Job description

At Prediction Lab, we're building the predictive modeling platform for teams and agents. AI has fundamentally changed how software gets built, and we're bringing that same transformation to predictive modeling.

Founded in 2025, Prediction Lab is a B2B SaaS company looking to hire a world-class team of builders to lead the way in predictive modeling. We're passionate about enabling our users to solve real-world problems with the latest advancements in machine learning and generative AI. We focus relentlessly on delivering the best value to our users, ship with incredible speed, and care deeply about the user experience.

As a small team, we're all generalists that work across the full stack and have deep expertise in predictive modeling. We're looking for builders that thrive in an environment of autonomy, ownership, and individual responsibility to help us create the future for predictive modeling.

Location & work mode

Prediction Lab is a remote-first company that values deep focus and asynchronous collaboration, with intentional moments to connect in person through team off-sites and occasional travel.

About the role

We're seeking an Actuarial Engineer who is passionate about building a product that our users love. You'll work closely with the founder and users to design and implement new concepts and ideas.

You'll own the insurance-specific parts of the product, from the rating engine to filing support, and be responsible for delivering the best value to our users. Your decisions will shape the product and its future.

What you'll do

• Build and ship the insurance-specific parts of the product, from the rating engine to filing support, owning them from design to production
• Guide the product more broadly, connecting what we build to the work a pricing actuary does every day
• Own the correctness of what we put in front of actuaries, where the output gets rated, filed, and reviewed by regulators
• Shape the product and its future, to lead the new era of predictive modeling
• Elevate the team, by bringing your own ideas and expertise to the table
• Partner with the founder, to build a product that our users love

What we're looking for

• Experience working in an actuarial role, with real time spent on pricing
• Strong programming skills, whether that comes from analysis work, research code, or production systems
• Track record of building models or tooling that other actuaries relied on
• Familiarity with what it takes to get a rate filed, from the analysis through to the regulator
• Cares deeply about getting the numbers right, and about the people who have to defend them
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, startup environment
• High level of autonomy and ownership
• Thrives in a remote, asynchronous environment with a lean, high-output team
• Domain knowledge in predictive modeling and data science

You'll love this if

You want to build the tools you always wished you had. You are passionate about predictive modeling and hold high opinions about how pricing work should be done. You want to work with a world-class team that values your input and your ideas.

You'll hate this if

We work a lot and we work hard. We think through problems from first principles and are comfortable with ambiguity. We are not afraid to take the lead on complex problems & shape the solution, not just follow instructions.

Our tech

• Rust, Postgres, AWS on the backend
• Typescript and React on the frontend
• GraphQL API, with SDKs in several languages
• Claude Code / Codex
• Github, Linear, Slack

What we offer

We're a small, focused team that cares deeply about the quality of our work and the people we do it with. Here's what you can expect:

• Competitive salary and equity
• Full remote flexibility and asynchronous work culture
• 100% employer-paid health insurance, including dental and vision coverage
• Unlimited paid time off
• A high degree of ownership, autonomy, and the opportunity to help build a growing company
• The ability to make a meaningful impact while working alongside a passionate, high-performing team
• Exposure to the challenges and opportunities of a fast-paced startup environment
