Hailey Hildahl, MBA

Principal Product Manager - Mayo Clinic Platform

Hailey Hildahl is a Principal Product Manager at Mayo Clinic Platform, where she leads the development and dissemination of AI-enablement tooling. Her portfolio spans model development, validation, federated learning and analytics, silent model deployment, and portfolio strategy. She helped establish an AI qualification framework for Solutions Studio, has collaborated with the FDA, NIH, MITRE, Duke, Stanford, and Coalition for Health AI (CHAI) to propose and shape national standards for AI governance. She also co-authored Mayo Clinic Platform’s Digital Hippocratic Oath, guiding the ethical development and deployment of AI in healthcare.


Hailey began her career at Medtronic, where she led the launches of novel software, hardware, and artificial intelligence products and their supporting services that spanned the cardiovascular portfolio, including a next generation insertable cardiac monitor, Bluetooth enabled bedside and phone application monitors, patient education applications, and the company’s first set of artificial intelligence algorithms. These award-winning experiences sparked her passion for healthcare AI and its potential to reduce clinician burden and improve care delivery for patients.


A two-time University of Minnesota alum, she first earned a self-designed bachelor’s of science degree with a focus on biological sciences and healthcare administration and most recently, she completed her MBA at the Carlson School of Management with a specialization in the Medical Industry Leadership Institute. Her graduate work deepened her prior experience with international markets and venture- backed innovation evaluation, further supporting the ability to scale trustworthy AI across the healthcare ecosystem.
