You’ll get paid more as a PM in healthcare tech. ‘Y background is in tech and healthcare tech. You say you’re already a PM in healthcare? What types of projects do you manage in healthcare that are non-tech, construction?
The biggest thing is understanding how applications interact with infrastructure such as storage, general networking, secure connections with certificates since many systems are SaaS based, authentication, HL7 interfaces, etc.
If you don’t have a tech background I just spoke another language from your perspective. With no tech background I don’t see you getting PM roles in a straight up tech company, like NVidia. You’d have a much better of shot at transitioning to technical projects within healthcare. Get your experience there. When there are concepts being discussed you don’t understand use AI to learn about it, and maybe pick the brains of the technical resources.
From there you could transition to the vendor side. Implementing systems for healthcare tech companies. There’s good money in that.
Basic sql, understanding of db architecture, Microsoft visio, to name a few
