About the role

Become a part of our caring community
 

At Humana, a Fortune 100 healthcare technology innovator, we are reshaping how millions of people experience care. Our Senior Technology Leaders operate at the intersection of technology strategy, delivery excellence, and cross-functional leadership. This hybrid role blends technical consulting, program leadership, and hands-on solution oversight to ensure successful delivery of complex, business-critical technology initiatives.

If you excel at navigating ambiguity, building alignment, driving accountability, and influencing technical outcomes through credibility and leadership while bringing strong technical depth, this role is built for you.

Lead Cross-Functional Technology Delivery 

Drive end-to-end planning and execution of complex technology initiatives, aligning engineering, product, architecture, and business teams to deliver scalable, secure, and high-quality solutions. 

Serve as a Technical Consultant, Technical Challenger & Trusted Advisor 

Assess systems, architectures, designs, and delivery approaches; identify modernization and optimization opportunities; and provide actionable recommendations that influence technical and business strategy. Bring sufficient engineering and architectural depth to constructively challenge design decisions, implementation approaches, technical tradeoffs, and delivery risks while fostering productive collaboration with development teams. 

Drive Cross-Team Execution & Delivery Coordination 

Operate as a force multiplier across engineering, quality, product, architecture, and operations teams. Step into critical delivery functions as needed to coordinate testing efforts, manage cross-team dependencies, remove execution roadblocks, and ensure alignment across complex initiatives. Act as a key owner for driving outcomes, even when authority is distributed across multiple teams. 

Ensure Quality, Performance & Operational Readiness 

Oversee validation, testing, integration, and deployment readiness, ensuring solutions meet functional, non-functional, security, and compliance requirements before production launch. 

Guide Issue Resolution & Technical Problem Solving 

Partner with engineering teams to troubleshoot complex issues, drive root-cause analysis, and coordinate resolution efforts that protect system stability and business continuity. 

Align Delivery Teams & Stakeholders 

Facilitate communication across engineering, operations, product, and business leadership, ensuring risks, dependencies, and decisions are surfaced clearly and managed effectively. 

Champion AI-Enabled Delivery & Modernization 

Lead the adoption of enterprise-grade AI capabilities across the software development lifecycle. Promote the use of tools such as GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, and other emerging enterprise AI solutions to accelerate development, improve documentation quality, enhance knowledge sharing, streamline testing, and support modernization initiatives. Identify opportunities where AI can increase engineering productivity and delivery effectiveness while maintaining governance, quality, and security standards. 

Promote Delivery Excellence & Continuous Improvement 

Establish and refine delivery processes, documentation standards, and best practices that elevate execution quality across teams and programs.
