Sr Product Owner, Digital Solutions

Boston Scientific

Alicia comes to us with a robust background in digital product development across healthcare and medical device industries, currently serving as a Senior Product Owner in Boston Scientific’s Cardiology Marketing and Digital Enablement team.

Previously, at Optum Financial, she led the implementation and development of an enterprise payment platform, offering patients and consumers a single login to access a digital wallet experience. She drove cross-functional collaboration, overseeing the deployment of new features, integrations, and managing third-party relationships to continuously enhance the product.

Prior to Optum Financial, she held previous digital product roles at Boston Scientific. She managed a barcode scanner app that simplified the device ordering process. While there she successfully implemented agile processes and facilitated customer-centric enhancements through virtual feedback sessions.

She also spent a decade in digital roles at UnitedHealth Care, beginning her career as a web developer consultant and moving into business analysis and ultimately digital product management positions.

Additionally, she recently earned a Graduate Certificate in the Digital Experience from the University of St. Thomas in Minneapolis.
