_Founding executive · San Francisco or Remote (USA-based) · Full-time_
**Klaimee** is building liability coverage for the mistakes and failures of AI agents. We are a Y Combinator company backed by Bermuda-based A rated insurance partners, which powers our first product: a warranty for AI agent failures. We have just closed a $5.5M seed round to scale and domainate the AI liability insurance market?\
As we scale, we will grow into more carrier appointments and program partnerships.
## **The mission**
Own Klaimee’s legal and insurance strategy as we scale from a reinsurance-backed warranty into a carrier-appointed program. You will be the face of Klaimee to reinsurers, carriers, and regulators — a founding executive, not a support function.
## **What you’ll own**
* **Carrier & reinsurer relationships.** Manage and grow our reinsurance partnership; originate and negotiate future capacity, fronting, and program arrangements; represent Klaimee as a principal in the market.
* **Regulatory strategy & product classification.** Own our warranty-vs-insurance positioning across jurisdictions and keep our product structure defensible as we enter new markets and product lines.
* **Licensing & compliance roadmap.** Chart the path to the authorizations we’ll need as we grow.
* **Outside counsel & contractors.** Hire and manage specialist counsel for regulatory filings and jurisdiction-specific work; own the legal budget. Build the in-house team when the time is right.
## **What success looks like in 12 months**
* Klaimee has a defensible, documented regulatory position in our core markets.
* Our capacity agreement is renewed and expanded, with at least one additional carrier or reinsurer relationship in progress.
* Founders no longer sit in first position on any carrier, regulatory, or legal conversation.
## **Who you are**
* 6-12 years in insurance - as an insurance regulatory lawyer (law firm insurance practice or in-house at an MGA, carrier, or insurtech) or a senior insurance executive with a legal background.
* You’ve worked directly with carriers and reinsurers and can negotiate capacity, binding authority, or program agreements yourself.
* Comfortable being the sole legal and insurance voice in an early-stage company: pragmatic, commercial, and fast.
**Bonus points:** Lloyd’s market or coverholder experience · parametric or warranty/service-contract structures · Bermuda market familiarity · you’ve been through the “startup gets appointed by real carriers” journey at an insurtech.
## **What we offer**
Competitive salary and meaningful equity, reflecting a foundational executive hire -discussed openly in our first conversation. A seat at the table on company strategy from day one, and the chance to define how an entirely new category of coverage gets built.
