Job Overview
Make a Difference at Ivans
Digital connectivity is the lifeblood of innovation. At Ivans, a division of Applied, we are at the heart of what is driving innovation across the entire insurance ecosystem. This is just one of the things that makes Ivans such a cool place to work. Making a difference – for the industry and within our team – is what pushes us to do better each day.
Our culture is about more than developing the best technology. It’s about being innovative, investing in our team, creating a customer-centric environment, and setting the industry up for the future.
Position Overview
At Ivans, we sit at the intersection of the agencies and carriers that keep commercial insurance moving. Our goal is straightforward: make it easier for them to work together by meeting agents where they already are — inside Applied Epic. We leverage our AI-powered platform to automate the manual workflows that slow submissions down, improve the quality of what carriers receive, and ultimately help more business get written faster.
We’re searching for a Sr Product Manager to join our team in remote or hybrid location. To keep us headed in the right direction, we’re looking for people who understand winning is a team sport, who value and seek to learn from our team’s diverse experiences and backgrounds, who welcome a challenge and take risks in the pursuit of creating better outcomes for our customers, and who can, at any given time, step back to laugh and have some fun.
What You’ll Do
Shape the Agency Experience
Contribute to and help refine the product vision and roadmap for the agency-facing side of our platform — grounded in a deep understanding of the problem space for the different personas across our agency users
Champion adoption and activation: understand why users do or don't engage with the product and design features that change that behavior
Engage directly with our users and design partners, validating hypotheses to ensure that we’re working on the right problem to solve and building the right solutions to drive our adoption outcomes
Drive Cross-Functional Execution
Partner cross-functionally with design, engineering, product marketing, and operations to bring new products and features to life while ensuring alignment and removing blockers
Drive cross-team execution, keeping initiatives moving in a dynamic multi-team environment
Own and prioritize the backlog, writing clear product requirements and partnering closely with engineering to ensure the team always ships with a deep, shared understanding of what we're building and why
Connect Effort to Outcomes
Establish product metrics to validate performance and user impact, connecting agency engagement to the downstream value carriers depend on
Communicate progress, insights, and priorities clearly across teams and stakeholders
We’re Excited to Learn More About You
Your experience may include:
5–8 years of product management experience, with at least 2–3 years owning a customer-facing product
A track record of delivering outcomes by bringing end-user simplicity to complex workflows
Deep empathy for users and a passion for delivering outstanding user experiences and driving adoption
Strong user research instincts: you know how to run a discovery session, synthesize findings into themes, and translate them into roadmap decisions
Strong analytical skills — comfortable working with data and communicating through it
A balance of strategic thinking and hands-on execution — able to zoom in and out as needed
Clear, precise written communication: requirements, stakeholder updates, and executive summaries that don't bury the lead
Familiarity with Agile development and tools like Jira and Confluence
You may have other skills or credentials, including:
Experience building products embedded within larger platform ecosystems (e.g., Salesforce apps, Microsoft 365 add-ins, ERP extensions)
Familiarity with AI-assisted workflows — not as an engineer, but as a PM who has shipped features involving automation and understands where humans need to stay in the loop
Insurance industry experience is a genuine plus, but it's not a prerequisite. We’ll teach you the domain
We know that talent comes from all backgrounds and experience levels. We encourage military members and their spouses as well as candidates without a degree or a background in tech to apply!
