Product Manager Principal - AI Transformation Incubator
About The Position
Capital Group aspires to be a leader among global asset managers in the adoption of AI to drive productivity and innovation. O ver the past two years, our AI investments have demonstrated clear enterprise value, and the emergence of Agentic AI marks a significant inflection point for the firm. The AI Transformation Incubator is a central innovation engine designed to identify, pilot, and scale a revolving portfolio of 3–4 high-impact, enterprise initiatives that reimagine end-to-end processes using advanced AI capabilities. As a Principal Product Manager, you will play a critical role in shaping and delivering these transformations—partnering deeply with business leaders, technologists, and risk partners to turn AI potential into measurable outcomes. This role combines strategic product leadership, hands-on execution, and exceptional stakeholder influence in a fast-moving, ambiguous environment.
Requirements
- 8+ years of experience in product management, including ownership of complex, cross-functional initiatives
- A proven ability to think strategically and execute tactically, often switching between the two multiple times per day
- Demonstrated success delivering products or platforms in highly ambiguous, fast-paced environments
- Strong AI fluency—you don’t need to build models, but you understand how modern AI systems work and how to productize them
- Exceptional interpersonal skills, with a track record of influencing without authority and building trust across senior stakeholders
- Comfort navigating risk, governance, and control considerations in regulated or complex environments
- A reputation as a thoughtful, credible product leader and partner
- Experience mentoring others and raising the quality of product practice around you
Responsibilities
- Shape a clear product vision and strategy for each incubated initiative, from problem definition through pilot and scale
- Balance central leverage and local ownership within Capital Group’s hub-and-spoke operating model
- Establish success metrics tied to realized business value, not just technical delivery
- Dive deep on a single high-impact AI initiative, managing discovery, experimentation, MVP delivery, and scale-out
- Translate ambiguous business problems into well-scoped product hypotheses, roadmaps, and backlogs
- Work closely with engineering, data science, UX, architecture, and risk partners to deliver solutions rapidly and responsibly
- Make pragmatic tradeoffs across scope, speed, risk, and value—while maintaining momentum
- Apply strong working knowledge of modern AI concepts (e.g., LLMs, agentic workflows, retrieval, orchestration, evaluation, and monitoring) to product decisions
- Ensure solutions are designed with responsible AI, governance, and control considerations embedded from the start
- Help codify reusable patterns, playbooks, and learnings to scale AI capabilities across Capital Group
- Act as a trusted product partner to business, technology, information security and legal/compliance leaders
- Facilitate alignment across diverse stakeholders with differing incentives and levels of AI maturity
- Communicate clearly and persuasively—whether in executive forums, working sessions, or written artifacts
- Mentor other product managers and help raise the overall bar for product thinking within the AI domain
