As a Forward Deployed Actuarial Engineer, you sit at the intersection of our product and our customers. You will embed with design partners, translate messy real-world actuarial problems into product, and ship the workflows that get used in production. This is a high-ownership role for someone who wants to be close to both the customer and the code. You will work closely with our founders and former chief actuary.

## What they're looking for

- Work directly with actuaries and underwriters at specialty carriers to map their rating, reserving, and pricing workflows
- Build and customize models, data pipelines, and product features that solve those workflows
- Turn customer feedback into product direction alongside our founding team
- Own deployments end to end, from first conversation to production usage
