GEICO is seeking a Principal Product Manager to lead critical modernization efforts within our Policy Platform. This role will focus on simplifying GEICO’s policy management system, decomposing monolithic components into modular, domain-driven microservices, and establishing a foundation for our next-generation policy platform. You will work across engineering, architecture, and partner business systems to deliver immediate, high-impact improvements while shaping the long-term modernization strategy.

This position is ideal for a seasoned product manager who thrives on untangling complex systems, driving clarity in ambiguity, and balancing tactical wins with strategic transformation.

• Lead the initiative to decompose the existing monolithic policy management system into independent, domain-based microservices aligned with future-state architecture.
• Collaborate with engineering and architecture to define API-first integration strategies & service boundaries to build a more modular, scalable platform.

• Simplify the current business rules implementation, which spans several lines & states that are co-mingled within a single configuration.
• Establish a rules taxonomy and modularization strategy that enables cleaner separation of state-specific and product-specific rules.

• Engage with partner systems across the enterprise (Underwriting, Billing, Claims, Customer Service, etc.) to identify critical pain points in current-state integrations.
• Drive incremental improvements that directly reduce operational friction, improve data quality, and increase policy system reliability — delivering value before full modernization is complete.
• Prioritize opportunities that maximize business impact while maintaining architectural integrity.

• Define and maintain a clear, measurable modernization roadmap with milestones, KPIs, and stakeholder visibility.
• Balance short-term tactical fixes with long-term modernization goals to ensure consistent progress.
• Collaborate closely with engineering, program management, and business operations to ensure delivery predictability and alignment with platform strategy.

• Act as the voice of the customer and partner systems within the Policy Platform team, ensuring product decisions are data-driven and outcome-oriented.
• Communicate progress, trade-offs, and key learnings effectively to executive stakeholders and partner teams.

• 6+ years of Product Management experience in complex enterprise platforms, within insurance or fintech.
• Strong track record of simplifying legacy systems, driving system decomposition, and leading modernization initiatives.
• Experience in microservice-based architecture, API ecosystems, and rules engine frameworks.

• Exceptional ability to translate complex technical challenges into clear business outcomes and actionable roadmaps.

• Strong collaboration and influence skills across product, engineering, and business domains.

• Hands-on experience with policy management or insurance platforms, such as Duck Creek, Guidewire, or in-house policy systems.
• Exposure to SaaS vendor evaluations.
• Experience working within multi-state, multi-product line insurance ecosystems.
• Understanding of data model design, configuration management, and compliance validation in policy administration systems.
• Demonstrated success driving incremental modernization in parallel with long-term platform transformation.
