About With Coverage:
With Coverage replaces the traditional insurance brokerage with AI-supercharged risk management designed for the modern economy.
We partner with hundreds of high-growth, category-defining companies, including GoPuff, Eight Sleep, Bombas, Chomps, and Blank Street Coffee. Our clients span iconic consumer brands, hospitality leaders, GCs, advanced manufacturers, and next-generation defense contractors. They operate in complex risk environments and need a partner that can move at their speed.
Instead of a fragmented, manual brokerage stack, we have built a new category: elite risk advisors operating on top of proprietary technology. Our in-house Agency Management System gives our team and AI agents full visibility into policies, exposures, claims, billing, and commissions. This platform enables deep automation, better decisions, and a fundamentally higher standard of service.
With Coverage was founded by JD Ross (co-founder of Opendoor) and Max Brenner (Bain, Compound). We have raised over $43M from leading investors including Sequoia, 8VC, Khosla Ventures and Crystal Venture Partners. We grew more than 10x last year while cash-flow positive, and we are very early in the opportunity.
Our ambition is not to build a better brokerage. It is to redefine how risk is managed across the economy.
Why Join Us:
- Grow Faster - We're scaling quickly, giving you significant opportunities to learn, lead, and shape your career and the company's future.
- Work That Matters - We protect the world's most innovative brands: consumer icons, hospitality leaders, next-gen defense contractors, and US manufacturers.
- Redefine an Industry - Insurance is one of the largest, slowest-moving markets. We rewrite the playbook with proprietary technology, automation, and AI.
- Financial Rewards - We hire the best and invest in you. That means competitive comp, meaningful equity, and excellent benefits. We believe strongly in internal promotion and lay out a plan for everyone's career growth.

- Lead client-facing Risk Analyses with senior executives, diagnosing coverage gaps and presenting tailored insurance solutions.

- Collaborate closely with the Growth, Product, and Ops teams to ensure seamless execution and a differentiated client experience.
- Translate client needs into actionable insights for underwriting, operations, and product improvements.
- Track and report key client metrics to identify opportunities for expansion, efficiency, and impact.
- Contribute to the culture of excellence, curiosity, and accountability that defines our team.
- 4-7 years into your career, ideally with experience in commercial insurance, risk management, or client advisory roles.
- Confident leading high-stakes client conversations and comfortable presenting analyses or proposals.
- Deeply curious about how businesses operate and motivated to become a trusted advisor to their leaders.
- Strong communicator who thrives in fast-moving, collaborative environments.
- Highly detail-oriented and accountable - you own outcomes, not just tasks.
