You are a technologist-first strategist who actively tracks, evaluates, and experiments with emerging AI capabilities—forming clear, actionable perspectives on what matters, what doesn’t, and what our company should do next. You combine hands-on awareness of evolving AI tools with cross-industry pattern recognition to identify opportunities that will redefine member, advocate, and broker experiences. You partner closely with product, experience, strategy, and partnerships teams to ensure our AI roadmap reflects not just current needs, but the future of intelligent, personalized healthcare experiences. Your work informs what we build, what we partner for, and where we differentiate, helping leadership make confident, forward-looking decisions.
