- You enjoy building bridges between teams such as claims, engineering and sales
- You are able to switch context quickly between different high-impact initiatives

What the role entails:

- You will own special projects and strategic initiatives, working directly with the CEO
- Build and formalize claims operations as we scale rapidly (process, hiring, workflows)

- Lead cross-functional problem solving across product, engineering, and business teams

## About Strala Group, Inc.

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Strala is an AI-native end-to-end third-party claims administrator (TPA) that combines artificial intelligence with seasoned claims professionals to deliver optimal outcomes for insurers, captives, and MGAs.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Pre-Seed Stage)
- **Headquarters**: San Francisco, California, United States
- **Founded**: Not publicly available
- **Founders**: Timon Gregg (CEO) and Armando Schmid (CTO)

## Core Business
- Primary industry: Insurance Technology (InsurTech) / Financial Services
- Target customers: B2B — large insurers, captives, self-insured entities, and Managing General Agents (MGAs), with deep knowledge in auto, property, and general liability.
- Mission or purpose statement: "Deliver optimal claims outcomes" by combining AI-native technology with seasoned claims professionals, acting as an integrated claims partner rather than a software vendor.

## Products & Services
- **End-to-End TPA Platform**: A fully auditable, AI-powered system that handles the entire claims lifecycle from first notice of loss (FNOL) to resolution and subrogation. Includes AI FNOL intake, coverage verification, claims file set-up and triage, estimating, claims adjustment, resolution, subrogation and recovery, and QA/oversight.
- **Subrogation & Recovery**: A proprietary subrogation model that identifies and pursues accounts with the highest chance of recovery at scale.
- **Fraud Detection**: Real-time fraud detection and prevention integrated into the claims workflow.
- **Real-Time Data Dashboard**: Provides carriers with live data visibility to set accurate reserves and predict future exposure.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed
- **Key Metric**: Raised a Pre-Seed round on 2025-03-25 from 1 investor (investor name not publicly disclosed).
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Backed by "one of the best investors in the world" per the company's Built In profile; specific investor name not listed in public sources.
- **Growth Signals**: Headcount grew 442.9% year-over-year (currently 22 employees); 7 active job postings; monthly job posting growth of +75.0%; expanding presence in Germany and Canada.

## Competitive Advantages
- **AI-Native TPA Model**: Unlike traditional TPAs that bolt on technology, Strala is built from the ground up as an AI-native platform, giving it a data advantage that gets smarter with every claim.
- **Deep Domain Expertise**: Leadership team includes seasoned claims professionals from carriers like Progressive and Travelers, combined with technologists from Palantir, DRW, Optiver, and top AI labs at Oxford, Berkeley, and Cambridge.
- **Outcome-Based Partnership**: Positions itself as an integrated partner that "only wins when you do" — aligning incentives with clients rather than selling software.
- **Full Visibility & Auditability**: Provides carriers complete transparency into every decision made during the claims process, a key trust factor in a regulated industry.

## Strategic Focus
- Scaling the team and technology to handle more claims volume across auto, property, and general liability.
- Expanding geographic presence (already in US, Germany, and Canada).
- Deepening AI capabilities to further reduce cycle times, improve loss ratios, and strengthen underwriting and actuarial decisions for clients.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Described as outcome-driven with a focus on solving hard problems in a legacy industry. The team brings together "seasoned claims professionals, technologists, and researchers" who are building something the industry has never had.
- **Work Policy**: In-office required. Offices located in San Francisco, CA (HQ) and New York, NY.
- **Notable Perks/Engineering Culture**: Opportunity to work at the intersection of AI and insurance with a team from top-tier tech firms and AI labs. Fast-growing startup environment (442% headcount growth YoY) with high autonomy and impact.
- **Talent Sources**: Employees come from Amazon, Pear VC, Optiver, Entrepreneurs First, Xceedance, and others — indicating a blend of tech and insurance talent.
