  • Collaborate with engineering, architecture, UX/UI design, sales, and customer success teams throughout the product lifecycle.
  • Gather, synthesize, and leverage market intelligence, customer feedback, and usage data to inform product direction.
  • Engage directly with clients and internal stakeholders to understand needs, translate them into roadmap initiatives, and drive consensus.
  • Partner with product marketing and sales enablement to define positioning, messaging, and value propositions.
  • Support market-facing activities through product expertise and sales collateral development.

  • Demonstrated success defining product strategy and launching complex software products or platforms (ideally SaaS or cloud-native).
  • Strong understanding of Policy Administration Systems (PAS), billing, claims, cash/treasury management, or investment accounting within insurance.
  • Exceptional strategic thinking, decision-making, and analytical skills.
  • Ability to develop business cases, size market opportunities, and prioritize initiatives based on data-driven insights.
  • Excellent communication, presentation, and facilitation skills.
