About the Role

As an Outbound Product Manager on the Guidewire Cloud Platform, you will own the outbound product story for two strategic platform areas: Advanced Product Designer (APD), our cloud-based, no-code product configuration platform, and Integration Gateway (IG), our cloud-managed integration runtime for InsuranceSuite. This role is pivotal in capturing market and customer insights, identifying unmet needs and opportunities, and translating them into clear product direction, customer value, and commercially meaningful outcomes across product modeling and integration. You will collaborate across teams to ensure these platforms deliver measurable value, efficiency, and adoption for our customers.

Responsibilities

  • Act as the Outbound Product Manager for Advanced Product Designer (APD), including SBT-to-APD migration tooling and services, and Integration Gateway (IG).
  • Engage directly with customers, partners, and field teams to understand product configuration, product modeling, and integration needs across the P&C lifecycle.
  • Synthesize market, customer, and field insights into actionable product opportunities and prioritized outbound requirements.
  • Translate insights into clear positioning, value narratives, and enablement that drive adoption of APD and IG.
  • Represent APD/SBT and IG topics in customer meetings, advisory groups, workshops, and Connections sessions.
  • Partner closely with Inbound Product Managers and other App Platform PMs, and collaborate with Architecture, Standards, Security, SRE, Professional Services, Enablement, Sales, and Marketing.
  • Drive the outbound direction for APD feature enhancements, including product modeling, multi-state support, rules, content layering, and managed content delivery.
  • Own the customer-facing narrative and adoption strategy for migrating SBT commercial lines onto APD.
  • Help shape the evolution from SBT 1.0 on PolicyCenter to an APD-centric, managed-content pipeline (SBT 2.0).
  • Position IG as the standard integration runtime for InsuranceSuite on Guidewire Cloud.
  • Represent the breadth of the IG platform to the field across API gateway and management, messaging and eventing patterns, connectivity patterns, observability, and developer experience.
  • Champion the end-to-end developer journey, from discovery and onboarding through design-time experience to run-time monitoring and troubleshooting.
  • Feed friction points back into the roadmap.
  • Partner with the Marketplace team to position and grow adoption of pre-built integration accelerators and Built-By-Guidewire IG apps.

Requirements

  • Strong ability to synthesize customer, market, and field input into actionable insights that influence product direction and go-to-market execution.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
  • Working knowledge of integration concepts such as REST APIs, messaging and eventing, webhooks, and event-driven, batch, or file-based patterns.
  • Working knowledge of product configuration or model-/metadata-driven systems.
  • Familiarity with cloud-native delivery concepts: multi-tenant SaaS, security and data privacy, versioning and lifecycle, and observability.
  • Familiarity with the P&C insurance domain and/or core systems, or a demonstrated ability to ramp quickly on a complex domain.
  • Ability to collaborate effectively with Inbound Product Managers and cross-functional teams while maintaining a clear outbound focus.
  • Demonstrated ability to embrace AI and data-driven insights to drive innovation, productivity, and continuous improvement.
  • Comfortable presenting and facilitating discussions with diverse audiences.
  • Excellent English speaking and written communication skills.
  • 8+ years of Product Management experience or equivalent in a customer-facing, technical role (e.g., solutions engineering, technical consulting, platform/integration engineering, or product modeling).
  • Bachelor’s degree in technology, computer science, engineering, or equivalent experience; Master’s degree is a plus.
  • Hands-on familiarity with Guidewire PolicyCenter / InsuranceSuite, including the product model and policy lifecycle.
  • Experience with product modeling, no-code/low-code configuration platforms, or insurance product authoring.
  • Familiarity with ISO / bureau commercial lines content (ERC) and US Commercial Lines lines of business.
  • Conceptual or practical familiarity with Apache Camel and with ESB / iPaaS products.
  • Understanding of API lifecycle management, including versioning strategies, backward compatibility, and managing breaking changes.
  • Experience defining platform SLAs/SLOs and partnering with engineering/SRE on availability, scalability, and performance.
  • Ability to travel 5–15% as needed.
