Artificial Intelligence Underwriting Company

Our mission is to underwrite superintelligence. We eval, certify and insure AI agents. 

Capitalism’s answer to risks from new technology - be it electricity, cars, nuclear energy - has been a combination of insurance, standards and audits. We think of it as confidence infrastructure. We’re building that for AI, the most transformative technology of them all. Today, we help high-growth AI agent companies like Cognition and Ada earn the confidence of their customers. Over time, we will do the same for foundation models and data centers.

Our team has experience from Anthropic, McKinsey, METR and as Thiel Fellows. We’ve raised $15m led by Nat Friedman, Emergence & Terrain and folks like Anthropic co-founder, ex-CISOs at Google Cloud & MongoDB.

Role

As our founding biz ops lead, you will work across everything we do. You will shape our core product decisions, our go to market approach, our company culture.

Your core challenge is to drive adoption of AIUC-1: the standard and evals are only valuable if they are applied in the real world. This means we need to make the certification process seamless for AI vendors, and build a consortium of enterprise leaders to capture their feedback and ensure we are addressing their needs. 

The world is rapidly deploying agents that can execute long-horizon tasks into high-stakes deployments like hospitals, banks, governments - and soon there will be more agent-to-agent interactions than human-to-human interactions. Our work only finishes when our customers have built systems of security, safety, reliability that means their agents meet AIUC-1, our gold standard.

In addition, you will be responsible for owning high-priority projects to build AIUC - likely to include creating partnerships with other companies, incorporating AIUC-1 feedback from technical experts, designing our AIUC-1 output, and building out AIUC’s functions like recruiting and finance. 

What we’re looking for

We're looking for someone who can bridge the gap between AI research and enterprise adoption realities. You should be the type of person who can earn trust with both AI builders and Fortune 500 CISOs—understanding what each group cares about and translating between them.

You'll need to have:

• Directly influenced decisions at large enterprises and built meaningful relationships 

• Led complex, cross-functional initiatives where the stakes were high and the path was unclear

• Communicated complex technical concepts with clarity

• Delivered results in environments where you had to build the playbook while executing it

• Owned delivery of specific targets (e.g., sales or marketing metrics) 

One profile that would be a good fit would have demonstrated exceptional performance at a top consulting firm (MBB) and then owned meaningful business outcomes at a high-growth startup. The best candidates will have intuition about what actually drives enterprise AI adoption decisions and we might evolve AIUC-1 to meet these needs.

In addition to hard work and speed, we value open-heartedness.
