Role Description

You'll design new insurance products and features, then drive their rollout across new and existing states. This role sits at the intersection of pricing strategy and product development — turning market insight and risk analysis into new coverage options, rating features, and pricing enhancements that customers actually feel.

• Design and develop new insurance products, rules, coverages, and enhancements that improve competitiveness and customer value.
• Lead state expansion efforts by building and launching pricing models for new states, and optimizing existing state models for performance.
• Own the research and proposal of new products, rules, coverages, and enhancements.
• Own the end-to-end rollout process, from initial pricing analysis through launch and post-launch monitoring.
• Leverage AI and machine learning tools to enhance pricing accuracy, uncover emerging risk patterns, and accelerate analytical workflows.
• Partner cross-functionally with actuarial, product, and compliance teams to ensure new features are technically sound and regulator-ready.
• Build and maintain dashboards and KPIs that track the performance of newly launched products and pricing features.
• Translate market and competitive research into concrete product recommendations and pricing adjustments.
• Identify opportunities for pricing innovation ahead of state expansion, ensuring readiness for regulatory review and market entry.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of insurance product development experience.
• Demonstrated experience building or launching new insurance products, features, or rating enhancements.
• Experience supporting state expansion efforts, including new-state pricing model development and regulatory readiness.
• Hands-on experience applying AI and machine learning tools to pricing, underwriting, or risk workflows, with measurable results.
• Strong understanding of regulatory modeling and compliance requirements across multiple states.
• Ability to translate market research and competitive analysis into concrete pricing and product recommendations.
• Comfortable partnering cross-functionally with actuarial, product, and compliance teams without formal authority over those teams.
• Homeowners insurance experience preferred but not necessary.

Requirements

• Success in this role is less about checking boxes and more about the impact you create.
• New pricing products or features have been successfully launched, showing meaningful impact to growth goals.
• State expansion pricing models are built, validated, and ready for regulatory submission.
• AI/ML tools are actively integrated into the pricing development workflow, improving speed or accuracy of analysis.
