Job Description
Lead Product Manager
– Applied Systems Canada
Digital connectivity is the lifeblood of innovation. At Ivans, a division of Applied, we are at the heart of driving innovation across the entire insurance ecosystem. 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
We’re searching for a Lead Product Manager to join our Product Management team in a remote or hybrid setting. This role sits at the intersection of business strategy, technology, and user experience, with a focus on building products that transform how insurance agencies and carriers work together. Applied is redefining collaboration across the insurance value chain, meeting users where they already work and enabling data to flow seamlessly across systems and partners. Our AI‑powered platform helps customers make smarter decisions, operate more efficiently, and collaborate more effectively across the global insurance ecosystem.
What You’ll Do
Define and own product strategy within the carrier–agency collaboration domain, delivering initiatives that balance near‑term business outcomes with long‑term customer and platform value.
Develop a deep understanding of carrier and agency workflows, underwriting and distribution dynamics, and evolving market needs—clearly articulating the value delivered to internal stakeholders and external partners.
Lead complex, cross‑team initiatives in partnership with Applied product teams and the Cytora organization, aligning priorities across platforms, data services, and shared roadmaps to solve multi‑party industry challenges.
Drive system and experience design for end‑to‑end workflows, collaborating closely with engineering and architecture partners to define scalable, resilient solutions that span data ingestion, automation, triage, and collaboration.
Independently own complex, ambiguous product initiatives end‑to‑end, from problem discovery and solution definition through execution, launch, and impact measurement, with minimal oversight.
Drive clarity in ambiguous situations by framing problems, evaluating options, and making informed product decisions rather than waiting for direction.
Spearhead planning and execution ceremonies across multiple teams, providing a unified view of customer value across features, workflows, and release milestones.
We’re Excited to Learn More About You
Your experience may include:
10+ years’ work experience with at least 8+ years in technical product management.
Comprehensive knowledge and experience of a wide range of product management practices, skills, and methodologies.
Deep understanding of the software industry and customer needs, including the ability to identify and act on new industry trends.
Experience in constructing cross‑functional plans to deliver both features and releases, and successfully influencing stakeholders.
Experience in leading any product management ceremony, including retrospectives, stand‑ups, refinement, and planning.
Ability to quickly identify and prioritize work to be done while removing barriers with no supervision.
You may have other skills or credentials, including:
Insurance domain knowledge.
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!
When You Join Team Ivans, You Can Expect:
A culture that values who you are and recognizes that you aren’t just an employee; you are a teammate, and you matter. We thrive on the benefits of our different experiences and celebrate the uniqueness our teammates bring to work with them every day.
We flex our time together, collaborating remotely and in‑person to empower our teams to work in the ways that work best for them. You’ll get to work with amazing people on cool innovation that brings the industry forward.
