What We’re Looking For

• This is someone's first product role. We don't require a degree, a specific major, or prior PM experience — but we do want evidence you've worked somewhere with real stakes and standards, whether that's a substantive internship, a first job where you owned something, or time in support, QA, ops, coordination, or analytics. We'd rather teach the craft to someone with the right instincts than hire for a résumé.
• Curious, and knows when to stop. You pull the thread when something doesn't add up, and you ask what something actually means rather than nodding along. Much of this work happens around people who've been here years and talk in shorthand — asking costs you nothing here, guessing wrong three weeks later costs everyone. The other half matters just as much: recognizing when you've hit the edge of what you can resolve alone, and escalating cleanly instead of disappearing into an investigation for two days. When you fix something, you also ask why it broke, so it doesn’t come back next week.
• Thinks in workflows, not screens. The expensive gaps are the ones nobody considered until QA: the state that only shows up on a renewal, the case where something gets cancelled halfway through, the step that quietly assumes someone else already did their part. You read a spec and trace the process end to end, then ask what happens when it doesn't go that way. You're also often the last person to see something before a user does, so you notice when a flow is confusing or an error message reads like it was written for an engineer rather than a customer - and you say so, even when the ticket technically passes.
• Works out the how. You'll be told what matters this week. You won't be told what the item actually requires, who needs looping in, or what has to be true before it's done. You work that out, come back with questions rather than a blank stare, and notice the thing that's been sitting untouched for a week without anyone pointing at it. When the tooling doesn't do what you need, you find another way to get the answer.
• Unintimidated by technical things. You don't need to code or have a technical degree. You do need to be the kind of person who opens the dashboard, reads the spec, clicks into the log, and works out what it's telling you - and then can talk to an engineer about what broke without getting lost.
• Writes things down by default. Much of this job is written: tickets, changelogs, bug reports, escalations, call notes. Precise and brief beats thorough and vague. The instinct we're hiring for treats a decision as unfinished until it's documented somewhere the team can find it.
• Someone people can count on. Most of this role is in service of other people — ops needs an answer, an engineer needs context, your PM needs to know where something stands. On a fully remote team that means giving a straight answer, saying so when you don't know, and coming back when you said you would. The defining trait of a good PM early in their career is simply that things don't get dropped.

Bonus Points For

• Exposure to insurance (carrier, broker, MGA, claims, policy admin) or another regulated domain like fintech. Knowing what a policy, premium, and cancellation are will save you a few weeks.
• Hands-on time with an observability tool — Datadog
• Experience in a QA or test role, formal or informal
• Familiarity with issue trackers as an owner rather than a user — Linear, Jira, or similar
• Previous exposure to working with a recurring data feed from an external system.

You should also be able to travel for in-person collaboration roughly once per quarter.

• Tier 3 (Rest of the US) = $79,475 - $106,000
