About the Role

At ACKO, we believe claims are the moment that defines an insurance company. Every interaction, every decision and every minute spent waiting shapes customer trust.

We are looking for a Head of Product – Claims & Customer Experience to build the future of claims.

Reporting to Head of Auto Business, you will define the long-term product vision for one of ACKO's most strategic customer journeys. Your mandate is to transform claims into an AI-first, technology-driven platform that delivers exceptional customer experiences while creating sustainable operational advantage.

This role sits at the intersection of Product, AI, Data, Customer Experience and Claims Operations.

You will also lead the Product team responsible for Claims and Customer Experience, partnering closely with Engineering to build intelligent products that redefine the future of insurance claims.

With access to one of India's richest proprietary claims datasets - including more than eight years of claims history, millions of vehicle images and operational intelligence - you will have a unique opportunity to build AI-native capabilities that create a lasting competitive advantage for ACKO.

This is not a role about optimizing today's processes. It is about building the claims platform of the future.
