Job description

United Risk is a global property and casualty insurance underwriting and distribution platform. It is independently owned and operated by its practice partners and affiliated with Applied Underwriters. Our practices cover specialty casualty and property, surety, financial lines, aviation, crisis and political risk, marine, fine art and more. Each one is led by underwriters who run their specialty with real autonomy.

Our AI team builds the tools that make those underwriters quicker and smarter. That includes submission ingestion, underwriting workbenches, risk analysis, and automation across the back and middle office. Our focus is to deliver tailored solutions to improve efficiency, while also maintaining our standards to security and compliance.

The Role:

You'll be one of a small group of AI Engineers. You'll work directly with underwriters and operations staff. You'll adapt the products we already run to their needs, and build new ones where nothing fits.

This role leans toward application development: designing and shipping the AI-powered apps and workflows people use every day. Everyone on the team also works on data and infrastructure. Three senior AI engineers review your work and teach you along the way.

United Risk is independently owned and operated by its practice partners and is affiliated with Applied Underwriters through its common and powerful brand identity.
