Job description

Title: General Interest — Adaptive

Company: Adaptive Insurance Location: Austin (Bee Cave), TX Job Type: Full time

About Adaptive

We are pioneering climate resilience by harnessing AI, data, technology, and insurance to help our customers analyze, act, and adapt to emerging risks. We’re starting with specialty insurance solutions like GridProtect, our parametric power outage coverage for short-duration outages, and Deductible Buy-Back, supplemental coverage for commercial and residential clients with high exposure to wind and hail deductible risk.

About The Role

We’re a small team just outside Austin, and we only want to work with high-caliber talent. This Generalist role isn’t tied to one function. If you’re a builder — someone who figures things out, takes ownership, and doesn’t need a defined lane to make an impact — we want to hear from you, regardless of your background or function.

Why Join Now

  • A real problem to solve: climate volatility is outpacing what traditional insurance can cover, leaving businesses exposed to outages, wind, and hail losses they can’t absorb.
  • We’re closing new funding to scale the fix, and we’re just getting started.
  • Real ownership: early enough that you’ll help shape how the company works, not just execute an existing playbook.
  • High-caliber team: small, high-trust, with equity that reflects the level of ownership you’ll take on.

Why work at Montauk Capital

  • Culture: Hands‑on, founder‑focused environment where team members work directly with experienced operators and investors. Described as a “trustworthy springboard” for building durable companies.
  • Remote / hybrid / office: Offers remote, hybrid, and in‑office roles; the HQ is in New York City (66 Hudson Boulevard).
  • Notable perks / engineering culture: Opportunities to become a co‑founder or early executive at a stealth venture backed by deep industry expertise. Strong emphasis on technical depth (AI, infrastructure, energy systems) and ownership.
  • Growth trajectory: Small, growing team (14 employees) with clear expansion plans — allows for outsized impact and career development.
