The restaurants where you love to eat, the schools where your children learn, and the businesses that are creating our future all need insurance to protect them as they shape the world.  Sadly, though, the process of buying and selling insurance today is an administrative nightmare and these companies waste countless hours filling out forms when they could be serving you better.  Broker Buddha has created a new technology to reshape and simplify insurance application process today for every business, broker, and carrier in the US and we need a product designer to help us scale.  

What you’ll be doing

Imagine leading product design for a company that can reshape the way $350B of insurance is bought and sold every year in the US.  As our product design lead, reporting directly to the Head of Product, you will be responsible for defining and designing the user experience and the user interface for all new features going forward, plus help us make improvements to what we already have.  

Like a good challenge?  Welcome to commercial insurance.  Organizing complex data sets and designing seamless workflows that streamline processes while informing users about what’s happening along the way is no simple task.  This is a startup, so you’ll be asked to do a lot, but at a minimum, you’ll be responsible for
