Description
Overview Mercor is partnering with leading AI labs to advance frontier agent evaluations in insurance underwriting. As an Underwriting Expert, you'll build long-horizon underwriting tasks that mirror the work you already do, each paired with a deterministic rubric that grades agent performance against verifiable ground truth. Tasks need to have checkable answers; no open-ended essays, no subjective judgment calls. This role involves building scenarios across several areas described below.
Responsibilities Submission and triage: submission intake against appetite rules, risk classification, referral memos to senior underwriting against defined thresholds
Risk assessment and pricing: exposure analysis with ground-truth calculations, quote preparation against rating manuals, surplus lines processing against state rules
Issuance and brokerage: bind and issue prep with required documents, broker correspondence against playbook positions
These scenarios will be challenging and take long sessions of focus.
Qualifications 3+ years in commercial, specialty, or personal lines underwriting at a carrier, MGA, or wholesale broker
Expertise in one or more of the following: a specific line of business (property, GL, professional, workers compensation, cyber, specialty), rating and pricing manuals, surplus lines and E&S processing, broker relationship management, an underwriting platform (Duck Creek, Guidewire, or carrier systems)
Comfortable reading and producing underwriting artifacts: submission packages, risk reports, quote letters, referral memos, bind documentation
Clear written communication; can articulate reasoning step by step and encode it into deterministic rubrics
Located in the United States
Compensation Compensation: $70–$95 per hour, depending on domain depth and prior experience. Strong contributors are promoted based on task quality and throughput.
