About the role
If you've spent years working in crop insurance and found yourself thinking there has to be a better way to do this - this role was built for you. Ever.Ag is looking for a Product Owner who brings deep crop insurance industry knowledge and a genuine passion for building software that makes agents' and customers' lives easier. You won't be translating someone else's vision - you'll be shaping it. On a lean, collaborative team where product sits at the center of everything, your fingerprints will be on what gets built, when it launches, and how it lands with customers. This is a role for someone who loves the puzzle: listening carefully, thinking critically, and finding elegant solutions to problems that don't have obvious answers. If you're excited - not intimidated - by how AI is changing software development, even better!
Responsibilities
- You'll own the full product lifecycle for your assigned projects - from idea to backlog to launch and beyond. Day to day, that looks like:
- Setting and defending priorities in the product backlog based on customer needs, business commitments, and product vision
- Translating customer and stakeholder input into clear user stories, acceptance criteria, and functional requirements
- Collaborating closely with developers and architects to scope, refine, and estimate work - and making sure what ships actually delivers the intended value
- Building mockups and prototypes to bring ideas to life before a single line of code is written
- Presenting demos to internal and external audiences and documenting new features through release notes, learning guides, and user documentation
- Testing delivered features to confirm they meet acceptance criteria and supporting user acceptance testing
- Staying current on your product's capabilities and serving as the internal go-to expert
- Advocating relentlessly for the customer - even when that means pushing back
- What You Bring
- Crop insurance industry experience is required. You understand the workflows, the terminology, the regulatory landscape, and the pain points. You can speak the language of an agent or adjuster - and you use that knowledge to build better software.
- 5+ years in a Product Owner or Business Analyst role supporting software development teams required
- Strong ability to listen, synthesize, document, and communicate across technical and non-technical audiences
- Comfort working through ambiguity - you don't need a perfect playbook to do great work
- Proficiency with Microsoft Office required; experience with Jira and Confluence is a plus
- A bachelor's degree or equivalent combination of experience and training
- Why AgencyRoot by Ever.Ag
- Small team, big impact. You'll be one of three people on the product team - your work won't get lost in layers of bureaucracy.
- A seat at the table. Product is central to what AgencyRoot does. You'll work directly with leadership, customers, sales, and development - not in isolation.
- Real variety. No two projects look alike. Some will move the revenue needle; others will quietly save the company money or make operations more efficient. Both matter here.
- AI is on the roadmap - in a real way. We're actively rethinking how the product development cycle works in the age of AI, and we want someone who wants to help define that, not resist it.
- A team that actually talks to each other. The full AgencyRoot team connects weekly - collaboration here is genuine, not a buzzword.
- Who you will be working for
- We welcome candidates from all backgrounds to contribute their unique perspectives to our team. Your success is our success!
