$170,000.00/yr - $260,000.00/yr
About Stand Stand is a new technology and insurance company revolutionizing how society assesses, mitigates, and adapts to climate risks. Our leadership team has extensive experience in insurance, technology, and climate science: building billions in market value at prior ventures. At Stand, we are rethinking how insurance enables proactive, science-driven resilience.
Existing insurance models often rely on broad exclusions, leaving homeowners without options. At Stand, we leverage advanced deterministic models and cutting‑edge analytics to provide personalized risk assessments—helping homeowners secure coverage and take proactive steps toward resilience.
This is an on‑site role. Ideally, we have someone located in Seattle or willing to relocate to Seattle. An alternative option is to have someone on‑site in our SF HQ office.
Role Summary As a Senior Actuary at Stand Insurance, you will lead the development of advanced pricing models & tools that account for emerging climate risks. You’ll partner closely with Underwriting, Data Science, and Leadership to develop actuarially sound models, ensure regulatory compliance, and drive sustainable growth. This is a hands‑on role in a fast‑scaling Series B insurance company, ideal for someone eager to combine actuarial rigor with innovative approaches to climate resilience.

Collaborate with cross‑functional teams to evaluate new product opportunities and market expansions
Monitor emerging climate, catastrophe, and market trends to proactively adjust assumptions and models
Present actuarial analyses and recommendations to leadership, the board, and external stakeholders

Demonstrated ability to translate complex analyses into actionable business insights
Comfort working cross‑functionally in a fast‑paced, entrepreneurial environment
