Job Description
What We Do
We provide savings on insurance premiums for commercial businesses that are leveraging modern technology on their worksites.
While we began with commercial construction, we're expanding into adjacent sectors, including Energy, Agriculture, and Real Estate.
Our Investors
To date, Shepherd has raised over $20M from leading investors, including:
Y Combinator – W21 cohort
Susa Ventures – lead our Pre-Seed round
Spark Capital - lead our Seed round
Costanoa Ventures + Intact Ventures – lead our Series A round
And several more.
Our Team
We're a team of technologists and insurance enthusiasts, bridging the two worlds together. Check out our team page to meet some of us!
The Role
You will be spearheading our Pricing product alongside Ethan, finding unique datasets, testing and implementing strategic pricing models.
About You
You love turning data into decisions — you’re excited about transforming pricing into a competitive advantage by integrating new data sources, deploying predictive models, and building scalable infrastructure.
You thrive in fast-moving environments — balancing actuarial, engineering, and underwriting inputs to ship models and tools that make an immediate business impact.
You’re adaptable and resourceful — when experiments don’t work as planned, you pivot quickly, test new ideas, and keep pushing forward.
You’ll work closely with leadership — reporting directly into the CTO/cofounder while collaborating with actuarial, underwriting, and engineering leaders across the company.
You want to build in person with us — this role is based at our San Francisco HQ, where we love solving problems side-by-side.
What You’ll Do
Own the pricing product roadmap — from idea to launch: write PRDs, define infrastructure needs, and partner with actuaries and engineers to ship models into production.
Be the voice of “why” — align underwriting, actuarial, and leadership around how new models, data sources, and infrastructure strengthen Shepherd’s growth and capacity story.
Keep things moving — prioritize ruthlessly, manage cross-functional dependencies, and ensure pricing milestones land on time (and with measurable impact).
You’d be our dream candidate if…
You’re a builder at heart — with 4+ years of product management experience in data/ML-heavy or pricing-related products, skilled at working with both technical and business stakeholders.
You make things happen — experienced in driving data/ML initiatives forward, balancing short-term delivery with long-term scalability, and thriving in fast-moving environments.
You’re a communicator and collaborator — comfortable translating technical complexity (models, APIs, registries) into clear business impact, and aligning diverse teams around outcomes.
Bonus points for experience in insurance, fintech or other modeling-heavy industries.
