We enable efficient insurance sales and consulting processes. Become part of the team that moves the insurance market.
esurance is a Swiss InsurTech company. Our main product is a configurable insurance distribution platform that connects small and medium enterprises (SMEs), insurance providers, business application providers and brokers.
Through trust we create room for autonomy, responsibility and creativity.
Competence beats hierarchy; responsibility creates a motivating working atmosphere.
Clear goals and consistent feedback allows us to focus on professional and personal growth.
Just as important from time to time: to take a step back and acknowledge what we have accomplished.
esurance has a modern software architecture with multiple microservices and accordingly a modern team organisation with multiple teams. Most teams have front-end engineers. They are not only part of a formal team that maintains a microservice, but also part of an informal group called a guild.
I would describe my everyday life as a junior product owner as very varied. On the one hand, I have my regular meetings, such as the daily exchange with the developers and the corresponding weekly meetings with the external stakeholders.
As Platform Product Manager and Product Owner for the core services, I am constantly developing our overall platform and shaping our vision. The functional capabilities of the platform must meet both current and future requirements without becoming too complex.
When I was 4 years old my mother took me to her workplace and showed me a computer. It was a very old machine. I was totally fascinated, thinking that this is the most interesting thing I’ve ever seen. Fast forward 9 years, I’m writing my first lines of code on a piece of paper.
Insurance sales are individual - there is a huge range when it comes to the level of knowledge of the customers. As individual as the customers are, the path to conclusion must also be individual. Not losing this individuality in the digital context is esurance's mission.
