About the Role

We are hiring a Member of the Technical Staff - Product Engineer with engineering excellence. You will own critical systems across the insurance lifecycle, from core workflows to new products like wildfire preparedness inspections. This is a high-leverage role with broad surface area and real influence over product direction.

Responsibilities

• Own critical systems across the insurance lifecycle, from core workflows (policy, underwriting, claims, payments) to entirely new products like wildfire preparedness inspections, risk monitoring, and customer-facing mitigation tools.
• Translate complex domain problems into shippable systems.
• Decide what to build, not just how to build it.
• Productize models, pipelines, and tools that directly impact risk, revenue, and customer behavior.
• Take responsibility for entire problem spaces - architecture, quality, reliability, and long-term evolution.
• Partner with stakeholders to shape scope, define success metrics, and make informed tradeoffs under uncertainty.
• Move between zero-to-one builds and hardening existing systems, knowing when speed matters and when rigor matters more.
• Use modern tools, including LLMs and agents, to increase team velocity and reduce operational drag.
• Explain decisions, surface risks early, and create shared understanding across technical and non-technical partners.

Requirements

• Proven experience owning and shipping production systems using a modern programming language (Python, Ruby, Rust, etc.).
• Experience deploying, operating, and monitoring applications on modern PaaS or cloud platforms (Heroku, Vercel, Railway, etc.).
• Track record of end-to-end project ownership, including direct work with stakeholders and end users.
• Comfort learning new tools, frameworks, and domains quickly.
• Practical experience using LLMs to improve engineering workflows, system design, or developer productivity.
• Genuine interest in Stand’s mission and the real-world impact of the work.
• Experience in regulated or risk-sensitive industries (insurance, fintech, health, climate, infra).
• Experience operating in early-stage or scaling startups.
• A pragmatic agile mindset focused on outcomes over ceremony.
• Candidates must be authorized to work in the U.S.
• We can consider candidates on TN visas, O-1A visas, or H-1B transfers with three years or more remaining.

About the Company

• At Stand, you’ll help build a new class of global property protection.
• We use advanced physics and AI to model catastrophic risk at the asset level, then automate underwriting and mitigation before loss occurs.
• Insurance is simply the current delivery mechanism. The real product is a scalable risk engine, our Stand World Model.
• We stay when traditional insurers exit. We model what others approximate. And we build systems that change outcomes, not just prices.
• Our leadership team includes former successful founders and CEOs from Metromile, PolicyGenius, WePay, and HotelTonight, bringing deep experience in building and scaling high-growth companies.
• The property insurance industry is built to price loss after it happens. It relies on coarse proxies, backward-looking data, and manual processes, then accepts damage as unavoidable.
• Stand takes a different approach. We simulate how real-world catastrophes affect individual properties, translate that into actionable decisions, and automate the business around it.
• The result is a platform that can underwrite what others can’t and operate with far less friction.
• A home’s survival in a wildfire or flood depends on its materials, geometry, topography, and defensible space. Traditional insurance models flatten that complexity, offering little insight to homeowners and few incentives for mitigation.
• Stand combines deterministic catastrophe models with modern AI to compute property-level risk and embed it directly into underwriting, pricing, and mitigation workflows.
• Instead of obscuring risk behind averages, we make it measurable and actionable - giving insurers sharper pricing signals and homeowners clear insight and incentives to mitigate.
• We build production software that connects scientific modeling to real-world insurance operations, turning physics into decisions.

Equal Opportunity

• Stand is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate on the basis of protected veteran status, disability, or other legally protected status.
• We believe that diversity enriches the workplace, and we are committed to growing our team with the most talented and passionate people from every community.
• We are committed to providing reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals.
• Pursuant to the San Francisco Fair Chance Ordinance, we will consider for employment qualified applicants with arrest and conviction records.
