The flagship product—an AI-driven, non-invasive cardiac test supported by the ACC/AHA Chest Pain Guidelines called the Heartflow FFRCT Analysis—provides a color-coded, 3D model of a patient’s coronary arteries indicating the impact blockages have on blood flow to the heart. Heartflow is the first AI-driven non-invasive integrated heart care solution across the CCTA pathway that helps clinicians identify stenoses in the coronary arteries (RoadMap™Analysis), assess coronary blood flow (FFRCT Analysis), and characterize and quantify coronary atherosclerosis (Plaque Analysis).

Heartflow is a publicly traded company (HTFL) that has received international recognition for exceptional strides in healthcare innovation, is supported by medical societies around the world, cleared for use in the US, UK, Europe, Japan and Canada, and has been used for more than 750,000 patients worldwide.

Corporate Strategy at Heartflow helps answer the company’s most important questions: where should we play, how will we win, what should we prioritize, and how should the company evolve as it scales. As Manager, Corporate Strategy, you will partner with executive leadership to shape enterprise strategy, assess new markets and portfolio opportunities, translate strategy into the long-range plan, and drive a small number of high-priority initiatives that cut across functions. You will combine rigorous analytics, strategic judgment, and executive communication to turn ambiguous questions into clear choices and action. This role is fundamentally about setting direction, sharpening choices, and helping Heartflow make better enterprise-level decisions.

Size opportunities, assess strategic fit and right-to-win, and develop clear recommendations on where to invest, sequence, or deprioritize.

Build fact-based cases that help leadership prioritize investments, sequence capabilities, allocate resources across the portfolio, and make explicit stop-doing decisions.
Value Creation & Performance Management: Translate strategic priorities into clear objectives, milestones, owners, and measures of value. Establish practical governance and management routines that surface issues early and keep major initiatives tied to enterprise outcomes.

Decision Support & Strategic Intelligence

Executive & Board Decision Support: Develop strategy narratives, decision memos, and leadership and board materials that synthesize complex information into a clear strategic rationale, financial implications, key risks, and recommended path forward.
Competitive, Market & Industry Intelligence: Build a forward-looking view of the forces shaping Heartflow’s business, including competitors, technology, reimbursement, clinical evidence, customer behavior, and broader healthcare trends, and translate those signals into implications for strategy.
