Senior Technical Product Owner, Guardian Insights

As a Senior Product Owner, Guardian Insights you will help shape Guardian’s next-generation reporting and insights platform for group customers and brokers. You will redefine how employers and brokers understand key topics like plan performance, costs, and network engagement-enabling smarter decisions and better outcomes. You will translate the product vision into execution by owning the team backlog, guiding customer experience decisions, and driving delivery across data ingestion, APIs, event-driven workflows, and key engagement features. The role requires strong product instincts, technical fluency, and a bias toward decisive action, along with the ability to collaborate effectively across teams to deliver meaningful customer and business value.

• Bring customer feedback into prioritization to improve adoption, usability, and product impact.

• Maintain a consistent, practical quality bar-clear outcomes, intuitive user experiences, and reliable data-while saying “no” thoughtfully to lower-value work to protect team focus.

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent work experience

• A minimum of 5-7 years of experience in product management or a related field

• Proven experience in defining and driving product roadmaps, integrating customer research, and ensuring compliance with data/AI standards

• Experience supporting user-facing features, including web interfaces and email experiences.

• A high ownership mindset, resourcefulness, and the ability to move quickly and figure things out.
