Job Description
Digital Product Strategy and Innovation Manager

What you will do

Let's do this. Let's change the world. We are seeking a Digital Product Manager, to join the AI & Data Lab Product Management Team. This role is focused on rapidly validating high-potential AI and data-driven business opportunities before major investment, helping Amgen determine which AI initiatives should be scaled, refined, paused, or redirected.

The Digital Product Manager will operate at the intersection of business strategy, AI product discovery, data readiness, technical feasibility, experimentation, and enterprise transformation. You will partner closely with business leaders, scientists, data scientists, machine learning engineers, data engineers, software engineers, architects, and functional experts to identify meaningful problems, shape AI-enabled opportunity hypotheses, run fast validation cycles, and generate evidence-based recommendations for investment decisions.

This role requires a strong product mindset combined with sufficient technical depth to evaluate whether AI and data opportunities are practical, scalable, measurable, and aligned to Amgen's enterprise technology direction. The successful candidate will understand how AI products are built, validated, deployed, monitored, and scaled in complex enterprise environments.

Responsibilities:
  • Identify, frame, and validate AI-enabled business opportunities across Amgen. Translate broad transformation themes into clear problem statements, testable hypotheses, user needs, data requirements, success metrics, and validation plans.
  • Evaluate whether proposed AI opportunities have the right data foundations, system integrations, architecture patterns, model capabilities, security controls, and operational support needed to move from concept to scalable solution.
  • Collaborate with data scientists, ML engineers, data engineers, software engineers, solution architects, platform teams, and cybersecurity partners to shape solution concepts, understand technical tradeoffs, and identify dependencies early in the validation process.
  • Design and execute rapid discovery sprints, prototypes, pilots, user research, and experiments to assess desirability, feasibility, viability, value, and risk. Use evidence to determine whether opportunities should advance, pivot, pause, or scale.
  • Assess how LLMs, AI agents, machine learning models, NLP, automation, knowledge retrieval, analytics, and intelligent workflow tools can improve productivity, decision quality, scientific discovery, operational efficiency, and workforce effectiveness.
  • Develop product requirements that account for user experience, data availability, model performance, output quality, explainability, reliability, latency, integration needs, governance, and ongoing measurement.
  • Synthesize findings from validation work into clear product recommendations, opportunity briefs, technical feasibility assessments, business cases, and executive-ready narratives. Help leaders make informed decisions about where to invest, scale, or stop.
  • Maintain a portfolio of AI opportunity experiments across stages of discovery, prototype, pilot, and scale-readiness. Track progress, risks, assumptions, evidence, data dependencies, architecture implications, and decision points.
  • Ensure validation efforts consider responsible AI, data privacy, model risk, cybersecurity, compliance, regulatory considerations, human oversight, change management, and enterprise scalability from the earliest stages of discovery.
  • Facilitate workshops, discovery sessions, prioritization discussions, technical feasibility reviews, user experience design, process mapping, and decision forums. Communicate complex AI and data concepts in a clear, business-oriented way for senior leaders and non-technical stakeholders.
