You make one call, we make the rest. Harper learns your business, works every market that can write it, and brings back the right coverage at the right price. Backed by Peak XV, Y Combinator and Antler.
About the role
Harper has shown it can take a small-business owner and turn them into a covered customer — at scale, with AI doing a ton of the work behind the human who closes. That motion works. This role takes it into territory we haven't entered yet.
What they're looking for
- You're a few years into your career and have already shown you can own ambiguous, high-stakes work and figure it out — at a startup, in a GTM or operating role, in consulting or banking, or by building something yourself
- You've helped take something from an early idea to real traction — a product, a market, a feature, a business line — and you want a bigger swing of your own next

- You can get people who don't report to you pulling in the same direction
- You're curious about the world and quick to form a view on where things are heading

Almost no one joins Harper for insurance ; they join to build the company that replaces how it works.

A "vertical" is a new kind of business for Harper to insure. Sometimes it's something we already touch and have started to see early signals in. More often it's somewhere we don't operate yet and want to explore. The world keeps creating new ones — a trend shows up in the news, a new kind of company starts scaling, an industry shifts or appears that didn't exist a few years ago — and someone...
