About the role

View original

This is a high-ownership “do whatever it takes” role for someone who wants to operate at founder speed, learn the full stack of an insurance/warranty business, and ship work that directly moves revenue, conversion, and retention.

What you’ll do

  • You will build the agentic layer of our core product: AI systems that reason, take actions, and reliably complete workflows across pricing/underwriting, policy issuance, claims intake, adjudication, fulfillment (repair/replacement/reimbursement), and other parts of the bueinsess.

  • Key responsibilities

  • Design and ship production-grade AI agents that run real business processes (not demos)

  • Build agentic architectures: orchestration, tool calling, state machines, memory, permissions, audit trails, human-in-the-loop, and fallback paths

  • Own our RAG platform end-to-end: ingestion, chunking, embeddings, retrieval, reranking, citations/grounding, and hallucination mitigation

  • Build evaluation and monitoring systems: offline eval sets, regression tests, online metrics, drift detection, and red-team suites

  • Implement model optimization: prompt systems, structured outputs, fine-tuning where appropriate, latency/cost optimization, caching, and throughput tuning

  • Build core ML systems for warranty/claims: document understanding, extraction, classification, anomaly/fraud signals, decision support, and SLA routing

  • Partner tightly with product/ops to translate real workflows into deterministic, testable, compliant automation

What you’ll build (examples)

  • Underwriting/pricing agents: real-time quote decisions using merchant/product/context signals with strict guardrails and auditability

  • Claims copilot + auto-adjudication engine: intake triage, evidence requests, decision proposals with explanation, vendor routing, reimbursement automation

  • OEM warranty parsing system: turn messy manufacturer policies into machine-readable coverage logic

  • Internal ops copilots: tooling that reduces manual work and increases consistency across customer support, compliance, and finance

Requirements (must have)

  • (Hiring at different levels for the same role - required experience years, expected skill level will vary as per role level)

  • 1+ years building and shipping ML/LLM systems in production (or equivalent founder-level experience)

  • Proven experience building agentic products/companies: multi-step workflows, tool use, orchestration, reliability engineering

  • Deep hands-on expertise in:

  • RAG and retrieval systems (vector databases, reranking, grounding strategies)

  • LLM evals (golden sets, automated judging, human eval, regression pipelines)

  • Prompting and structured outputs (schemas, function/tool calling, robustness)

  • Model training/fine-tuning fundamentals and tradeoffs (when to tune vs prompt vs retrieve)

  • Strong software engineering: clean APIs, testing, observability, performance tuning, secure-by-default design

  • Comfortable owning ambiguous problems end-to-end and driving them to measurable outcomes

  • Strong preference (nice to have)

  • Experience building systems with compliance/audit requirements (fintech/insurance/health/enterprise)

  • Experience with document AI at scale (PDFs, images, messy inputs), and extracting structured truth reliably

  • Experience designing human-in-the-loop workflows and escalation rules for high-stakes decisions

  • Experience with infra for LLMs: model hosting, batching, streaming, caching, prompt/version management

  • Startup or ex-founder background, especially shipping 0→1 products fast

  • What success looks like (first 90 days)

  • You ship an agentic workflow that replaces meaningful manual ops work and improves a measurable metric (cycle time, accuracy, cost per claim, attach rate, CSAT)

  • You implement an eval harness that catches regressions before production and gives us a reliable “quality score” per workflow

  • You establish a scalable architecture pattern for agents (permissions, audit logs, observability, fallbacks) that the team can replicate

  • Tech environment

  • We’re cloud-native and move fast. Expect Python for ML/agents, TypeScript for product surfaces, Postgres for systems of record, event-driven services, and a modern LLM + retrieval stack with strong observability and CI/CD. And AWS+Azure for infra.

  • Why this role is special

  • Build an AI-native category-defining company in a massive market

  • Direct founder exposure and high leverage: your work will change the trajectory of the company

  • Real breadth: growth + underwriting/claims ops + product, in one seat

  • Career accelerant: if you perform, your scope and title will grow quickly

  • How to Apply

  • Please ensure your profile is up to date and includes a link to your LinkedIn.

  • In your application message, share 3 things you’ve built or delivered with the results you achieved in one simple sentence per example (3 sentences total).
