PURPOSE
Find the problem worth solving, turn it into a live buildable backlog, redesign the process around AI and make sure the value lands.
Job Responsibilities
- Run continuous direct discovery with process owners and front-line users; discovery is delivery work.
- Identify the real broken process and express the value hypothesis in terms a P&L owner recognises.
- Convert discovery into a live, prioritised backlog the AI-FDE can build against immediately.
- Own process redesign and adoption: the change counts only when customer people use the new process.
- Hold scope to the measurable business outcome through MVE build, validation and production.
- Present results and next priorities from front line to executive sponsor; feed patterns to the catalogue and R&D.
- Partners one-to-one with the AI-FDE. Not the BVDE (account-level value) or PDE (programme and commercial). Customer process owners co-own adoption.
How success is judged:
- Quality and value of the backlog, not volume of requirements.
- Measured production outcome and customer adoption.
- Speed from idea to buildable use case; value delivered per account and expansion.
Job Requirements
• 8+ years in P&C or L&A insurance operations or consulting; process redesign and business cases.• Domain-expert-challenger; executive presence with COOs and CUOs and with front-line users.
• Working data fluency (SQL, Python or advanced Excel); low ego, high tolerance for ambiguity.
• A record of process redesign that delivered a measurable result: cost, speed, loss ratio or customer experience.
• Curiosity about AI: you have led automation or AI work, or you are ready to learn fast inside a pod.
• Experience of core insurance systems or Sapiens implementations would desired but not essential
Job Benefits
- Total target cash at the top quarter of the market, with 25% variable tied to the value you deliver.
- A team of engineers who build what you design, on a platform made for insurance.
- A role at the start of a new model in the industry, with room to grow into pod and regional leadership.

Prepare your application
Use the description above to assess your fit for Sapiens. This checklist is guidance from Resumize, rather than additional requirements from the employer. Imported listings can be shortened or change after collection, so confirm the complete description and current availability before sending an application.
Match requirements to evidence
Identify the responsibilities and skills the employer explicitly names. For each important requirement, choose one example from your work, education, training, or projects. Explain what you did, how you did it, and what changed as a result. Include a measurable outcome when you can support it. If you lack a requirement, describe related experience accurately instead of adding an unfamiliar skill to your resume.
Put the most relevant examples near the top of your resume. Keep job titles, dates, qualifications, and contact details consistent across your application materials. Use the employer’s terminology when it describes your experience accurately; a copied list of keywords does not explain your contribution. A short, specific bullet is easier to review than a paragraph that mixes several unrelated duties.
Check the working arrangement
Confirm the location, schedule, employment type, and any eligibility requirements on the employer’s site. A remote label does not establish worldwide eligibility or flexible hours. If compensation, benefits, equipment, travel, or contract duration are missing from this listing, write down your questions for the recruiter. Do not assume details from another opening at the same company apply to this role.
Review before submitting
Follow the employer’s requested file format and application instructions. Open your exported resume and check that its text is selectable, its sections read in order, and its links work. Proofread names, dates, and contact information. Share confidential work samples only when you have permission, and use an anonymized example when necessary.
Submit through a trusted employer or recruiting destination. If the original listing has disappeared, search the employer’s careers page for the title rather than assuming the vacancy remains open. Save the application date, job reference, and the version of your resume you sent. Those details help you prepare for a later conversation and avoid submitting conflicting information through several job boards.
Review your resume for writing and readability feedback, or browse other openings if this opportunity is unavailable.
