Position: Product Owner
Location: Irving, TX
Duration : 6 Month Contract-to-Hire
Rate Range: $50-60/hr
Position Overview
Our client, a growing organization in the insurance technology space, is seeking a Business Analyst / Product Owner to support homeowner insurance product initiatives. This role was created as part of a strategic shift combining traditional Product Owner and Business Analyst responsibilities into a single, highly collaborative position.
The individual will work closely with cross‑functional product, engineering, and business stakeholders to support both existing and new insurance products. While the role leans more heavily toward Business Analysis, there are workstreams where the individual will operate with a Product Manager mindset—particularly as new products are introduced and owned through their lifecycle.
