We9re searching for an experienced underwriter who thinks like a builder. Whether your background is on the carrier or agency side, you bring deep knowledge of program structure, risk selection, and what makes a book of business work - and you9re looking for a place to put that expertise to work on something you can truly own. You9re ambitious, self-directed, and motivated by outcomes, not just activity. At Authentic, you9ll be joining a program factory that has already launched several programs and is built to scale - with the autonomy to make real decisions and the infrastructure to grow what you build. This is not a maintenance role; it9s a ground-floor opportunity with proven momentum behind it.
What You9ll Do- You9ll lead the end-to-end launch of new insurance programs within our program factory - from defining underwriting guidelines and building rate/form/rule frameworks to securing and managing carrier relationships. You9ll own the performance of your book, tracking loss ratios and key metrics, and making real-time adjustments to appetite and pricing to keep programs healthy and growing. You9ll collaborate closely with our distribution, compliance, and operations teams to bring new programs to market quickly, and serve as the internal and external subject matter expert for the classes of business you underwrite.
