Senior Product Manager, AI Trust

We are hiring a full-time Senior Product Manager, AI Trust to lead the newly formed AI Trust pod, reporting to the Group Product Manager of our Data Products organization. This pod plays a critical role in ensuring that our AI systems—especially those augmenting or delivering care—are not only technically robust, but clinically sound, trustworthy, and outcome-driven.

This is a high-leverage, cross-functional role that spans model evaluation and enhancement, AI safety reviews, LLM red-teaming, and performance measurement of AI-powered care experiences. You’ll help define what “safe and effective” AI looks like in the context of behavioral health and collaborate with engineering, data science, clinical, legal, and infrastructure stakeholders to make it real.

This role is foundational to how Spring Health is leveraging AI to transform mental health care, ensuring that every AI-powered interaction aligns with our clinical values and delivers measurable outcomes.

What You’ll Be Doing:

Define and Drive the AI Trust Strategy

• Own the roadmap for the AI Trust pod, evolving it from traditional safety to measuring and improving AI performance in care delivery
• Define a strategy to leverage data to improve performance of AI systems
• Define product strategies for red-teaming, clinical safety audits, and evaluation infrastructure across multiple model types (LLMs, recommendation engines, outcome predictors)
• Set the standards for what “safe and effective AI” means across mental health care use cases

Establish Safety and Evaluation Processes

• Lead implementation of safety review protocols, red teaming (e.g., LLM jailbreaking), evaluation pipelines, and incident response processes
• Define operational approval gates for new AI features before they’re deployed in production
• Partner with ML engineers and data scientists to scope and prioritize technical work that enables trustworthy AI at scale

Collaborate Cross-Functionally

• Work closely with partners in Clinical, Legal, Security, and AI/ML to align goals, processes, and trade-offs
• Collaborate with multiple product teams to integrate AI safety and performance insights centered around overall care quality
• Support customer-facing teams and governance leaders in responding to transparency, regulation, and risk-related queries

What Success Looks Like:

• Strong evaluation protocols in place for LLMs and AI-driven features
• Measurable improvement in the clinical safety and reliability of AI interactions
• Operational alignment across stakeholders (legal, ML, clinical) on what constitutes trustworthy AI
• Clear audit trail and incident response plan for AI-related regressions or safety issues

What We Expect From You:

Must-Have Experience & Skills:

• 4+ years of product management experience, ideally with a focus on ML/AI systems or safety-critical technology
• Strong ML fluency—understands model lifecycles, performance metrics (e.g., ROC, AUC, F1), failure modes (e.g., hallucinations, prompt leakage), and validation methods
• Experience defining goals and specs for model evaluation, red teaming, or risk mitigation
• Comfortable navigating high-ambiguity, high-risk domains, especially in regulated or safety-sensitive industries
• Strong cross-functional communication and alignment skills across technical, clinical, and regulatory teams
• Ability to drive product strategy in 0→1 and R&D-heavy environments

Bonus skills:

• Prior experience in a Data Science or Machine Learning Engineering role
• Background in healthcare, behavioral health, or clinical settings (e.g., PHQ-9, DSM-5 familiarity)
• Experience in AI ethics, red teaming, or bias auditing
• Exposure to prompt engineering or hands-on ML experimentation
• Familiarity with human-in-the-loop evaluation pipelines or post-deployment model monitoring
• Understanding of emerging AI regulatory frameworks (e.g., EU AI Act, U.S. HHS guidance)

Desired Traits:

• Systems thinker with a strong product sense—can link technical rigor to clinical outcomes
• Comfortable doing low-glamour work with high-impact potential
• Strategic but willing to dive deep on design of evaluations or specs
• Empathetic and outcome-focused—puts the member’s well-being at the center
