About the job
Who are we?
At Ki Insurance, we are at the forefront of innovation in the insurance industry. We're not just insuring everyday things; we're insuring space shuttles, global tours, wind farms, and even the legs of footballers!
Our mission is clear: to digitally disrupt and revolutionize a market that has been around for 335 years. In collaboration with Google and UCL, we've developed a platform that leverages algorithms, machine learning, and large language models, allowing insurance brokers to receive quotes in seconds instead of days.
Ki proudly stands as the largest global algorithmic insurance carrier and has rapidly become the fastest-growing syndicate in the Lloyd's of London market, achieving an impressive $100 million in profit within just three years.
Our teams come from diverse backgrounds and collaborate in an agile, cross-functional manner to create the best customer experience possible. With ambitious goals ahead, we’re looking for brilliant minds to challenge the status quo and help us reach new heights.
