Senior Product Manager

About The Role

Coalition is frequently recognized for having a market-leading quoting experience. Brokers can create quotes in just four minutes. This speed, paired with Coalition’s unique security insights captured in the Coalition Risk Assessment that accompanies each quote, are the backbone of our broker experience. However, we are always hungry to push the envelope of what is possible and redefine the standard of what a great broker experience entails.

As the Product Lead for Broker Innovation, you’ll identify key problems to tackle, get feedback from brokers, prioritize features within a roadmap, and work across the company to deliver innovative solutions. Your roadmap will drive forward elements of the core quoting experience, including AI-powered workflows, and new bets that simply weren’t possible a few years ago. A good product manager thinks creatively, empathizes with their customers, and deeply understands their domain. A great product manager continually creates business value, delights customers, and improves company infrastructure to unlock faster development. 

We expect a balance of constant incremental improvement with appetite for larger opportunities. When you find fundamental things that need attention, you’re willing to fix the root issue and invest in projects that benefit the company long term. You’ll manage your roadmap in a clear, consistent manner, and help everyone understand what success looks like. 

Coalition’s culture is one that strongly values humility, authenticity, and diversity. We want to work with people of different backgrounds and different paths in life, and we trust our team members to take responsibility, share ownership, and work for one another. Coalition operates in a regulated space (insurance), so in addition to efficiency and elegance, everything we do must be both secure and compliant, across multiple regulatory frameworks.
