Lead Product Manager

Who we are:

Nirvana is on a mission to harness the power of data to revolutionize commercial insurance and enable a safer world. We are bringing much-needed innovation into the legacy, trillion-dollar commercial insurance industry.

We’ve already proven the scale—serving thousands of fleets and more than doubling our written premiums year over year.
