Are you interested in harnessing technology and AI to transform healthcare?

 At XiFin, we believe a healthier, more efficient healthcare system starts with strong financial and operational foundations. Our innovative technologies help diagnostic providers, laboratories, and healthcare systems manage complexity, drive better outcomes, and stay focused on what matters most: patient care.

We’re on a mission to simplify the business side of healthcare—and we know that mission takes people from all backgrounds and experiences. Whether you’re early in your career or bringing years of expertise, we welcome your perspective, your curiosity, and your passion. We value individuals who ask questions, challenge the status quo, and want to grow while making a real difference.

About the Role

The Implementation Project Manager plays a critical role in activating value for our customers and for XiFin. In this role, you are accountable for ensuring customers successfully adopt XiFin’s solutions and reach go‑live in a timely, predictable manner in order to enable revenue activation, operational efficiency, and improved patient and provider outcomes. Beyond delivery, this role directly impacts the customer experience. You will serve as the central point of coordination and trust, guiding customers through complex implementations and ensuring they feel confident, supported, and set up for long‑term success.

The Manager owns the successful delivery of customer implementations across XiFin’s Empower RCM solution, as well as integrated product solutions supporting pharmacy‑based customers.

This role leads complex, multi‑workstream implementations that often include technical integrations, payer and trading partner dependencies, and clinical or pharmacy workflows. You are responsible for end‑to‑end execution from project kickoff through go‑live and stabilization.

Success in this role requires strong ownership, sound judgment, and the ability to bring structure to ambiguous environments while effectively navigating diverse stakeholders and priorities.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a team that values continuous learning, mentorship, and winning! This position will be located at our offices in San Diego, CA.
