
  • Nimble Learning, even in a new field
  • Situational Adaptability
  • Global Perspective
  • Communicates Effectively and Professionally
  • Collaborates Internally and Externally
  • Drives Vision and Purpose

In addition to working for a mission-driven company that catalyzes industries, pushes innovation forward, and is creating an abundant and equitable future, we offer the following benefits:

  • Remote-first environment (must live and work in the United States)

  • Generous Paid Parental Leave for all employees welcoming a new child to their family

Product Senior Technical Product Manager ( Remote Canada) at Smile Digital Health

Senior Technical Product Manager leads product strategy for healthcare data ingestion and master data management platforms, owning roadmaps for scalable data architecture and enterprise data pipeline transformation.

Senior Remote Posted about 22 hours ago RemoteFirstJobs Product
What this role involves

Working for a company like Smile Digital Health means supporting our mandate for #BetterGlobalHealth. We strive towards this goal every day, and the results can be seen in the impact of our innovative health data platform and data management solutions, which are used in over 20 countries. We were #19 on Deloitte’s Technology Fast 50 Ranking for 2024!

Smile Digital Health makes it easy for healthcare stakeholders to collect and exchange data with our leading FHIR-based data liberation platform.

At its heart, the Smile platform enables people and organizations to better manage healthcare data. We help generate and liberate structured healthcare data to ensure effective delivery across care teams and health systems bringing  #BetterGlobalHealth to patients everyday!

Apply today and find plenty of reasons to SMILE!

We are looking for a Senior Technical Product Manager to drive the next generation of our high-throughput, enterprise data ingestion and data management architecture. In this role, you will lead the strategic transformation of our Data Ingress Engine using technologies like Apache Spark, Databricks, and Medallion Lakehouse Architecture

You will also own the product roadmap for our core Master Data Management (MDM) and Data Remediation Engines, defining how millions of disparate clinical records are cleansed, matched into a single “Golden Patient Record,” and safely reprocessed when errors occur.

If you thrive at the intersection of distributed systems, high-volume streaming/batch data pipelines, and complex data models, this role is for you.

Responsibilities:

1. Data Ingress & Decoupled Architecture

  • Lead the product vision and roadmap to decouple core data ingestion modules from operational API boundaries, turning them into highly scalable, standalone micro-services.
  • Productize event-driven and streaming ingestion pipelines (e.g., Kafka/Spark Structured Streaming) capable of processing billions of high-velocity records.
  • Establish clear API contracts, event interfaces, and integration specs for external sources feeding raw payloads (HL7 v2, C-CDA, FHIR JSON, Claims) into our platform.

2. Big Data & Medallion Analytics Strategy

  • Define requirements for transitioning mass analytics pipelines onto a Databricks / Medallion Architecture using Apache Spark.
  • Drive the design of optimized Silver and Gold layer datasets, ensuring deeply nested JSON formats (e.g., FHIR) are efficiently flattened and structured into high-performance columnar models (Delta Lake/Parquet) for OLAP analytics.
  • Partner with engineering architects to balance real-time, low-latency micro-batches against cost-optimized, high-throughput daily batch workloads.

3. Master Data Management (MDM) & Identity Resolution

  • Own the product requirements for our FHIR-native MDM Engine, defining rules for deterministic and probabilistic patient matching at scale.
  • Productize Survivorship Logic to establish rules for creating and maintaining the “Golden Record” across fragmented data feeds.
  • Design crosswalk management capabilities to track source-to-target entity linkages across millions of patient lives.

4. Error Remediation & Exception Management

  • Build out the end-to-end exception lifecycle for data validation failures—from isolation in Dead-Letter Queues (DLQs) to structured error reporting.
  • Define requirements for Data Steward interfaces and APIs, allowing users to review validation exceptions, perform manual record merges/unmerges, and correct bad data payloads.
  • Architect Idempotent Replay Mechanisms to re-ingest corrected payloads through Spark processing pipelines without generating duplicate data or corrupting state.

Requirements:

Must have Experience

  • 5+ years of Technical Product Management experience leading complex backend data platforms, distributed data engineering products, or big-data ingestion systems.
  • Hands-on Distributed Computing Knowledge: Proven track record productizing solutions powered by Apache Spark (batch or streaming) and distributed data processing frameworks.
  • Databricks / Lakehouse Expertise: Deep familiarity with Medallion Architecture (Bronze/Silver/Gold) and Delta Lake/Parquet performance patterns.
  • OLAP / Columnar Strategy Mindset: Demonstrated experience optimizing complex, highly nested arrays and hierarchical data structures for analytical query engines.
  • Identity & Governance: Direct experience productizing Master Data Management (MDM), entity resolution, or identity matching tools.
  • Fault-Tolerant Systems: Experience with event-driven architectures, Dead-Letter Queues (DLQs), and data replay/remediation workflows.
  • Technical Proficiency: Ability to comfortably write and execute SQL and Python to analyze raw datasets, validate engine output, and define logic rules

Nice-to-Have Experience

  • Experience with healthcare data standards, including HL7 FHIR, C-CDA, or HL7 v2.
  • Exposure to healthcare terminologies (SNOMED CT, LOINC, RxNorm, ICD-10).
  • Familiarity with SQL-on-FHIR analytics standards.

$120,000 - $145,000 a year

You’ll have real ownership over a defined slice of the journey, with the data, experimentation muscle, and cross-functional partners to move it.

What we value

  • Customer empathy — you dig into what’s actually slowing customers down, not just what the dashboard says.
  • Bias to experiment — you’d rather run a test than debate an opinion.
  • Clear communication — you make complex tradeoffs easy for others to follow.
  • Ownership without ego — you drive your area forward and know when to ask for help.

What you’ll do

  • Own the product experience of the self-serve journey for a defined set of surfaces — from signup and onboarding through activation and upgrade.
  • Find and resolve friction points using data, experimentation, and customer insight.
  • Define and track success metrics for activation, retention, and monetization.
  • Partner with Marketing, CX, and Design to keep the experience consistent across touchpoints.
  • Work with Engineering to scope and deliver improvements that reduce time-to-value.
  • Run A/B tests and growth experiments to find what drives conversion and engagement.
  • Communicate priorities and progress clearly across teams and leadership.

What we’re looking for

  • 3+ years of product management experience in SaaS, ideally with self-serve or product-led growth exposure.
  • Experience using or developing AI-powered tooling in your product workflow
  • A track record of improving activation or retention metrics.
  • Strong analytical and experimentation skills — data-driven but comfortable with ambiguity.
  • Experience collaborating across Product, Marketing, and CX.
  • A clear communicator who simplifies complexity and drives alignment.
  • Deep curiosity about what helps customers succeed.
  • Comfort working autonomously in a remote, async-first environment.

Compensation & Benefits

We believe in transparency. Starting salary for this role is $137k–$156k USD (or equivalent in local currency) depending on experience and subject to market rate adjustment.

Zone 1: $164,400–$187,200.

Zone 2: $150,700–$171,600.

Zone 3: $137,000–$156,000.

We know our people are what make us great, and we’re committed to taking great care of them. Our inclusive benefits package supports your well-being and growth, including 100% coverage of medical, dental, vision, mental health, and supplemental insurance premiums for you and your family. We also offer 16 weeks paid parental leave, unlimited PTO, stipends for remote work and wellness, a professional development budget, and more.

See full benefits here →

Our Process

No gotchas, no trick questions - just a clear, human process designed to help both of us make an informed decision.

  1. 30-minute call with a Recruiter
  2. 30-minute video call with the Hiring Manager
  3. 60-minute Product Case discussion with Engineering team members
  4. 60-minute Product Case Review call with a panel

All final candidates will be asked to complete a background check and employment verifications as part of our pre-employment process.

Customer.io recognizes the stifling impact of systemic injustice on diverse communities. We commit to using our influence to increase inclusion and equity within the tech industry. We strive to build an inclusive team culture, implement bias-free hiring practices, and develop community partnerships to expand our global impact.

Zoom is the only video conference platform that we use, virtual interviews will be conducted using the video capability (i.e., not via the chat), and offers will be extended in writing on official Customer.io letterhead. Please be vigilant in all of your job search activity, and if you have any questions please contact jobs@customer.io.

Product Prize Designer (First Principles Thinker) at XPRIZE

Design large-scale global incentive competitions by researching problems from first principles, developing competition frameworks, and collaborating with domain experts to drive innovation.

Mid Posted about 22 hours ago RemoteFirstJobs Product
What this role involves

XPRIZE Overview

XPRIZE is an established global leader in designing and executing large-scale competitions to solve humanity’s greatest challenges. As a 501©3, our unique model democratizes innovation by incentivizing crowd-sourced, scientifically viable solutions to create a more equitable and abundant future for all.  Since our founding in 1994, we’ve launched $519 million in prize competitions that are driving more than $31 billion in social and economic impact — a 60x return on philanthropic investment. These competitions not only de-risk early-stage breakthrough ideas but also mobilize capital, talent, and momentum to accelerate solutions from concept to real-world scale.

We operate across 5 areas of impact,including:

  • Deep Tech + Exploration
  • Energy + Climate + Nature
  • Food + Water + Waste
  • Health
  • Learning + Society

Join XPRIZE to help create meaningful impact as we strive to empower humanity to achieve breakthroughs and architect a more equitable and abundant future for all.

Position Description

XPRIZE is seeking a First-Principles Prize Designer to lead the development of bold, high-impact global incentive competitions that accelerate innovation for the benefit of humanity. The role functions as a product manager for Prize Design projects, combining research, quantitative reasoning, design thinking, and communication to produce competition designs that target the breakthroughs behind an equitable and abundant future.

What sets this role apart is how the work starts. Faced with a new problem, you start by building your own understanding from the ground up before turning to the literature. You develop a working sense of the problem’s scale and structure early, apply order-of-magnitude estimates and “whiteboard” the first-order math — enough to judge which incentives and metrics will meaningfully move the needle — then test those ideas against the world’s leading experts. Every prize shares some common themes, and you’re energized by the thought of being flexible and adaptable enough to apply that mental model across five diverse areas of impact at XPRIZE. You work closely with XPRIZE domain leaders and technology staff to explain your framing of the problem, refine the implications of your findings, and in doing so, create the next great XPRIZE.

From a technical perspective, the ideal candidate thinks like a scientist and communicates like a generalist. You are able to build a credible working model of an unfamiliar problem quickly, and know when to go deeper. This allows you to move (for example) from designing a prize around the next breakthrough in fusion energy, to the effects of AI on society, to biotech for spaceflight, all in the same year.

The First-Principles Prize Designer leads end-to-end design, from initial ideation through the XPRIZE Global Visioneering process, to delivery of the final design report. You steward every phase: defining the problem, choosing the most effective prize direction, setting competition criteria, establishing phases and milestones, and building budgets across the full lifecycle of a prize. You ensure that each concept is well-researched, feasible, fundable, and positioned to win funding from a future sponsor. You report to the Prize Design Director and work within structured, accelerated timelines alongside a Project Manager, Domain Leads, Advancement, and cross-functional partners in finance, marketing, and operations. The role also involves regular engagement with sponsors and subject matter experts to keep technical rigor and strategic impact aligned.

Prize Designers also steward XPRIZE’s design methodology, refining internal processes, capturing lessons learned, and representing the approach through thought leadership, workshops, and publications. Beyond individual projects, they contribute to organization-wide efforts such as Global Visioneering and other ideation that surfaces future XPRIZE opportunities.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the end-to-end design and development of XPRIZE competitions, from framing the problem and defining success metrics to conducting research, engaging stakeholders, shaping the prize model, and producing final design documentation. Work within a structured design process guided by the Prize Design Director and seek Director input at key decision points to stay aligned with organizational priorities and quality standards.
  • Operate with a high degree of self-direction between check-ins with the Prize Design Director. Proactively surface blockers, risks, and decisions that need Director input rather than waiting for scheduled touchpoints.
  • Adapt quickly when the Prize Design Director reprioritizes projects or shifts design direction mid-cycle, maintaining momentum and timelines.
  • Develop project plans, budgets, and timelines, coordinating with the Project Manager so deliverables meet deadlines and quality standards.
  • Work closely with internal teams and collaborators, keeping alignment with Domain Leads, leadership, and Advancement on strategy, content, and positioning. Fold operational, financial, and communications inputs from Finance, Marketing, and Operations into the prize model and documentation.
  • Identify and engage external experts and stakeholders, including designing and facilitating workshops, technical interviews, and other participatory research to inform design choices.
  • Facilitate productive sponsor relationships as requested, with clear communication, updates, and deliverables that align with sponsor goals and XPRIZE standards.
  • Contribute to organization-wide ideation and concept development such as Global Visioneering and prize ideation/ “Moonshot” workshops.
  • Maintain and improve XPRIZE’s prize design methodology by staying fluent in current processes and documentation, capturing lessons learned from past and active designs, and updating tools and practices. Serve as an internal resource on the prize design process and keep core documentation current.
  • Elevate XPRIZE’s prize design process externally through presentations, publications, website content, and thought leadership.

Qualifications

  • First-principles reasoning: builds a working understanding of an unfamiliar problem from first principles — developing a credible sense of scale, feasibility, and impact potential early enough to make good design decisions before investing significant time.
  • Cross-disciplinary range: moves comfortably across unrelated fields (e.g. Energy/Nature/Climate to Learning/Society) and knows how to reach design-credible competence in a new domain fast.
  • Education: Masters’ degree in a STEM field required. Recent PhD/post-doc encouraged. Candidates with equivalent analytical experience in rigorous, research-driven fields will be considered. Exceptional analytical and research experience in related disciplines may substitute for the education requirement.
  • Demonstrates basic ability to use dimensional analysis or order-of-magnitude estimates to constrain a new problem. The prepared candidate will benefit from a working level familiarity with the themes of “Order of Magnitude Physics: Understanding the World with Dimensional Analysis, Educated Guesswork and White Lies (Goldreich et al., available online for free).
  • Applies research, analytical, and creative problem-solving in fields such as engineering, physical or life sciences, data science, economics, or other rigor-driven domains.
  • Strong design and design-thinking skills: problem definition, decomposition into sub-problems, identifying the right problem to solve, and combining creative and analytical methods to find design elements.
  • Command of core product management: budgeting, contractual compliance, client relations, and project design, execution, evaluation, and delivery.
  • Produces high-quality research, analysis, and design deliverables under compressed timelines without losing rigor or accuracy.
  • Runs several active projects at once and reprioritizes quickly when organizational needs shift, keeping a direct supervisor informed when timelines are at risk or scope is evolving.
  • Comfortable taking direction from a senior design leader and executing independently within it. Knows what to decide alone and what to escalate.
  • Communicates clearly and credibly with experts and external stakeholders, orally and in writing, and matches style and standards to the audience.
  • Exceptionally strong technical presentation skills: able to adapt depth and framing for expert and non-expert audiences equally.
  • Familiar with research and data platforms (e.g. Google Scholar, PubMed, Scopus) and AI assisted research functions (e.g. Gemini Deep Research). Proficient with Microsoft Office and Google Workspace, and quick to pick up new productivity, research, and collaboration tools.

Competencies required for this role:

  • First-Principles Reasoning
  • Order-of-Magnitude Estimation
  • Analytical Problem-Solving
  • Feasibility Judgment
  • Cross-Disciplinary Range
  • Manages Ambiguity and Complexity
  • Nimble Learning, even in a new field
  • Situational Adaptability
  • Global Perspective
  • Communicates Effectively and Professionally
  • Collaborates Internally and Externally
  • Drives Vision and Purpose

Why Work at XPRIZE:

In addition to working for a mission-driven company that catalyzes industries, pushes innovation forward, and is creating an abundant and equitable future, we offer the following benefits:

  • Remote-first environment (must live and work in the United States)
  • Quarterly company-paid All-Hands meetings in Los Angeles for frequent in-person collaboration
  • Employee and dependent medical, dental, and vision options
  • A 401(K) program with employer match
  • Ample paid time off, including vacation, floating holidays, sick days, and company-paid holidays
  • An Employee Assistance Program for confidential, professional support with personal, family, or other challenges
  • Employee stipends/reimbursements for cell phone, internet, health & wellbeing, and learning & development
  • Generous Paid Parental Leave for all employees welcoming a new child to their family
  • One meeting-free block per week and four focus weeks per year to ensure uninterrupted time for strategic projects

The anticipated base salary for this position is $120,000 to $140,000 and may also qualify for an annualincentive. The actual base salary offered will depend on a variety of factors including the qualifications of the individual applicant, years of relevant experience for therole, level of education attained, and certifications and/or other licenses held. XPRIZE is a remote-first environment. All employees must be authorized to work in the United States and work from within the United States full-time.

The XPRIZE FOUNDATION is an equal opportunity employer and does not unlawfully discriminate in employment. Equal access to employment, services, and programs is available to all persons. Those applicants requiring reasonable accommodation to the application and/or interview process should notify a representative of the organization.

Please note: Though submitting a resume to the XPRIZE FOUNDATION implies that you are interested in a position(s), it does not imply that you are an applicant. You are not considered an applicant until you have been contacted directly by a Talent Acquisitions representative requesting that you begin the designated application process, which may involve phone and/or in-person interview(s), job-related testing, and background checks.
