Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Zillow's Talent Enablement team is building the infrastructure for smarter, more personalized employee experiences. They are seeking a Senior AI Program Manager who will bridge Talent's workflow challenges with practical AI solutions, building prototypes and collaborating with engineering to implement effective systems.
Responsibilities
- Partner with Talent teams to identify and prioritize AI opportunities that address real workflow pain points — distinguishing high-leverage use cases from novelty
- Build working AI prototypes using LLM APIs, prompt engineering, and workflow automation tools, creating functional demos stakeholders can react to before engineering resources are engaged
- Develop a working understanding of Talent's data landscape and processes to identify where AI can create durable value
- Translate validated prototypes into clear product requirements and partner with engineering to move from proof-of-concept to production
- Participate in technical design discussions, helping bridge Talent's needs with what engineering is building
- Contribute to evaluating AI tools, platforms, and vendors — building a perspective on what to adopt, integrate, or build
- Help develop the playbooks, prompting guides, and workflow templates that enable Talent teams to get real leverage from AI tools
- Support Talent team members in building AI fluency through shared examples and clear frameworks for when and how to use AI
- Ensure AI solutions are designed with data privacy, security, and fairness in mind — looping in Legal, Infosec, and other partners early in the process
- Contribute to tracking and reporting on AI tool adoption, engagement, and business outcomes across the Talent function
Skills
- 5–8 years of experience in product management, applied AI, HR technology, or a closely related field — ideally spanning both a Talent/HR function and a product or technical environment
- Hands-on experience building with AI: you've used LLM APIs, prompt engineering, and workflow automation tools to create working prototypes and functional solutions
- Experience taking a solution from concept through to deployment, including navigating organizational and data infrastructure realities
- Working knowledge of core Talent processes — Talent Acquisition, Talent Management, Compensation, Talent Operations — and how data and workflows underpin them
- Comfort with data: you can query a dataset, read analytics, and contribute to measurement frameworks without needing a data scientist for every question
- Strong communication skills — you can explain AI capabilities clearly to non-technical Talent leaders, and translate business problems into specific, buildable solutions for engineers
- Ability to manage ambiguity and execute in a fast-moving environment with evolving tools and priorities
- Familiarity with HR technology platforms such as Workday or Eightfold is a plus
- Familiarity with agentic frameworks (e.g., LangChain, CrewAI) and AI-native tools is a meaningful advantage
Benefits
- In addition to a competitive base salary this position is also eligible for equity awards based on factors such as experience, performance and location. Actual amounts will vary depending on experience, performance and location.
