Policygenius is America's leading online insurance marketplace. Since 2014, our mission has been to help people get the financial protection they need (and feel good about it). We make it easy for our customers to understand their options, compare quotes, and buy insurance, all in one place. Our CEO and co-founder, Jennifer Fitzgerald, is one of only four women in the US fintech space to raise over $50 million in venture capital funding, and we’ve helped more than 30 million people shop for all types of insurance, placing over $35 billion in coverage to date.

At Policygenius, we’re proud of building an environment that encourages our teammates to bring their authentic selves to work. Despite rapid growth (we’ve doubled in size year over year!), we’ve continuously maintained our inclusive culture through humility, hard-work, and humor, and we're looking for more people with grit, collaborative attitudes, and creative problem-solving skills to join our team. Come see why we’ve been voted one of Inc. Magazine's "Best Workplaces" two years in a row!

Product Design at Policygenius

At Policygenius we’re fortunate to have founders and team leadership that recognize design as our primary problem-solving tool--not just a method for producing attractive interfaces. This means no thankless slogs trying to get support on major design/product projects. We’re all aware that our task is to reshape the way real people make informed decisions about their safety nets, and that design plays a major role in those journeys.

  • Report to the Chief Design Officer and partner with the full product team to identify key problems, find the right solutions, and usher them into reality
  • Contribute to the full product design cycle, from research and ideation, through execution
  • Partner with product design leads and PMs to conduct cross-team design workshops to achieve the best possible solutions
  • Sit next to and work with engineers, designers, and PMs daily, fulfilling our "no surprises" mantra
  • Help shape and participate in our user research and testing (generative and evaluative)
  • Become a champion for our brand guidelines (including design principles, the Pg voice, and visual standards) while helping shape the next iteration of our visual language
  • Rapidly produce concepts and prototypes; knowing when to harness the appropriate fidelity

You are...

  • A product designer with 5+ years of experience shaping complex software products
  • Of the belief that design should be a primary tool for problem-solving
  • Excited to tackle a monster, consumer-facing challenge being experienced by millions everyday
  • Significantly experienced in two of the three main product design disciplines: UI - UX - User Research
  • Comfortable taking the wheel to tackle complex and ambiguous problems
  • Excited to help shape our design culture here at Policygenius and looking to have one of those Lady & The Tramp spaghetti moments with your next employer

You'll get...

  • Company-paid health, dental, vision, life & disability insurance
  • 401(k) plan, FSA & commuter benefits
  • Flexible PTO
  • Training, mentorship and coaching from leadership
  • The opportunity to grow alongside a company shaking up a big, old-fashioned industry
  • Fun, diverse, open-minded coworkers
  • Dog companionship
  • Some fun surprises when you join… (Shhh… It’s a secret!)
