Senior Product Manager: Applied AI

Senior Product Manager:
Applied AI

The Zebra revolutionizes how connected consumers research and shop for insurance. We intentionally strive to build diverse teams that feel inclusive for all. Our motto is "All Stripes Welcome," and we put that into practice by valuing both traditional and non-conventional backgrounds and perspectives. Our Zeebs are passionate about learning, growing, and working together to tackle exciting problems.

Our Product Team is expanding, and we are seeking an experienced, hands-on Senior Product Manager to join our Applied AI pod. In this individual contributor role, your mission is to 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 key business metrics.

This role sits at a unique intersection: you will own a dedicated roadmap for zero-to-one AI features while also collaborating with consumer-facing PMs across other verticals (such as our primary conversion funnel) to embed applied AI capabilities into their flows. Operating on a fast-moving pod, you will utilize rapid prototyping and modern AI-assisted development workflows to turn concepts into production-ready features at high velocity.

Reporting directly to the Director of Product, Applied AI, you will help lead the discipline of AI-driven product strategy across the organization.

Our employees can choose to work remotely in the U.S. Join us in our Austin, Texas office, or opt for a hybrid setup. Whether you prefer the structure of an office, the convenience of remote work, or a mix of both, we support what works best for you.

Please note:

At this time we are not able to hire in Massachusetts.
