Applied Systems is hiring a Lead Product Manager to own the vision and long-term strategy for Submissions Manager, its AI-powered commercial insurance submissions platform. The role leads adoption, user research, cross-functional execution, integrations, roadmap prioritization, and product metrics to improve workflows for agencies and carriers.
Responsibilities
- Define and lead the product vision and long-term strategy for Submissions Manager, grounded in a deep understanding of the problems it solves for our agency personas and where it sits between the marketing process and the bind workflow of commercial submissions
- Own adoption and activation strategy — understand what drives agencies to adopt Submissions Manager and users to activate within it, and set product direction that changes that behavior at scale
- Identify and prioritize research initiatives with users and design partners, using what we learn to validate hypotheses and guide product direction with cross-functional and senior product leadership
- Oversee cross-functional execution across design, engineering, product marketing, customer experience, and operations, resolving complex dependencies and keeping multiple initiatives aligned and moving
- Lead execution across a dynamic, multi-team environment, anticipating roadblocks before they surface and removing them with minimal oversight
- Proactively identify and own integration opportunities with adjacent Applied product areas — particularly upstream placement channels and downstream bind workflows — driving roadmap alignment through influence
- Own roadmap prioritization and product requirements within Submissions Manager, ensuring engineering and design always have a deep, shared understanding of what we’re building and why
- Define and track the metrics that matter, and communicate product strategy aligned with key business outcomes clearly to executive leadership and senior stakeholders
Skills
- Experience owning a B2B workflow product — multi-step, multi-role processes with handoffs between users, where success means real work getting done faster and with less effort
- 7-10 years of product management experience, with a track record of owning strategy and delivering outcomes at scale for a product or product suite
- Deep empathy for users paired with practiced user research skills — identifying core pain points, prioritizing research topics, running discovery, and synthesizing findings into long-term strategy
- Strong analytical skills, with the ability to lead product instrumentation and turn data into insight-led narratives for senior and executive stakeholders
- Experience mentoring or informally guiding other product managers
- Exceptional written communication — strategic narratives, executive summaries, and business cases that influence senior leadership decisions
- Familiarity with Agile development and tools like Jira and Confluence
- Experience building products embedded within larger platform ecosystems (e.g., Salesforce apps, Microsoft 365 add-ins, ERP extensions)
- Familiarity with AI-assisted workflows — having shipped features involving AI automation, and an understanding of the trade-offs in keeping humans in the loop
- Insurance industry experience is a genuine plus
