Senior Product Manager

Senior Product Manager

Luna Health created Sleep-Only Automation — automated insulin delivery that works while you sleep and disappears when you wake. We're a venture-backed medical device startup built for the 65% of Type 1 diabetes, and 90+% of Type 2 diabetes insulin users who manage their days well and have made a considered choice to stay on pens. They don't need saving. They need protection while they sleep.

Our founders have lived this problem — as people with diabetes and as parents of children with diabetes — and built some of the most recognized products in the space. Now we are building the answer to a question the industry left unanswered: what do pen users need at night that no one has built yet. Sleep-Only Automation™ is it.

Nights protected. Days yours™.

The Role

We are looking for a Product Manager to translate our vision, product concepts, and roadmap priorities into scoped, shippable work and drive execution with engineering.

This is an in-office role in San Diego.

This is a hands-on execution role, not a strategy role. You will take high-level concepts and break them down into detailed business and functional requirements, acceptance criteria, and sprint-ready work items. You will be the bridge between “what we want to build” and “what engineering needs to build it.

You also need to test features with real users to ensure it delights.

Responsibilities

Requirements & Specification

• Take product concepts and features and translate them into detailed business and functional requirements documents, user stories, and acceptance criteria that engineering can build against.


• Break large initiatives into well-scoped work items with clear definitions of done.


• Define clear hypotheses for features in terms of measurable behavior change (e.g., “patients go from X to Y,” “clinicians reduce time from A to B minutes per month”).


• Write specifications that account for edge cases, error states, and safety considerations inherent in a medical device context.
  

Backlog & Prioritization

• Own and maintain the product backlog, ensuring it is polished, prioritized, and ready for sprint planning


• Balance the value proposition for customers (patients, HCPs, and payers) and business value creation (revenue, margins, strategic position) when sequencing work


• Make scope trade-off recommendations—knowing what to cut or defer is as important as knowing what to build

Engineering Collaboration

• Work side-by-side with engineers and designers day-to-day


• Collaborate on engineering trade-offs, discuss architecture decisions, and write specifications that engineers understand, respect, and can act on


• Use AI tools to build prototypes, mockups, and proof-of-concept flows—not just describe them


• Participate in “prototyping interviews”—rapidly building and iterating on flows to validate concepts before committing engineering resources

What You Bring

• 5+ years of product management experience with demonstrated success shipping products, ideally in environments where you were the bridge between leadership vision and engineering execution


• Proven ability to take an ambiguous concept and produce detailed, actionable requirements that an engineering team can build from


• Technical fluency: you can read a technical specification, understand system architecture trade-offs, and have productive conversations with engineers about implementation—you don’t need to write production code, but you need to understand it


• AI-first, human-led comfort: experienced using agentic AI tools to prototype, debug, and refine flows; can review and reason about AI-driven behavior


• Exceptional scope judgment: a track record of choosing what not to build, cutting scope effectively, and prioritizing the few things that matter most


• Strong written communication: your specifications, requirements docs, and user stories are clear, thorough, and respected by engineering


• A startup mindset: self-motivated, adaptable, and comfortable wearing multiple hats in a fast-moving environment


• Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field; advanced degree a plus

Nice to Have

• Experience in medical devices, regulated industries, healthcare, diabetes, or consumer health products


• Familiarity with FDA regulatory requirements and quality management systems

What we offer

• A no-jerk policy - we seek the best and brightest talent who are fun to work with


• Equity - we are just setting off on this journey, and you will get in from the start


• Excellent health benefits - we depend on it ourselves as a team that has or cares for people with diabetes
