If you have a driving affinity for both innovation and efficiency, this position may be your perfect fit. We're seeking a very hands-on program manager with the capacity to plan and execute on ground-breaking new digital healthcare programs.
In the role of Livongo Program Manager, success using Agile development is a must, coupled with expertise using wikis and bug-tracking tools.
