AI Underwriter

The Role

As an Underwriter on our AI Team, you'll sit at the intersection of deep insurance expertise and next-generation technology. You'll be a critical voice in researching, developing, validating, and monitoring AI-driven risk assessment models — helping ensure they reflect real-world underwriting judgment and produce accurate, defensible outcomes.

You'll have the opportunity to contribute to some of Honeycomb's most exciting technical initiatives, including:

• Computer Vision — helping evaluate and validate AI systems that analyze property imagery for risk assessment purposes.
• Generative AI — informing the development of AI-powered tools that assist in quote generation, risk narratives, and underwriting workflows.
• Predictive Modeling — contributing your underwriting expertise to proprietary risk models, helping drive more accurate and data-driven outcomes across our book of business.

What You’ll Do

• Partner closely with AI researchers and engineers throughout the full model lifecycle — from early research and development through post-production monitoring. Translate complex underwriting guidelines into clear, consistent property assessments that inform and improve AI models.
• Conduct in-depth property reviews to identify gaps or weaknesses in current AI models and recommend improvements.
• Supervise labeling teams to ensure accurate property classification in production models.
• Provide training and ongoing guidance to annotation teams; perform continuous quality assurance on annotation projects.
• Assist in the discovery and evaluation of new and revised AI models, contributing underwriting subject matter expertise.
• Maintain open, proactive communication across underwriting and AI teams. Take on special projects and assignments as the team's needs evolve.
