Introduction to the Team:

Expedia Group powers travel for everyone, everywhere. As AI becomes core to how travelers plan, book, and manage their trips, our ability to rapidly explore, prototype, and ship new AI capabilities becomes essential. You will help build the next generation of AI-powered experiences and the underlying patterns that ensure every experience meets a high standard of clarity, accuracy, and trust.

The Core AI Experiences team defines how Expedia Group builds AI. We create reusable components, orchestration patterns, and quality bars that help teams across the company turn frontier-model capabilities into delightful, reliable customer experiences. We partner with product, engineering, design, and data science teams supporting shopping, servicing, and other key journeys.

In this role, you will be a hands-on AI builder PM. You will prototype new AI experiences using third‑party and internal models, evaluate emerging capabilities, and lead the most promising ideas from experiment to production at scale. Your work will influence AI-powered experiences across Expedia Group and set the bar for what “great” looks like in applied AI.

In this role, you will:

• Identify and define high-impact traveler and partner problems that can be addressed by AI, translating them into actionable, testable product initiatives.

• Rapidly prototype end-to-end AI product experiences by leveraging LLMs and available tools, including prompt and API design, to validate product value and technical feasibility.

• Evaluate and operationalize new capabilities from internal and external AI platforms, turning them into concrete product concepts, demos, and proofs-of-concept.

• Collaborate with engineering, data science, and design teams to deliver successful prototypes into production, ensuring robust instrumentation, experimentation, and quality improvements.

• Establish and monitor success metrics and experimentation plans for AI-powered features, utilizing data and user feedback for iterative product development and prioritization.

• Share product learnings, frameworks, and best practices to promote rapid prototyping and an AI-first mindset across Expedia Group product teams.

Minimum Qualifications:

• 8+ years of experience with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related technical field; 6+ years with a Masters, or Equivalent related professional experience.

• 6+ years of product management experience building consumer or platform products, including work with AI, ML, or technically complex systems.

• Demonstrated experience taking products from concept to scaled adoption.

• Technical proficiency working with engineering and data science/ML teams, including understanding of system design, data flows, and technical tradeoffs.

• Familiarity with AI-driven systems, tools, or workflows and applying AI/ML concepts to real world products.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Track record of building or shipping AI/LLM-powered user experiences, such as conversational agents, recommendations, or decision-support tools.

• Hands-on experience with prompt engineering, API integration, retrieval/RAG, and basic evaluation of LLM behavior and ecosystems.

• Background in software engineering, data science, or ML, demonstrated through professional experience or technical projects.

• Understanding of trustworthy AI principles—such as safety, bias, privacy, and failure-mode analysis—and ability to apply them in product design and delivery.

• Experience developing frameworks, tools, or platforms that scale across multiple teams or products, with a focus on operational excellence and safe integration of AI/ML-enabled solutions.
