[Hiring] Associate Director, Medicare Advantage Bid Strategy & Analytics @Devoted Health

Role Description

We are seeking a highly skilled and analytically driven Medicare Advantage Bid Strategy & Analytics Associate Director to join the team responsible for designing, pricing, and optimizing Devoted Health’s MA benefit portfolio. This individual will play a critical role in benefit design, financial modeling, competitive positioning, and the analytical work that drives sound bid decisions across a large, complex, multi-state plan portfolio. This role reports to the Senior Director, Medicare Product Strategy and Analytics.

This is true end-to-end product ownership — from 1,000-foot strategic framing all the way down to the individual benefit parameters on individual plans — and you need to be excellent at both. The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced, analytically demanding environment, is eager to make a meaningful impact, and is equally at home building a financial model, writing production SQL, and presenting a recommendation to the executive team.

This role will play an integral part in our annual plan bid and will collaborate regularly with executive leadership, actuarial, and finance on product design strategy, financial sustainability, and competitive positioning. You will take direct ownership of the benefit design and financial analytics workstreams that sit at the heart of what we bring to market each year.

Devoted is an AI-forward company in the most practical sense of the term: we are actively rebuilding how the bid cycle works using agentic workflows, AI-assisted code generation, and automated pipelines that turn what used to be weeks of manual work into something that runs overnight. This team is at the center of that build. Every person on the team — regardless of role — is expected to use AI tools fluently, push them into new territory, and help shape how we work. If you find the intersection of Medicare Advantage and AI-powered analytical infrastructure genuinely exciting, you will fit right in.
