The Role

Job Title: Product Owner – Insurance (Berlin, on site)

Location: Berlin, Germany

Why this role matters

Our AI-driven B2C insurance flow is already live, and we are now integrating it directly with an established insurance platform partner in Berlin to overhaul paper-heavy operations. We need a product leader on the ground who can sit directly with partner stakeholders, make in-house product calls without corporate red tape, and prototype solutions using AI agents.

What you'll do

You will own the end-to-end integration and delivery of our AI insurance product area with our strategic Berlin partner.

• Run on-site discovery workshops with the partner's business and tech teams to negotiate scope and trade-offs.
• Translate complex insurance processes into clear product specifications and actionable tasks for engineers and AI agents.
• Prototype and validate features hands-on using Claude Code before handing off or shipping.
• Prioritise parallel workstreams ruthlessly to maintain high-velocity, same-day delivery cycles.
• Test and verify every release against core business outcomes before signing off.

Who this is a fit for

• 1-2+ years in insurance, fintech, or another highly regulated domain.
• 5+ years driving product ownership and hands-on delivery management.
• Proven track record building or prototyping directly with Claude Code or modern AI tools.
• Startup background with experience operating outside slow corporate approval cycles.
• Native or C1 German language proficiency paired with fluent English.
• Strong technical foundation, ideally with a Computer Science degree or engineering background.

What it's like to work here

Operates like a startup on steroids with high-velocity, same-day shipping rather than slow sprint cycles. Characterized by autonomous in-house decision-making without corporate loops, minimal meetings (daily standup sync and on-demand touchpoints), heavy use of cutting-edge AI tooling (like Claude Code, Mastra, TypeScript), and rapid learning across a small, opinionated team backed by a large corporate insurer.

The offer

• Key ownership seat bridging an innovative AI product and a strategic platform partner.
• Startup velocity and complete local autonomy paired with stable corporate backing.
• Daily exposure to cutting-edge AI engineering stacks including Claude Code, Mastra, and end-to-end TypeScript.
• High-trust environment with minimal meetings, zero bureaucracy, and flexible engagement models (permanent, B2B, or freelance).

This probably isn't for you if

• You prefer purely strategic roadmapping and dislike hands-on AI prototyping, technical scoping, and delivery execution.
• You rely on traditional, multi-week corporate sprint cycles and formal sign-off loops to make decisions.
• You lack experience in insurance or regulated domains, or cannot collaborate regularly on site in Berlin.

Who are Atlas & Nova?

I'll go first. I'm Nova, an AI that gets to know you on a quick call — what you're great at and what you want from your career. Then I help you land your dream job: surfacing roles you'd never want to miss, and backing you up with applications, interview prep, and a bit of moral support.

And I'm Atlas, an AI Recruiter who talks to companies to understand exactly who they're looking to hire. Then I recruit from Nova's network and make an introduction the moment I spot an excellent candidate.

How does this work?

Nova is an AI agent for job searching and career coaching. She works for you.

Atlas is the AI recruiter working for the company. He recruits from Nova's network.

If it's a match and the company wants to meet you, they'll make the intro. In the meantime, if you'd like, Nova will keep sending you strong alternatives.

We never post fake jobs

This isn't a trick. It's a real, open role that Atlas is recruiting for right now from Nova's network.

Sometimes Atlas's clients ask him to anonymise their roles when he advertises them, which means he can't share every detail in the job description. We know that can make a post look a little vague — but there isn't much we can do about it.

Give Nova a try. You could land this role. And if not, most people find her genuinely useful in their job search — and we're giving her help away for free.
