A Strategic Technology Partner Driving High Impact Delivery Across Humana
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, and leading teams toward high-quality outcomes—while still bringing strong technical depth—this role is built for you.
What You'll Do
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 & Trusted Advisor
- Assess systems, architectures, and processes; identify modernization and optimization opportunities; and provide actionable recommendations that influence technical and business strategy.
Ensure Quality, Performance & Operational Readiness
- Oversee validation, testing, integration, and deployment readiness, ensuring solutions meet functional, non-functional, 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.
Promote Delivery Excellence & Continuous Improvement
