The Zebra, a leading independent insurance comparison platform, is seeking a Senior Product Manager to lead their Applied AI pod. In this individual contributor role reporting to the Director of Product, Applied AI, you will own a dedicated roadmap for zero-to-one AI-driven features while collaborating with consumer-facing product teams across other verticals to embed applied AI capabilities into core user flows.
You will identify core user problems, design smart AI-driven solutions, and partner daily with engineering and design to build, test, and ship features that directly impact user experience and business metrics. Operating on a fast-moving pod, you will leverage rapid prototyping and modern AI-assisted development workflows to turn concepts into production-ready features at high velocity.
Key responsibilities include:
- Defining, prioritizing, and delivering product strategies and user-facing features that natively leverage AI to simplify insurance shopping
- Leading end-to-end execution through fast feedback loops, running live user tests, interactive prototypes, and hypothesis-driven A/B experiments
- Partnering closely with engineering teams using AI-assisted coding and development tools to accelerate release cycles
- Driving standalone AI initiatives while deploying personalized AI engines, dynamic discovery tools, or conversational interfaces across consumer touchpoints
- Defining primary and secondary success metrics for every release and evaluating outcomes through quantitative data analytics and qualitative discovery
- Communicating plans, progress, technical trade-offs, and post-launch learnings to cross-functional partners and executive stakeholders

The company emphasizes inclusive culture through Employee Resource Groups, competitive compensation with stock options, comprehensive health coverage, wellness perks, unlimited PTO, paid parental leave, and learning and development opportunities.
REQUIREMENTS:
- 5+ years of experience in consumer-facing product management with a track record of driving measurable business outcomes
- Direct hands-on experience building, testing, and shipping consumer features powered by modern AI, machine learning models, or personalized automation
- Proven experience operating in fast-paced, iterative environments with high bias for action and rapid experimentation
- Comfort incorporating modern AI tools directly into daily PM workflow (discovery, spec writing, wireframing, data analysis)
- Strong quantitative, analytical, and problem-solving skills with deep experience setting up feature tracking and reading experiment results
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills with ability to simplify complex technical trade-offs for cross-functional partners
EXPERIENCE THAT WILL IMPRESS:
- Experience working on zero-to-one product initiatives, innovation labs, or incubator pods
- Practical familiarity with modern developer AI tools, LLM architectures, prompt engineering/orchestration, or modern AI agents
- Background in high-growth, transactional consumer platforms (fintech, insuretech, or complex marketplace environments)
