Job description

First Connect is a digital marketplace providing independent insurance agents access to top US carriers and the optionality necessary to grow their businesses.

The platform’s standout feature is a robust comparative rater that lets insurance agents input data just once to generate multiple insurance quotes for their clients. FC aims to continually expand its network of insurance providers by integrating more companies via APIs, making it easy to access a wide range of insurance products.

First Connect is an independent startup that recently spun out of Hippo Insurance and is now building its own unique future. At SwingDev—a hippo company, were proud to be their longterm strategic partner. Want to learn more? Let’s discuss it on our first call!

What’s our culture like?

„Were all about people” yes, it may sound a bit cliche. But whether were writing code or just hanging out, we know that people are at the heart of everything we do. We like to have a good time and keep things light, even when were tackling big projects. We could brag about what’s making us special, but we’ve boiled it down to two key ingredients: mature, companionable people who, rather than compete, prefer to inspire and have each other’s backs; a culture of trust, empathy, and positivity that keeps us together, lets us interact as teammates and friends, and truly enjoy the ride.

So if youre a Product Manager looking to shake things up and have a good time while youre at it, you’ve come to the right place. 🚀

About the role:

This role sits at the heart of First Connect’s agent experience. Carrier access is our core value prop – it’s why agents come to us and how they grow their book of business. You’ll lead the vision, execution, and ongoing optimization of how agents qualify for, gain access to, and manage access with 140+ carriers – while meeting complex regulatory requirements and delivering world–class user experience.

This is a foundational product role with high autonomy, broad scope, and direct impact on our agent experience. If you love taking ownership and working in a highgrowth environment, this is the role for you!


What will you do?
  • Youll improve and expand dynamic carrier workflows used in 140+ endtoend carrier processes.
  • Youll own the Carrier Store (central marketplace experience where agents discover and request access to carriers) to be more actionable, personalized, and clear.
  • Youll design agent experiences that clarify what’s needed next and reduce support dependency.
  • Youll ensure all flows are modular, scalable, and adaptable to carrierspecific requirements.
  • Youll own product compliance across onboarding, carrier access, and ongoing agent journey.
  • Youll collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, Design, our USbased business team, as well as external partners to translate problemareas and requirements into highquality features and ensure compliance rules are met without creating unnecessary friction.
  • Youll own the entire discoverytodelivery cycle – spotting user pain points, researching solutions, testing them out, and getting them live.
  • Youll use data, market trends, and user insights to make smart, informed decisions every day.

  • We might be a match if you…
  • Have at least 4 years of product management experience, ideally in B2B SaaS, marketplaces.
  • Have a solid track record of launching technical products or features that made a real impact on both users and business.
  • Use data – both quantitative and qualitative, to guide your decisions.
  • Understand how software is built and have a solid grasp of SDLC.
  • Have worked closely with engineering and know your way around agile development (whether it’s SCRUM, XP, or something else), believing in shipping incrementally rather than waiting for big monthly releases.
  • Have a high ownership mindset – feel comfortable navigating ambiguity and pushing initiatives forward.
  • Can juggle multiple projects without dropping the ball and communicate clearly with both tech and nontech teams.
  • Have a great command of English (both written & spoken).
  • Are available in the afternoons – youll join a PolishAmerican team, so you should expect afternoon meetings [about 2 days a week]. Rest assured, we prioritize worklife fit, respect everyones private lives, and don’t work at night but we still must ensure that communication between the time zones is effective.

  • You will get extra points for:
  • Startup experience.
  • Experience working in the Insurance industry.

  • Recruitment process:
  • Send us your CV – its the best way for us to get to know you.
  • Meet Gabi, one of our Recruiters.
  • Join for an interview with our Sr. Product Manager, John.
  • Meet your engineering team, Krzysztof and Wojtek.
  • Complete the recruitment task and discuss your solution with Yotam (Chief Product Officer) and the people you met earlier.
  • Have a short, 1o1 discussion with Yotam.
  • and... welcome aboard! 👋
  • What benefits are waiting for you?
