Federato is on a mission to defend the right to efficient, equitable insurance for all. We enable insurers to provide affordable coverage to people and organizations facing the issues of today - the climate crisis, cyber-attacks, social inflation, etc. Our vision is understood and well funded by those behind Salesforce, Veeva, Zoom, Box, etc.
Federato is the only AI-native platform that spans the full policy lifecycle and changes the way insurance work gets done. Better decisioning is built-in, not bolted on: insurers' unique portfolio goals, strategies, rules, and appetite are part of the workflow so underwriters win the right deals, faster. From the moment a submission hits an underwriter’s inbox, AI is put to work, triaging submissions with a focus on high-appetite business, delivering real-time feedback on the portfolio, and consolidating workflows into a single proven system. Federato drives better business outcomes.
What you'll be doing:
- Project Planning & Execution: Lead the planning, execution, and delivery of customer-facing projects, ensuring all milestones and deadlines are met.

- Risk Management: Proactively identify and manage risks, providing mitigation plans to ensure successful project delivery.
- Quality Assurance & Testing: Ensure that all deliverables meet the required quality standards and customer expectations by working closely with the QA team during the development lifecycle.
- Support Request Processing & Analysis: Manage and analyze customer support requests related to software delivery, identifying trends and potential issues, and ensuring timely resolution by coordinating with the appropriate teams.
- User Training & Office Hours: Lead user training sessions and conduct office hours to ensure customers are equipped to use the software effectively. Provide ongoing support during and after training to address any questions or challenges.
- Customer Usage Tracking & Improvement: Monitor customer usage of the software to identify adoption gaps or underutilized features. Proactively work with customers to improve software usage and drive greater value from the solution.
