Lead Product Manager, AI

Humana • New York, NY

5d • $151,600 - $208,400 • Hybrid

About The Position

As Humana continues its transformation into an AI-first enterprise, we are looking for a hands-on, technically proficient Lead Product Manager to lead the design, prototyping, and scaling of AI solutions across our business. You will work with cross-functional teams of engineers, designers, data scientists, and business stakeholders to build AI-powered solutions that solve real enterprise problems. You will lead and drive a complex product area within our AI portfolio, define what success looks like, build and develop with the team, and drive results across the organization, moving from deeply understanding a business challenge to prototyping an AI solution, to proving its value, to delivering it through Humana's enterprise AI governance process.

Requirements

• 7+ years of product or related experience, including 4+ years in product management, with AI/ML or GenAI products shipped to production.
• Bachelor’s degree in computer science, engineering, or a related field, or an equivalent combination of experience.
• You use AI tools regularly and can articulate specifically what you would change about a model's behavior and why. You prototype your own ideas.
• You have built evals, including golden sets, ground truth, and offline and live evals, and used precision- and recall-based metrics to make product decisions.
• When you find a problem, you build the infrastructure that prevents the whole class of problem.
• You move between business and technical concepts, with a track record of business cases, ROI models, and roadmaps that inform investment decisions.
• A working understanding of modern AI/ML and GenAI (LLMs, agents, RAG, prompt engineering, and Evaluation methodology) and how it applies to enterprise problems.

Nice To Haves

• Experience in healthcare, insurance, or another regulated industry.
• A well-supported point of view on where agentic AI, evals, and AI-native product development are headed.
• Hands-on experience with agent frameworks, GraphRAG / knowledge graphs, and reusable skills / plugins.
• Comfort with ambiguity and a fast pace, working from first principles.

Responsibilities

• Define the vision, strategy, and roadmap for a complex AI product area. Decide what to build and why, prioritize across competing opportunities, and adapt as the model landscape and the business change.
• Partner directly with business units to map their operations end to end (service design), then translate ambiguous business problems into clearly scoped AI use cases with a clear value proposition, business case, and ROI justification.
• Build working prototypes and demos yourself using agentic coding and AI tools (for example, Claude Code, Cursor, OpenAI Codex) to test feasibility and value before committing a full team.
• Turn validated use cases into clear, buildable requirements, user stories, acceptance criteria, edge cases, and success metrics, so engineers, data scientists, and designers know exactly what "done" and "good" mean. Shape the end-to-end user experience with design, since enterprise adoption lives or dies on usability.
• Drive the build from prototype to production and own the backlog, sequence the work, make scope and tradeoff calls as models and constraints shift, unblock the team, and keep momentum from first demo through launch and iteration.
• Own how quality is defined and measured. Build golden sets and ground truth, run offline and live (production) evals, choose appropriate metrics (accuracy, precision, recall, F1, task success, hallucination rate), apply LLM-as-judge where it has been validated, and turn results into launch decisions and readouts for leadership.
• Support high-level architecture and feasibility discussions with engineering, while owning the required prompt engineering and/or skill creation components of the AI harness.
• Lead engineers, data scientists, designers, and business partners without direct authority. Author reusable playbooks, skills, and solution patterns that make AI delivery faster and more consistent across the organization.
• Move solutions through Humana's enterprise AI governance (AIRB, LRC, Responsible AI Council), owning the product documentation, scorecards, and stage-gate reviews.
• Communicate strategy, requirements, roadmap, ROI, and eval results clearly to executive and technical audiences. Mentor product managers and raise the team's standard for building with AI.
• Track advances in models, agents, evals, and emerging techniques (agent harness, loop, and graph / GraphRAG approaches) and apply them in your portfolio.
