Overview
Expedia Group empowers global travel through innovative technology and inclusive culture. As AI becomes core to how travelers plan, book, and manage trips, our AI Builder Product Manager will prototype next‑generation AI experiences that meet high standards of clarity, accuracy, and trust. Why Join Us
We foster an open culture where everyone belongs, differences are celebrated, and success is shared. We provide a full benefits package, including travel perks, generous time‑off, parental leave, flexible work model, and career development resources. Role
In this hands‑on AI builder PM role, you will prototype new AI experiences, evaluate emerging capabilities, and lead prototypes 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. Responsibilities
Identify high‑impact traveler and partner problems that can be unlocked by AI and frame them as testable product bets. Rapidly prototype end‑to‑end AI experiences using available LLMs and tools (prompt design, tool/function calling, retrieval, simple UIs) to validate value and feasibility. Evaluate new capabilities from frontier labs and internal platforms, translating them into concrete product concepts, demos, and proof‑of‑concepts. Partner closely with engineering, data science, and design to move successful prototypes to production, including instrumentation, experimentation, guardrails, and ongoing quality improvements. Define reusable patterns and primitives (explanations, preview/approve/undo flows, context continuity) that can be adopted across teams and surfaces. Establish clear success metrics and experimentation plans for AI features, using data and user feedback to guide iteration and prioritization. Communicate clearly with senior leaders and cross‑functional partners, bringing structure and clarity to ambiguous technical and product spaces. Share learnings, playbooks, and best practices so that prototyping and AI‑first thinking become part of how product teams across Expedia Group operate. Minimum Qualifications
10+ years of product management experience building consumer or platform products, including meaningful work with AI, ML, or technically complex systems. Strong technical depth and experience partnering with engineering and DS/ML teams; comfortable discussing system design, data flows, tradeoffs, and constraints. Hands‑on ability to prototype: capable of using APIs/SDKs from major LLM providers and writing simple code (Python or TypeScript/JavaScript) to stitch together prompts, tools, and basic interfaces. Proven track record of taking 0→1 product ideas from concept through prototype to launched features, with clear impact on customer and business outcomes. Experience with metrics, experimentation, and evaluation (e.g., A/B testing, success metrics definition, instrumentation, or system reliability). Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to make complex technical topics accessible and drive alignment across senior cross‑functional stakeholders. Preferred Qualifications
Experience building or shipping AI/LLM‑powered user experiences (conversational agents, copilots, recommendations, search, automation, or decision‑support tools). Familiarity with LLM behavior and ecosystems: prompt engineering, tools/function calling, retrieval/RAG, embeddings, and basic evaluation techniques. Background in software engineering, data science, or ML (professional experience or equivalent technical projects), even if primarily worked as a PM. Understanding of trustworthy AI principles, including safety, bias, privacy, and failure‑mode analysis, and how to apply them in product design. Experience building frameworks, tools, or platforms that scale across multiple teams or products in a large organization. Salary
Seattle: $224,000.00 to $313,500.00 (potential up to $358,500.00). San Jose: $242,000.00 to $338,500.00 (potential up to $387,000.00). Benefits
Medical/dental/vision, paid time off, Employee Assistance Program, wellness & travel reimbursement, travel discounts, and International Airlines Travel Agent (IATAN) membership. EEO Statement
