About TouchCare
TouchCare is a healthcare advocacy and benefits navigation company dedicated to simplifying the healthcare experience for employees and their families. We help members navigate the complexities of healthcare and employee benefits, connecting them with personalized guidance, resources, and support when they need it most.
As we continue to grow, we're investing in technology, product innovation, and artificial intelligence to create smarter, more seamless experiences for our members, clients, and internal teams.
The Product Lead is the mini-CEO of one TouchCare product. You own where it goes and why: market and user research, strategy, roadmap and evolution. You also build: you prototype and ship with AI coding tools like Claude Design and Claude Code, not only write specs for others.
The work runs on two tracks. The incremental track delivers what the product needs in the short to mid term. The innovation track cultivates experimentation over the longer term, so we learn which moonshots are worth pursuing.
You'll run a pod with a Builder-Architect, a vibe-coding engineer who owns architecture and production quality. Together you take the product from insight to shipped, fast. You report to the VP of Product, Innovation & AI Strategy.
This is a two-in-one role for people who enjoy both halves, deciding what to build and building it. Think of it as a Product Manager and an AI builder in one person. We aren't looking for a traditional PM who hands off to engineering, or an engineer who waits for requirements.
What you'll do
- Own the product's direction. Set its strategy and roadmap, and recommend what to build next and what to stop.
- Run the research yourself. Talk to members, health assistants, sales and clients. Size the market, study competitors, and turn what you learn into decisions.
- Build and prototype. Use Claude Design & Claude Code and other AI tools to turn ideas into working prototypes in days, and ship smaller changes yourself.
- Ship with your Builder-Architect. You own what gets built and why; they own how it holds up in production. Both of you build.
- Run both tracks. Deliver the incremental roadmap while running experiments with real users to find the product's longer-term moonshots. Measure what worked and kill what didn't.
- Keep the experience consistent. Design in Figma and AI design tools, working from TouchCare's existing design system, so the product looks and feels right without a dedicated designer.
- Bring people along. Keep leadership, operations and sales informed on what's shipping and why.
What we're looking for
Product judgment is the non-negotiable half. Building is a strong plus we expect to see, at the level of prototyping and shipping small things, not production engineering.
Must-haves
- A track record of owning a product's direction and outcomes, not only a backlog
- Hands-on user and market research: you've run interviews and turned findings into decisions
- Sharp prioritization: you can say no and explain why
- Clear writing and communication with both executives and frontline teams
- Genuine enjoyment of both halves of this role: deciding and building
Strong plus
- You already build with AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Lovable or similar) and can show something you made
- Hands-on design skills, especially Figma. Although we hope to lean on AI as much as possible, they may still be a need to do design work in Figma too, within our existing design system
- Comfort working with APIs and data, and debugging your own prototypes
- A record of running experiments and reading the results honestly
Nice to have
- Experience in healthcare, benefits or health navigation
- Familiarity with HIPAA and building products that handle protected health information
- Startup experience, where you wore several hats
Why Join TouchCare?
At TouchCare, you'll have the opportunity to help build, not simply maintain.
We're entering an exciting phase of product and technology investment, with a focus on leveraging AI to create meaningful improvements in healthcare navigation and service delivery.
This role offers the opportunity to:
Shape the future: Influence product direction and help define how AI transforms healthcare advocacy.
Make a tangible impact: Design experiences that simplify healthcare for real people and the teams supporting them.
Build from the ground up: Establish design systems, processes, and product experiences with significant ownership.
Collaborate with leadership: Work directly with senior leaders who are invested in innovation and growth.
Move with purpose: Join a collaborative, entrepreneurial environment where ideas can quickly become meaningful products.
If you're passionate about designing intelligent, human-centered products and excited by the opportunity to build what's next in healthcare technology, we'd love to meet you.
TouchCare is an equal opportunity employer committed to creating an inclusive and supportive workplace.

Product Manager Jobs in Connecticut: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a product manager in Connecticut?
Product management in Connecticut requires no state-issued license or registration, so the path runs through education and demonstrated experience. Most Connecticut employers expect a bachelor's degree in business, computer science, engineering, or a related field, with an MBA valued at larger firms in Stamford and Hartford. Building a portfolio of product work, earning a recognized certification such as AIPMM or Pragmatic Institute credentials, and gaining experience in Connecticut's dominant industries including insurance, fintech, or defense technology strengthens a candidacy significantly.
How much do product managers make in Connecticut?
Product managers in Connecticut earn a median of about $169,240 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $101,330 for the lowest 10% to over $283,930 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire product managers in Connecticut?
Companies currently hiring product managers in Connecticut include Pratt & Whitney, Continuum of Care, and Collins Aerospace, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Connecticut's concentration of insurance carriers, financial institutions, and defense contractors means product managers with domain expertise in regulated industries are especially competitive in this market.
Which Connecticut cities have the most product manager jobs?
Hartford, New Haven, and East Hartford account for the largest share of product manager openings in Connecticut. Stamford draws heavily from its financial services and media company base, Hartford anchors insurance and healthcare technology hiring, and New Haven benefits from Yale's research ecosystem and a growing biotech and health-tech corridor that supports both startup and enterprise product roles.
Are there remote product manager jobs in Connecticut?
Yes, and more than most fields. About 56% of product manager openings tied to Connecticut are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting how well the role translates to distributed work. Strategic planning, roadmap development, and cross-functional coordination are the functions most commonly done remotely, while roles requiring close collaboration with hardware or on-site engineering teams in Connecticut's defense and manufacturing sectors tend to remain in-person.
How can I get hired as a product manager in Connecticut with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is moving into product from an adjacent role such as business analyst, project coordinator, or UX researcher, all of which exist in volume at Connecticut's large insurance and financial services employers. Cigna, Travelers, and Hartford Financial Services regularly bring on associate product managers and rotational program participants from these lateral tracks. Building a case study portfolio, earning a foundational product certification, and targeting companies with formal early-career development programs in Hartford and Stamford gives candidates without a traditional product title a credible starting point.
