Adaptional, a YC S25 alum, is hiring founding AI engineers to accelerate its insurance‑focused platform. The startup tackles an industry still dominated by manual data entry, legacy software, and outsourced verification. By delivering a Claude‑code‑style interface, it aims to let insurance teams automate complex workflows with AI.

Founders previously built and exited a VC‑backed insurtech venture, then secured a $10 million seed round—one of the largest in the sector. They already partner with top‑10 insurers and have laid out a multi‑product roadmap that relies heavily on AI agents for underwriting, claims, and compliance.

The role expands beyond traditional coding; engineers will design full‑stack AI agents, embed regulatory logic, and build backends that scale under heavy agentic workloads. Candidates must show deep technical chops, a track record of solving hard problems, and a willingness to work side‑by‑side with customers in the Presidio office.

Compensation combines competitive cash with equity, reflecting the startup’s ambition to reshape insurance operations. By hiring engineers who can fuse AI with domain‑specific compliance, Adaptional hopes to replace decades‑old tooling with a modern, programmable interface. Success will hinge on delivering reliable, audit‑ready AI outputs to regulated clients.
