About the Role

We are looking for a seasoned Senior Product Manager to own Hippo’s Insurance Products charter – the rating and pricing engine, coverage and eligibility logic, business rules, and the core infrastructure that powers how we price and structure risk. This is a strategic, high-impact role that combines platform ownership with direct P&L impact: you’ll set the multi-year direction for our insurance product infrastructure while driving the day-to-day execution that keeps one of Hippo’s most important business lines competitive, compliant, and profitable. You’re comfortable leading large-scale improvements to core infrastructural platforms, and equally comfortable in a strategy conversation and a sprint planning session.

Responsibilities

Define and own the multi-year product strategy and vision for Hippo’s Insurance Products platform – spanning the rating and pricing engine, coverages, deductibles, discounts, eligibilities, and more.
Identify opportunities to modernize and scale the platform in ways that directly improve speed-to-market, profitability, and risk mitigation.
Influence and shape company-level prioritization decisions for the Insurance Products platform, building alignment across product, engineering, and business leadership without direct authority.
Stay ahead of market, regulatory, and competitive trends – translating them into a roadmap that keeps Hippo’s insurance products competitive.
Own the end-to-end product lifecycle for the Insurance Products platform: discovery, prioritization, requirements, delivery, and post-launch monitoring.
Lead the execution of large, cross-functional initiatives, including compliance and regulatory changes, partnering with Insurance, Legal/Compliance, Operations, and Engineering to deliver on time with clear risk mitigation and auditability.
Translate insights into crisp requirements (PRDs, user stories, acceptance criteria) and partner closely with Engineering, Design, and Data to ship high-quality, platform-level solutions.
Drive measurable outcomes – define success metrics and KPIs, instrument product changes, analyze impact, and iterate based on results.
Serve as the primary bridge between Insurance, Legal/Compliance, and Operations business teams and the Engineering organization – deeply understanding business needs and enabling tech to meet them.
Build strong partnerships with business stakeholders, earning trust through consistent delivery, clear communication, and a genuine understanding of insurance and risk.
Establish a strong operating cadence: prioritization frameworks, stakeholder alignment, launch readiness, training/comms, and performance tracking.
Communicate strategy, tradeoffs, and outcomes to leadership with clear narratives grounded in data and customer impact.
Drive the evolution of Hippo’s rating, pricing, and business rules infrastructure – enabling faster, safer, and more auditable changes to insurance product logic.
Identify and lead large-scale improvements to core infrastructural platforms, improving speed-to-market for product changes through tooling, process improvements, and automation.
Partner with Engineering to shorten the feedback loop between product decisions and production deployment across the platform.

Requirements

7+ years of experience in product management, including full ownership of the product backlog and leading the end-to-end software development lifecycle in collaboration with a team of at least four engineers, delivering impactful and user-focused solutions.
Proven track record of owning or building platform-level products – rules engines, pricing/rating engines, configuration systems, or similar core infrastructure – and leading large-scale improvements to them.
Demonstrated success leading cross-functional teams and delivering high-impact products, with the ability to inspire and motivate a team to achieve ambitious goals.
Strong stakeholder management skills – proven ability to earn trust across business, technical, and executive audiences, and to navigate competing priorities with clarity and conviction.
Data-driven decision making with strong analytical skills.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
