FAMLI's mission is to improve Colorado residents' quality of life with a well-designed, reliable, easy-to-use paid family insurance program. FAMLI believes building a functional but passive portal for benefits is not enough. FAMLI's goal is to make its services more accessible and meet benefit claimants when and where they need them during a vulnerable time of their lives. FAMLI's ambitious plans include anticipating and responding to claimants' needs at the time of the incident that necessitates benefit. For example, an eligible CO resident who may have injured her/himself should get a claim started and processed before they leave the office of the physicians attending to their needs. In order to reach that level of service, FAMLI will need experienced and visionary leaders to guide the technology build accordingly.

The position is a hybrid model as it combines supervisory, management, and value stream responsibilities under one umbrella. Duties include: 1) supervisory responsibilities; 2) lead and organize regular data analysis and discovery sessions with various stakeholders. 3) participate in strategic and annual planning processes; 4) assume budgetary duties; 5) act as product manager for all Integrity & Analytics ( I &A ) systems ; and 6) serve as the ultimate decision maker for value streams (delivery of services or products to customers) relevant to I&A activities.

Will create and run brainstorming sessions with various stakeholders to gather and analyze ideas to improve customer success. Once backlogs of ideas are prioritized, the position will work with product managers of MyFAMLI+Employer, MyFAMLI+ and Platform for implementation of the stories.

The position will also own the generation of reports and address any business reporting needs by FAMLI leadership. Serve as a first level supervisor over direct reports and functional areas for the Innovation, Technology and Risk Management I&A unit. Participate in the selection/hiring process, assign/delegate work, monitor workflow, and direct all aspects of performance management. Promote a continuous learning work environment.
