First Connect is a digital marketplace providing independent insurance agents access to top US carriers and the optionality necessary to grow their businesses.
The platform’s standout feature is a robust comparative rater that lets insurance agents input data just once to generate multiple insurance quotes for their clients. FC aims to continually expand its network of insurance providers by integrating more companies via APIs, making it easy to access a wide range of insurance products.
First Connect is an independent startup that recently spun out of Hippo Insurance and is now building its own unique future. At SwingDev—a hippo company, we’re proud to be their long-term strategic partner. Want to learn more? Let’s discuss it on our first call!
What’s our culture like?
„We’re all about people” – yes, it may sound a bit cliche. But whether we’re writing code or just hanging out, we know that people are at the heart of everything we do. We like to have a good time and keep things light, even when we’re tackling big projects. We could brag about what’s making us special, but we’ve boiled it down to two key ingredients: mature, companionable people who, rather than compete, prefer to inspire and have each other’s backs; a culture of trust, empathy, and positivity that keeps us together, lets us interact as teammates and friends, and truly enjoy the ride.
So if you’re a Product Manager looking to shake things up and have a good time while you’re at it, you’ve come to the right place. 🚀
About the role:
This role sits at the heart of First Connect’s agent experience. Carrier access is our core value prop – it’s why agents come to us and how they grow their book of business. You’ll lead the vision, execution, and ongoing optimization of how agents qualify for, gain access to, and manage access with 140+ carriers – while meeting complex regulatory requirements and delivering world–class user experience.
This is a foundational product role with high autonomy, broad scope, and direct impact on our agent experience. If you love taking ownership and working in a high-growth environment, this is the role for you!
What will you do?
- You’ll improve and expand dynamic carrier workflows used in 140+ end-to-end carrier processes.
- You’ll own the Carrier Store (central marketplace experience where agents discover and request access to carriers) to be more actionable, personalized, and clear.
- You’ll design agent experiences that clarify what’s needed next and reduce support dependency.
- You’ll ensure all flows are modular, scalable, and adaptable to carrier-specific requirements.
- You’ll own product compliance across onboarding, carrier access, and ongoing agent journey.
- You’ll collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, Design, our US-based business team, as well as external partners to translate problem-areas and requirements into high-quality features and ensure compliance rules are met without creating unnecessary friction.
- You’ll own the entire discovery-to-delivery cycle – spotting user pain points, researching solutions, testing them out, and getting them live.
- You’ll use data, market trends, and user insights to make smart, informed decisions every day.
