Job Description

The "AI Intuition" Factor

• We care less about your years of experience and more about your intuition for the non-deterministic. You understand that:

• Context is King: The difference between a "hallucination" and a "breakthrough" is often just how you architect the context.

• The UX of AI is Different: Traditional UI is about constraints; AI UI is about guidance. You know how to build interfaces that build trust.

• Prototyping is Research: You’d rather get out a vibe-checked prototype in two days to get user feedback than spend two months over-engineering a pipeline that nobody wants.

What You’ll Do

• Design Agentic Workflows: Partner with PMs to decompose complex insurance tasks (like subrogation or underwriting) into multi-agent systems using agent frameworks.

• Rapid Prototyping: Build the "Version 0" of AI features. You will be the first person to turn a PM’s "What if..." into a working demo that feels like the future.

• Own the "Eval" Loop: You won't just write code; you’ll define what "good" looks like. You’ll build the evaluation frameworks to measure accuracy, tone, and reliability across thousands of insurance scenarios.

• RAG/graph Architecture: Implement sophisticated Retrieval-Augmented Generation and graphs that can navigate the labyrinth of Guidewire’s multi-tenant data structures.

• Bridge the Gap: Act as the technical translator between the "Art of the Possible" (Frontier AI) and the "Reality of the Regulated" (P&C Insurance).

Your Toolkit

• The AI Stack: Deep experience with OpenAI/Anthropic APIs, vector databases, and orchestration layers.

• The Core Stack: You are a polyglot who can move between Python (for the AI/ML heavy lifting) and TypeScript/Java (to integrate with the Guidewire platform).

• The Product Mindset: You’ve likely built your own side projects or worked at an early-stage AI startup. You understand user friction and how to solve it with LLMs.

• Problem Solving: You don’t wait for a spec. You see a manual, "boring" insurance process and immediately start mapping out the agents needed to automate it.

• Experience with Voice agents a plus
