Why This Matters

Adaptional's focus on leveraging AI to revolutionize the insurance industry highlights the growing importance of AI-driven solutions in transforming traditional sectors. Their innovative platform aims to reduce manual work, improve accuracy, and streamline processes, offering significant benefits to both industry players and consumers. This development underscores the increasing demand for specialized AI talent and the evolving role of engineers in building impactful, regulated AI applications.

Key Takeaways

Adaptional is building AI for insurance. Insurance is one of the largest industries globally, and still manages huge amounts of work with manual data entry, outsourced teams, human error-checking, and 20-year-old software. We are building a platform that delivers the claude-code experience for insurance teams.

Adaptional’s founders previously built and exited a VC-backed insurance startup and raised a $10m seed round, one of the largest insurtech seeds to date. We are working with top-10 insurance companies and are building a multi-product roadmap rapidly.

As a founding engineer you will build the company at the earliest stage, both technically and culturally. The role of an engineer is evolving from writing code to being full-stack problem solvers (and using lots of AI agents to do it), and we are looking for AI-pilled engineers with strong technical foundations who are excited by this. You’ll build the core product, work directly with our customers, and do whatever it takes to make our customers successful.

We work together in-person at an office in the Presidio, San Francisco.

What you’ll do:

Build new AI agents and features from scratch

Obsess over evals and correctness in highly specialized domains

Iterate on design and human-agent interaction patterns

Embed regulatory and legal compliance into AI tasks

Build backends that can support fast-scaling agentic workloads
