Product Owner

Are you a dynamic and strategic thinker with a passion for driving product excellence in the insurance industry? Do you thrive in fast-paced environments and excel at managing multiple projects while fostering strong customer relationships? If so, we invite you to join our innovative team as a Product Owner. If you have a proven track record in product strategy and development, a knack for technical and non-technical communication, and a desire to make a significant impact, we want to hear from you.

The Product Owner has the primary responsibility to partner with the product leadership to direct, coordinate, and complete customer implementation projects while remaining aligned with the larger strategy and commitments of the product vision. This person serves as the conduit between all members of an implementation team, both internal and external.
