About the Role
MIS (Mainstreet Insurance Solutions), part of The Baldwin Group, is looking for an experienced Product Manager to own the Stratus platform — our customized Salesforce CRM and the operational core of our embedded insurance business. This role leads product strategy, roadmap execution, and cross-functional delivery for Stratus and sits at the intersection of advisor tooling, partner integrations, and carrier connectivity.
You will work closely with engineering, operations, and business leadership to ship high-impact improvements that directly enable advisor productivity, partner growth, and our embedded insurance distribution strategy.
What You'll Own
Platform Roadmap & Delivery
- Own the Stratus product roadmap end-to-end — from intake and prioritization through launch and adoption
- Define and maintain a clear, prioritized backlog that balances near-term business needs with longer-horizon platform investments
- Translate requirements from business stakeholders, operations, and distribution partners into well-scoped, actionable epics and stories
- Partner with engineering to streamline release processes and advocate for delivery practices that get improvements into advisors' hands faster
Advisor & Operations Enablement
- Serve as the product owner for advisor-facing workflows — including quoting, cross-sell prompts, document automation, and carrier payment workflows
- Identify and eliminate friction points in day-to-day advisor workflows through data analysis, user observation, and close partnership with operations leadership
- Coordinate across platform teams to ensure carrier eligibility rules, compliance requirements, and appointment-based controls are accurately reflected in the CRM
Partner & Carrier Integration
- Own the CRM layer of carrier and distribution partner integrations — ensuring new carriers and partners are onboarded into scalable, well-documented workflows
- Collaborate with quoting and lead orchestration teams to maintain data integrity, routing accuracy, and a consistent experience across the platform
- Support the ongoing expansion of MIS's carrier network and distribution partnerships by ensuring Stratus can scale to meet new volume and product requirements
Stakeholder Alignment
- Serve as the primary product voice for Stratus in business reviews, leadership updates, and cross-functional planning sessions
- Build strong working relationships across operations, data, telephony, and technology teams to keep roadmap dependencies visible and sequenced
- Support executive communications with clear delivery status, risk visibility, and ROI framing for platform investments
What We're Looking For
Required Experience
- 4+ years of product management experience, with at least 2 years owning a Salesforce-based platform in a B2B or enterprise context
- Demonstrated ability to manage complex, multi-team roadmaps with competing priorities and shared infrastructure dependencies
- Strong understanding of CRM workflows, advisor or agent tooling, and integration patterns (APIs, middleware, webhooks)
- Experience working within enterprise release and change management processes, with the ability to advocate for smarter, faster delivery practices
- Exceptional communication skills — able to translate technical constraints into business language and vice versa
Preferred Experience
- Insurance, insurtech, mortgage, or fintech industry background
- Familiarity with policy management systems (e.g., Applied Epic), quoting platforms, or embedded distribution models
- Experience with contact center platform integrations (e.g., CxOne, NICE) or real-time agent coaching tools (e.g., Balto)
- Exposure to AI/ML-powered product features, lead scoring, or automation workflows
- Salesforce admin or developer certification is a plus but not required
Who Thrives Here
- You're comfortable in a fast-moving environment where the roadmap evolves and you're expected to exercise judgment, not just follow a playbook
- You build trust with both technical teams and business stakeholders — and know when to push back vs. when to align
- You care about the downstream impact of what you ship: advisor outcomes, partner retention, and conversion metrics
- You see operational constraints as problems to solve, not just limitations to accept
