Job Description:

What is the role?
As a Product Manager for Cotality Hazard and Catastrophe Products , you will own the vision, strategy, and roadmap for a subset of our suite of catastrophe and risk products. You will lead the development of high-resolution hazard solutions, probabilistic catastrophe models, and property-level risk scores that help insurers, reinsurers, and financial institutions quantify the impact of wildfire in a changing climate.

Product Strategy & Roadmap: Define the "View of Risk" for models and risk scoring products, Determining where to invest based on market and customer inputs and charting a path via roadmap collaboratively

Scientific Collaboration: Partner with scientists and meteorologists to translate complex stochastic event sets into actionable insurance metrics like Average Annual Loss (AAL) and Probable Maximum Loss (PML).

Regulatory & Compliance: Lead the submission process for state regulatory bodies (e.g., California Department of Insurance). Ensure the model is "filable" by carriers and meets all transparency and non-discriminatory requirements.

Market Discovery: Actively engage with Chief Underwriting Officers and Catastrophe Managers to understand how they use risk scores for "point-of-quote" decisions vs. portfolio-level risk management.

Go-to-Market (GTM): Work with Sales and Marketing to articulate the "edge" of your model (e.g., "Our model better captures the Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) transition zones than the competition"). Present to the industry and stakeholders providing thought leadership and insight into product lines and roadmaps.

Required Qualifications

• Experience: 5+ years in Product Management, ideally within InsurTech, Fintech, or Geospatial Data.

• Knowledge of the application of risk modeling and product lines in insurance.

• Preferable experience in the development and delivery of wildfire

• Domain Expertise: Familiarity with GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Catastrophe Modeling software (e.g., Touchstone, Risk Modeler).

• Analytical Rigor: Ability to speak "Actuary." You should understand probability distributions, exceedance probability (EP) curves, and tail risk.

• Technical Literacy: Comfort with APIs and cloud-native data delivery. You don't need to code the model, but you must understand how a client's underwriting system calls your risk score via REST API.

• Education: Bachelor's or Master's in a quantitative field (Environmental Science, Data Science, Economics, or Engineering).
