Position Summary
CVS Health’s Analytics & Behavior Change (A&BC) is an organization working to solve some of the most challenging problems at the intersection of technology and healthcare. A&BC leverages advanced analytics, machine learning, modeling, and hypothesis-driven approaches to transform data into actionable, customer-centric insights driving growth, health outcome improvements, and access to health care across all our businesses in CVS Health. Our teams build next generation data and machine learning platforms and software products that help power CVS Health to make healthier happen for 100+ million customers.
The A&BC organization is looking to grow its Product team supporting clinical decision support intelligence. Join us as we embark on an exciting journey to drive a transformational shift in how CVS Health leverages technology and analytics to become the leader in consumer healthcare in the U.S.
As a Director within A&BC, you will be responsible for leading the creation, launch, and maintenance of an AI-powered, clinical data insights platform that powers both automation and workflow tools for Aetna Clinicians. This role requires a strong understanding of product management, clinical data, AI-powered insights acceleration, and cross-team collaboration.
The ideal candidate has familiarity with the following areas:
- Insight generation from unstructured clinical documentation using genAI, natural language processing and traditional ML, as well as experience building platform products.
- Reusable services designed to serve multiple downstream applications rather than a single use case.
- Working effectively with cross-functional teams, most importantly data scientists and machine learning engineers, to bring clinical data and AI products from inception to production.
This is a hands-on, individual-contributor role today. You'll help define how the platform team should be structured as scope and complexity grow, with the opportunity to build and lead that team over time.
Responsibilities:
- Develop a deep understanding of clinical and application-team needs through direct discovery, product data, and quantitative/qualitative analysis, to determine what should be built once and reused vs. left application-specific.
- Structure ambiguous problems, form and test hypotheses, and prioritize the platform investments with the highest clinical and business value.
- Define product strategy and own the platform roadmap, translating recurring needs from application/activation teams into reusable, scalable platform capabilities.
- Own multi-year roadmap and investment priorities, making evidence-based trade-offs across clinical value, team productivity, technical feasibility, reliability, and business outcomes.
- Lead the platform from concept through delivery in close partnership with Data Science and Engineering, making clear technical and product trade-offs (build vs. integrate vs. vendor).
- Partner with application teams to launch and scale platform capabilities, accelerate adoption, and identify barriers to reuse.
-
Define platform health and success metrics:
- Coverage, accuracy, reliability, adoption.
- Using data and experimentation to inform roadmap and investment decisions.
- Influence senior stakeholders and align Data Science, Engineering, and cross-functional partners around platform strategy, priorities, and trade-offs.
Required Qualifications
- 8+ years of product management experience building enterprise software, platforms, or AI/ML and Generative AI products, including experience taking complex technical products from concept through launch, adoption, and iteration.
- 8+ years demonstrating exceptional analytical and product judgment, with ability to structure ambiguous problems and translate quantitative and qualitative evidence into strategy and measurable outcomes.
- 6+ years’ experience working with AI/ML and Generative AI products and application architectures, with technical fluency to partner deeply with Data Science and Engineering.
- 5+ years of experience influencing senior stakeholders and driving decisions across complex, cross-functional, matrixed organizations.
- 5+ years of experience demonstrating executive communication and storytelling skills, with the ability to translate fluidly between technical, clinical, and business audiences.
Preferred Qualifications
- Domain expertise in healthcare or health insurance, including familiarity working with unstructured clinical documentation.
- Experience building platform products and reusable services designed to serve multiple downstream applications rather than a single use case.
- Experience with healthcare data interoperability standards and multi-channel data intake (e.g., fax/EDI, EMR feeds).
- Experience evaluating emerging AI/ML technologies and external vendor solutions.
- Experience defining and measuring platform adoption and business outcomes.
Education
- Bachelor's degree required, preferably in a quantitative, analytical, or engineering field.

Product Director Jobs in North Carolina: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a product director in North Carolina?
Product director is not a state-licensed role in North Carolina, so no board exam or state credential is required. Most hiring managers in the state expect a bachelor's degree in a technical or business discipline, several years of progressively senior product management experience, and a portfolio that demonstrates ownership of a shipped product. In North Carolina's tech-heavy markets, certifications such as the Pragmatic Institute credential or Certified Scrum Product Owner designation strengthen applications at larger employers in the Research Triangle and Charlotte corridors.
Which companies hire product directors in North Carolina?
Employers hiring product directors in North Carolina right now include CVS Health, Epic Games, and Carrier, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. North Carolina's concentration of fintech, enterprise software, and healthtech firms means many of these openings are with companies that operate large, multi-product portfolios requiring senior product leadership rather than single-feature management.
Which North Carolina cities have the most product director jobs?
The cities with the most product director openings in North Carolina are Charlotte, Durham, and Raleigh. The Research Triangle, encompassing Raleigh, Durham, and Cary, dominates because of its dense cluster of enterprise software companies, university-linked healthtech ventures, and major employers like Red Hat and Fidelity, while Charlotte's fintech and banking sector drives strong demand there independently.
Are there remote product director jobs in North Carolina?
Yes, and more than most fields. Product director work is inherently strategic and communication-driven, which makes it well suited to remote and hybrid arrangements. About 70% of product director openings tied to North Carolina are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, reflecting how broadly distributed product leadership teams have become since the shift to distributed work. Platform strategy, data product, and SaaS-focused roles tend to offer the most remote flexibility within the discipline.
How can I get hired as a product director in North Carolina with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is moving into a product manager role first, then building toward director-level responsibility over time. In North Carolina, companies like Bandwidth, Pendo, and Spreedly, all headquartered in the Research Triangle, regularly hire associate or junior product managers and develop them internally. Transitioning from a business analyst, project manager, or UX researcher role is a common lateral move that North Carolina employers recognize. Earning a product management certification and contributing to an open-source or side product strengthens candidacy considerably.
Where can I find and apply to product director jobs in North Carolina?
You can find and apply to product director jobs in North Carolina on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings tied to the state. Roles are updated as employers post them, so you can see what is available right now across Charlotte, the Research Triangle, and other North Carolina markets.
