An employer in the insurance industry is seeking an AI Product Owner to join the Underwriting Solutions team. This individual will be responsible for owning and managing a portfolio of AI-enabled products that support underwriting and operational workflows across multiple lines of business.

They will also evaluate and support third-party product integrations where applicable. This individual will act as a champion for these products—maintaining their structure, enhancing existing features, and ensuring strong alignment between business value and technical delivery.
