### Note: This is a Pipeline Opening and Not Tied to A Specific Opening

The AI Product Manager owns strategy, roadmap, and delivery for AI initiatives across the enterprise. This role translates business objectives into a clear prioritized backlog, collaborating with engineering teams and external partners to deliver impactful solutions that drive measurable business impact through revenue growth or new operational efficiencies. The Product Manager works closely with Global Data Product Management, including Data and MDM, to ensure AI products are built on trusted, standardized data foundations. The role requires strong judgment in application integrations and build vs. buy tradeoffs, balancing speed, cost, and enterprise standards.

### Cross‑Functional Leadership

Lead squads spanning ML Engineering, MLOps, Data Engineering, Analytics, and Business stakeholders; keep scope, risks, and dependencies visible.

### Partnerships

Collaborate with Director, ML and AI, Security, Legal, Procurement, and Global Data Product Management (Data and MDM) to align standards, governance, and delivery.

- 5+ years in product management with shipped data or AI features tied to measurable outcomes.
