## Job description

## ABOUT US

At FurtherAI, we're building the AI agents that run insurance - a trillion-dollar industry still powered by manual work. By combining frontier agentic AI with deep domain expertise, we're reshaping how the industry's most critical work gets done.

We've raised more than $30M from top investors (Andreessen Horowitz, YC, Nexus, South Park Commons, Converge), grown more than 10x in the last 12 months, and work with some of the largest names in insurance - top 10 carriers/brokers, F100 & public companies.

We are a deeply technical company. Both founders are engineers, and engineers have an outsized say on product direction.

Now, we're looking for our first product hire - a Founding Product Manager to own product alongside the founders, define what we build, and build the product function from the ground up.

## WHY JOIN US

- Outsized ambition: We're out to build the definitive AI company for insurance - and we're moving faster than anyone in the space.
- Own the product function: You're our first PM. You'll set how we scope, decide, and ship - and grow the team beneath you as we scale.
- Elite team: Founders and engineers from the best companies and schools in the world - ex-Apple AI Research, Brex, Coinbase, and Uber; 4 YC founders and 6 ex-founders; grads of Stanford, Berkeley, IITs, and Cornell.
- Massive market impact: Insurance is the backbone of global commerce. Our work reshapes how the industry operates.

## WHAT YOU'LL DO

- Be our first product hire. Define what product means at FurtherAI: how we scope, decide, and ship - and grow the team beneath you as we scale.
- Own product direction with the founders. Shape where the product goes, then turn that vision into a plan the team can build - from the first insight to the shipped feature and everything after.
- Define the future of AI in insurance. Decide how our agents behave - what they automate, which tools they use, where a human stays in the loop - for the workflows that run a trillion-dollar industry.
- Go deep on how insurance actually works. Sit with brokers, underwriters, and carriers, find the real pain, and turn messy real-world workflows into product that feels obvious.
- Keep us building the right thing, fast. Make sure the team always has high-impact, well-scoped work ahead of it, and define what "great" looks like before we build it.
- Set the bar for quality and taste across everything we ship.

## REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS

- The Universal Assistant. One place an insurance professional can ask for anything - "pull this broker's loss history, check it against our guidelines, draft the quote" - and watch an agent read the documents, pull from their systems, and do it end to end. You'll define what it can do and how people come to trust it.
- Let anyone build an agent. Today, building an automation takes an engineer. You'll shape the product that lets an underwriter describe what they want in plain English and get back a working, reliable agent - the shift that turns FurtherAI from a tool into a platform.
- Agents that work a case for days. An agent that emails a broker for a missing document, waits, follows up by phone, and picks the case back up when the reply lands. You'll invent what it means to hand a multi-day, multi-channel job to an agent - and supervise it like a teammate.
- Agents that get better on their own. Workflows that learn from every run, catch where they went wrong, and improve without an engineer touching them. You'll define what "self-improving" means in a product people bet real money on.

## WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

- 5+ years in product, much of it at early-stage / high-growth companies where you steered direction.
- A track record shipping products that transform real professional workflows in complex domains.
- Technical enough to earn engineers' trust - you reason fluently about agents and LLMs, prototype your ideas, and genuinely appreciate engineering tradeoffs. (You don't need to have shipped production code, but you're never hand-wavy.)
- Deep intuition for LLMs and real excitement for turning AI capability into product people trust.
- Strong discovery instincts - you tell stated needs from actual requirements, and define problems amid ambiguity without complete information.
- Excellent written communication - you distill complexity into crisp, buildable specs.
- Builder mentality - outcomes over process, high ownership. You're accountable for what ships, not just what you hand off.

## NICE TO HAVE

- Insurance, reinsurance, or financial services background.
- Built a product from 0→1 and stood up the processes around it.
- Experience with integration-first products embedded inside customers' existing tools.
- Comfort running your own quantitative analyses.

At FurtherAI, we set a high bar. We're not looking for someone who just wants a job - we're looking for someone who wants to build something transformative and own a big piece of it. If you thrive where the pace is fast, expectations are high, and the rewards are outsized, you'll love it here.

## BENEFITS

- Fully covered, best-in-class health, dental, and vision
- Competitive compensation, meaningful stock options, company 401(k)
- Unlimited PTO
- Outstanding in-office culture in the heart of San Francisco
- Lunch and dinner onsite
- Team events - happy hours and off-sites
- Pre-tax commuter benefits

## Competitive Advantages
- **Domain-Specific AI**: Purpose-built for commercial insurance, not a general-purpose LLM. This allows it to handle complex, industry-specific documents (ACORD forms, loss runs, SOVs) with high accuracy (95% data accuracy reported). [furtherai.com](https://www.furtherai.com/)
- **Proven ROI**: Customers report 30x faster quote readiness, 646% ROI, and 45% reduction in audit time. [furtherai.com](https://www.furtherai.com/)

- **Deep Integrations**: Triggers flows based on email or messages, and can make phone calls, creating a seamless end-to-end automation layer.

## Strategic Focus
- **Current priorities**: Scaling the AI workforce across more insurance workflows (submissions, audits, claims, policy comparisons) and expanding the customer base among top-tier insurers, MGAs, and brokers. The company is focused on replacing manual, repetitive tasks with AI to help insurance professionals focus on higher-judgment work.
- **Direction for growth**: Deepening its foothold in the commercial insurance market, which faces increasing submission volumes, tighter margins, and a shrinking underwriting workforce. FurtherAI aims to be the standard AI layer for the entire insurance industry.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture highlights**: Mission-driven focus on freeing humans from busywork. The company emphasizes "human expertise and machine speed working together with trust and precision." [furtherai.com](https://www.furtherai.com/company)
- **Remote/hybrid/office policy**: The company is based in San Francisco, CA, but offers remote roles (e.g., Sales Development Representative is listed as remote). Engineering roles may be hybrid or in-office depending on location (e.g., a Backend/Fullstack role is listed for India). [ycombinator.com](https://www.ycombinator.com/companies/furtherai)
- **Notable perks or engineering culture**: Backed by top-tier VCs (Andreessen Horowitz, Y Combinator) with a strong founding team (ex-Apple AI scientist, ex-Microsoft PM, ex-YC founder). The engineering culture is likely strong given the technical pedigree of the founders (former language modeling scientist at Apple, former Microsoft PM). The company is at an early growth stage (Series A, 36 employees), offering significant ownership and impact.
