Humana is a Fortune 60 market leader in integrated healthcare whose dream is to help people achieve lifelong well-being. As a company focused on the health and well-being of the people we serve, Humana starts from within, and is committed to providing progressive benefits that advance team members' careers and job satisfaction. Through offerings anchored in a whole-person view of human well-being, Humana embraces a focus on stimulating positive individual and population changes while nurturing a sense of security, enabling people to live life fully and be their most productive. We are also one of the nation's largest military contractors, by virtue of our TRICARE contract in which we provide healthcare services to more than six million members of U.S. armed forces.

You will also focus on driving organizational agility, in order to achieve greater operational performance and to strengthen our position to be awarded a renewal of the TRICARE contract. Finally, you will set the strategy, and create and refine the operational governance and framework (metrics, budget, processes, etc.) that will guide the efforts of the Software Engineering team and enable it to create value for the business and the consumers we serve.

You will report directly to the Vice President of HGB Information Systems, and will lead a multi-level organization of 60-70 associates, including three Director-level direct reports. This position can be located anywhere within the lower 48 states.
