Product Analyst, AI & UX Optimization

AfficiencyNew York, NY
$70,000 - $105,000Hybrid

About The Position

Afficiency is seeking a Product Analyst, AI & UX Optimization to join their rapidly growing Insurtech company. This role involves analyzing product and UX/UI journeys to identify friction points, using AI tools to prototype and implement fixes, and collaborating with stakeholders to ship improvements. The ideal candidate will have a strong analytical mind, common sense, a self-starter attitude, and a genuine instinct for ownership and problem-solving. Experience with AI tools is essential, and prior experience in insurance, fintech, or with product analytics tools is a plus.

Requirements

  • About 2+ years of business, analyst, operations, or product-adjacent work experience — a non-technical background is completely fine.
  • A genuinely analytical mind: you notice when something doesn't add up, and you dig until you understand why.
  • Strong common sense and business judgment about how a product or process should work, and an eye for where it doesn't.
  • A self-starter attitude — you don't wait to be told what to look at or handed a fully scoped project.
  • Real ownership instinct: when you find a problem, your instinct is "let me go fix this," not "let me go tell someone."
  • Comfort learning and using AI tools (like Claude) as a working tool to move faster on analysis and execution — no coding background required, just curiosity and a willingness to figure it out.
  • Clear written and verbal communication — you can explain what's broken and why it matters to both technical and non-technical people.

Nice To Haves

  • Experience with insurance, fintech, or another regulated/complex-product industry.
  • Prior exposure to product analytics tools (e.g. session replay tools, funnel/behavioral analytics) or SQL.
  • Hands-on experience already using AI tools to build something — a workflow, an automation, a prototype — even informally.

Responsibilities

  • Own the ongoing review of Afficiency's product and UX/UI journeys — application flows, agent tools, and consumer-facing experiences — to identify friction, confusion, and drop-off points.
  • Dig into real usage data: session recordings, support tickets, underwriting outcomes, and conversion funnels, to find where the product isn't working the way it should.
  • Turn findings into concrete, prioritized recommendations grounded in business impact, not just "this feels off."
  • Use AI tools such as Claude to prototype, build, or directly implement fixes — copy changes, flow adjustments, small tooling, automation, or reports — rather than only handing off findings.
  • Partner with product, engineering, and underwriting stakeholders to scope and ship changes, escalating and collaborating when something needs deeper technical work.
  • Build a repeatable habit of measuring whether a change actually worked, and iterating when it didn't.
  • Bring plain business judgment to the table: does this make sense, would a real customer understand this, is this worth fixing now or later.

Benefits

  • Robust health, dental, and vision benefits
  • 401(k) with matching
  • Company-paid WFH setup
  • Hybrid work environment
  • The chance to build something meaningful with a supportive, collaborative team
