About The Position

As a Product Owner – Disability Claims, you will turn complex disability claims needs into clear product priorities and technology solutions that improve how insurers manage claims and serve policyholders. You will bring hands-on knowledge of disability claims processes and work closely with Product Management, customers, business stakeholders, engineering, and quality teams to define requirements, prioritize the product backlog, and guide work from concept through delivery. Your understanding of disability claims will help you anticipate customer needs, translate business processes into actionable requirements, and ensure our technology solves the right problems.
