Founding Senior Product Manager (German-speaking)

We are looking for a Founding Senior Product Manager to join our AI-first company and help us revolutionize the insurance industry. You will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our AI agents, transforming the daily work of insurance brokers. This is a unique opportunity to join a fast-scaling startup as one of the first employees and significantly impact the company and the industry.

Activities

As a Founding Senior Product Manager, you will be the bridge between our insurance brokerage customers, the market, and our engineering & AI teams. Your deep understanding of product building will be critical in shaping the next generation of AI agents that transform brokers’ daily work into a simple and intuitive product experience.

You will translate complex broker workflows into clear user journeys, prioritize the right problems, and ensure that Afori always builds what matters most. You will help to build the most modern insurance brokers and will focus on creating AI that can take over 80% of the daily repetitive work of the brokers.

Key Responsibilities:

• Own core product areas and help define the roadmap that automates backoffice and customer-facing workflows for brokers.
• Deeply understand the core pain points and optimization potentials of insurance brokers in Germany to decide on what to build first.
• Analyze and translate insurance processes (Deckungsprüfungen, Schadenmeldungen, Vertragsänderungen, Angebotsanfragen, etc.) into clear product specifications for engineering and AI teams.
• Lead continuous user interviews, feedback loops, and shadow sessions with brokers to test assumptions early and often.
• Drive outcomes, not outputs: from hypothesis to launch to iteration.
• Use both qualitative and quantitative insights to refine prioritization and measure success.

Requirements

Technical Skills:

• 5+ years working as a product owner, product lead in a high growth environment.
• Experience in building B2B products, preferably in Insurtech or Fintech.
• Fluent German and English: you can communicate naturally with brokers and industry experts.
• Proven experience in product management, process optimization, or solution building.
• Strong understanding of how to drive automation in B2B workflows, increasing efficiency, while keeping the user experience intuitive.
• Ability to break down complex operational challenges into simple, elegant product solutions and communicate those clearly.

Cultural Fit:

• You thrive in a high-performance team that debates ideas fiercely but unites behind decisions.
• You’re hands-on: You do not stop until 100% of the task is delivered and enjoy shipping fast.
• You embody “there’s always a solution”, no task is too ambiguous.
