This role is eligible for our hybrid work model: 2 days in-office.
This job posting is for an existing, currently vacant position.
Product Manager, AI/ML Platform
Our Product Management teams work tirelessly to understand what our customers need and make it a reality. They’re the ones who make our deals come to life and our user experience simple and intuitive.
Why this job’s a big deal:
As the Product Manager for our Global Platform Engineering (GPE) team within the Data & AI/ML (DAI) portfolio, you will own the strategy and delivery of the foundational platforms that power AI, ML, and data-driven product experiences across Priceline. Rather than just using AI, you'll shape how AI is used across the company. Your customers are internal: PMs, engineers, and other stakeholders across our portfolio teams. Your success is measured by how broadly and deeply they adopt your platforms — and by the velocity and quality those platforms unlock for the rest of the business. You'll partner with a distributed team of platform engineers and architects to accomplish your objectives, and you will report to the Director of Product for the DAI Portfolio. This role has high visibility, C-suite buy-in, and direct leadership support to drive agentic thinking and meaningful product change.
In this role you will get to:
1. Product Discovery & Strategy
Deeply understand internal customer needs through user research, data analysis, and feedback loops, and partnerships with other PMs
Define the product vision, goals, and outcomes in alignment with the portfolio strategy, including but not limited to foundational capabilities such as:
Centralized LLM Management: Platformize a centralized LLM gateway, including tiered onboarding, key governance, and cost/usage tracking
AI Quality & Reliability: increase org-wide adoption of evals, guardrails, and observability tooling so AI-powered features ship with measurable quality
MCP Gateway & Governance: Drive vendor evaluation, architectural decisions, and governance for emerging agentic infrastructure
ML Pipelines: Own the migration and modernization of ML use cases onto a new platform and framework
AI-Powered Personalization: Partner with other portfolios to build the tools and platforms that enable AI-driven personalization (e.g., personalized sort and ranking) across the Priceline user experience
2. Outcome Ownership
Define, track, and deliver against product OKRs, KPIs, and success metrics
Treat platform adoption across portfolios as a first-class outcome, not a downstream byproduct of feature delivery
Continuously evaluate whether product initiatives and platform investments are driving intended value
3. Backlog Management & Prioritization
Own the GPE product backlog, ensuring work is clearly defined, prioritized, and sequenced
Write clear product requirements, user stories, and acceptance criteria that enable the GPE team to build impactful platform capabilities
Partner with engineering and product leads to assess feasibility, estimate effort, and refine scope
Make explicit prioritization trade-offs across AI-first initiatives, classical ML, technical debt, and data infrastructure investments
4. Planning & Execution
Lead quarterly and sprint planning for the GPE product team, and drive disciplined delivery against committed outcomes
Track progress, surface scope changes early, and keep the team focused on the highest-priority work rather than chasing every incoming request
Participate in demos, standups, retrospectives, and other sprint rituals to support delivery progress
Identify and manage cross-team dependencies, particularly with portfolio teams onboarding to your platforms
5. Vendor & Cost Management
Partner with architecture and portfolio leadership to lead vendor selection and ongoing management for the tooling that powers our AI/ML stack
Build and maintain cost and usage observability for centralized AI infrastructure, and define rules of engagement that allow portfolios to consume centrally while remaining accountable for their spend
6. Stakeholder Alignment & Adoption
Communicate product vision and progress while partnering with business sponsors and cross-functional teams to align on priorities and outcomes
Convey the value of foundational platform work to non-technical stakeholders by connecting infrastructure investment to tangible business outcomes
Drive measurable adoption of GPE tools and platforms across portfolios through clear onboarding paths, self-service documentation, and office hours
Who you are:
You have at least 3-4 years of Product Management experience, and you are the owner of your product’s success — responsible for defining vision, setting priorities, and ensuring delivery creates real impact
You have direct experience building products with AI-powered functionality, and you understand both the AI product lifecycle and the operational/technical realities of running LLMs in production
You bring a strong technical foundation through prior engineering, data, analytics, or platform PM experience, and you're not intimidated by deep technical concepts or conversations. Familiarity with modern AI/ML and data infrastructure (e.g., classical MLOps, GenAI infrastructure, GCP) is a plus
You have contributed to vendor evaluations for technical products and are comfortable navigating strategic build vs. buy decisions
You are a skilled communicator and translator — able to articulate the value of complex platform capabilities to non-technical stakeholders, and to communicate clearly in writing across distributed teams
You have a sharp instinct for internal product management, understanding that your customers are other teams and that their success is your success metric, combined with strong end-user empathy
You are highly organized, self-directed, and outcomes-focused — comfortable making prioritization trade-offs between foundational enabler work, technical debt, strategic bets, and customer-facing functionality
Illustrated history of living the values necessary to Priceline: Customer, Innovation, Team, Accountability and Trust
