Introduction to the Team We create and deliver tailored marketing strategies for Expedia Group's brands, focusing on establishing strong connections and cohesive experiences for travelers and partners. We leverage our functional expertise and creative excellence to build trust and loyalty for our brands through innovative marketing approaches and technology. Expedia Group is seeking a highly technical, builder-mindset Principal Product Manager to lead the strategy and execution of our Business to Agent team. AI agents are emerging as a new customer interface, increasingly owning the travel funnel from intent to transaction. We ensure EG's supply, pricing, and brand are surfaced, selected, and transacted by agents, the next platform shift after web and mobile. This is an individual contributor role designed for a builder. As the Single Threaded Leader for Business to Agent, the PM will own the channel-level theses, roadmap, experimentation, and outcomes across the full set of Agentic Search channels and emerging agent surfaces. The role carries direct ownership of strategy and execution, with a squad of senior engineers, and is empowered to act with minimal coordination tax. In this role, you will: Strategy & Thesis Building Own the end-to-end strategy and outcomes for Business to Agent across agent channels, sequencing investment by economic contribution and maintaining a forward view on emerging agent surfaces. Build and continuously refine theses on how agents search, evaluate, and transact, recognizing that agent archetypes differ meaningfully from each other and require bespoke approaches. Translate theses into prioritized roadmaps and clear stay/invest/pass calls as the agent ecosystem evolves. Agent Legibility & Access Ensure EG's inventory, pricing, policies, and loyalty signals are machine-readable and correctly interpreted across agent surfaces. Drive expansion of EG's presence into agent-specific indices, registries, and retrieval surfaces, and ensure EG is callable and usable wherever agents operate. Identify and pull the small set of high-leverage levers per channel that drive agent visibility and access. Agent Reasoning & Preference Develop a research and experimentation agenda to understand how agents reason, rank, and recommend, drawing on observability tooling (e.g., chain-of-thought analysis), structured prompting of closed models, and emerging academic literature. Translate learnings about agent preferences into agent-facing products, content, interfaces, and offerings, recognizing that agents may weight value, trust, and convenience differently than humans. Operate a portfolio of agent-archetype strategies with a shared feedback loop across experimentation and research. Experimentation & Productionalization Define and operate a high-velocity experimentation system per channel, with clear hypotheses, decision criteria, and decision-grade readouts. Translate experimental learnings into durable changes; product enhancements, expanded marketing surfaces, content systems, and offering adjustments - and rank what to productionalize against desirability, feasibility, and viability. Shape the path toward end-to-end agent infrastructure as the category matures, including the harder unresolved problems of identity, authorization, and human-agent liability. Team Leadership & Cross-Functional Influence Lead a squad of senior engineers via dotted-line authority, operating as an AI-native, high-leverage, low-coordination-tax team that uses agents and automation to amplify output. Partner cross-functionally with product, technology, marketing, brand, legal, and enterprise alliance teams to ship the changes that compound channel performance. Embody failure-as-a-design-principle: move fast, including pivots when unsuccessful, and double down on signals of traction in a pre-playbook market. Executive Communications & Presentations Translate complex agent ecosystem dynamics, channel theses, and experimental learnings into clear, concise narratives for C-suite, board, and senior cross-functional audiences. Represent Agentic Search in senior forums across the orga
