<ul class="ul1"> <li class="li1">Own product strategy and roadmap for claims automation — spanning data extraction/entry, enrichment, identification, adjudication and routing across our claims processing platform </li> <li class="li1">Become an expert on our operational processes and map them to technology and software solutions. </li> <li class="li1">Define where AI/ML capabilities (document extraction, classification, sub-classification, routing) should be applied within the claims pipeline, and where logic should remain deterministic and rules-based </li> <li class="li1">Define evaluation frameworks for AI product quality — accuracy, safety, hallucination risk, auditability, and user trust — and use them to make ship/no-ship decisions </li> <li class="li1">Design human-in-the-loop workflows, audit trails, and escalation paths appropriate for a regulated, financial-transaction system </li> <li class="li1">Define quality and turnaround-time (TAT) metrics for automated and semi-automated claims workflows, and use them to make ship/no-ship and rollout decisions </li> <li class="li1">Drive build vs. buy decisions for claims infrastructure (e.g., pricing data, vendor tooling, etc) and make the call with clear tradeoff reasoning </li> <li class="li1">Lead a cross-functional pod of engineers, designers, and data scientists to ship high-impact improvements </li> <li class="li1">Lead complex, cross-functional initiatives — system migrations, platform upgrades, new payer/vendor integrations — from discovery through launch </li> <li class="li1">Navigate compliance-driven requirements (e.g., No Surprises Act and other regulatory constraints) and translate them into clear, buildable product requirements </li> <li class="li1">Partner closely with engineering, claims operations SMEs, and compliance stakeholders to scope initiatives, define MVPs, and sequence a heavily interdependent roadmap </li> <li class="li1">Write clear, detailed PRDs and specs that hold up under scrutiny from engineering, compliance, and executive stakeholders </li> <li class="li1">Use data and experimentation to measure the performance of automated workflows and continuously improve accuracy and throughput </li> <li class="li1">Establish and evolve product practices suited to a platform that is part infrastructure, part intelligent system </li> <li class="li1">Stay current on the rapidly evolving AI landscape and translate emerging capabilities into concrete product opportunities </li> <li class="li1">Establish strong product practices tailored to the unique challenges of shipping AI products </li> <li class="li1">Set ambitious goals and hold yourself accountable </li> </ul> <p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces="true">What You'll Bring </span></strong></p> <ul class="ul1"> <li class="li1">Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Business Administration, or related field </li> <li class="li1">5+ years of product management experience working on processing systems with workflows, queues, routing, and automation.) </li> <li class="li1">Demonstrated experience taking AI products from concept through launch, including managing the unique challenges of non-deterministic systems — evaluation, safety, prompt design, user trust </li> <li class="li1">Deep understanding of AI agents and agentic architectures — you've shipped systems where AI takes sequences of actions, not just generates responses </li> <li class="li1">Experience defining AI product quality metrics beyond traditional A/B testing </li> <li class="li1">Strong instincts for designing auditable, traceable systems — this role sits inside financial-transaction and regulatory workflows where "mostly right" isn't sufficient without a clear audit trail </li> <li class="li1">Strong sense of design and UX, especially for data dense applications and interactions </li> <li class="li1">Demonstrated ability to write clear, rigorous specs for both deterministic systems (data pipelines, integrations, migrations) and non-deterministic ones (classification, extraction, routing logic), including how you evaluate and gain confidence in each </li> <li class="li1">Experience partnering with engineering on build vs. buy vs. integrate decisions, including vendor evaluation </li> <li class="li1">Proficiency in SQL for independent data analysis </li> <li class="li1">Deep understanding of Agile methodology </li> <li class="li1">Ability to manage a large number of interdependent workstreams and communicate sequencing tradeoffs to engineering, ops, and executive stakeholders </li> <li class="li1">Experience working cross-functionally across engineering, operations, compliance, and business stakeholders </li> <li class="li1">Claims processing, health insurance, or other regulated financial-transaction domain experience is a plus, but not required — we're equally interested in strong platform PMs from other complex domains </li> <li class="li1">Startup 0-to-1 builder experience is a strong plus — we want people who've shipped under constraints and learned from real users </li> </ul> <p><span data-preserver-spaces="true"><strong>What You'll Get </strong></span></p> <ul> <li>Competitive salary, bonus opportunity, and equity
