About hyperexponential (hx)

At hyperexponential, we’re building the AI-powered platform that enables the world’s most critical decisions in a $7 trillion industry: which risks to take, and how to price them. These are the decisions that shape real-world outcomes: whether rockets successfully launch into space, autonomous vehicles make it to market, or communities recover after major storms.

Until now, insurance has been making billion-dollar decisions using outdated tools. We’re changing that. Our platform brings together data, AI, and human expertise to give insurers the fastest path from submission to decision, helping them move faster, act smarter, and take on more risk with confidence.

Backed by a16z, Highland Europe, and Battery Ventures, we’re scaling globally, already trusted by nearly 50 of the world’s largest insurers, with zero churn and billions in premiums flowing through hx.

What began as a single product in one market has rapidly evolved into a multi-product, multi-territory platform powering every stage of pricing and underwriting. AI is at the core of what we do, from building the world’s first domain-specific AI peer programmer for insurance (think GitHub Copilot with a PhD in actuarial science) to shaping agentic workflows that reinvent how this industry operates.

What makes hx different is the people who build it. Here, impact isn’t tied to title or tenure; it’s defined by the challenges you take on and the discipline you bring. Surrounded by peers who stretch you, you’ll do the best, hardest work of your life in a company engineered to endure.

If that sounds like you, join us in building what comes next.

About the AI Team

The AI Team plays a central role in how hx builds and scales production-grade AI. We work across three tightly connected groups: Research (frontier ML), Agents (customer-facing AI products), and AI Platform (the services powering our agents). Our job is to bring clarity, coordination, and operational discipline to an area of the business where tight execution matters.

hx has already reached product market fit. Our AI agents are live with enterprise customers and generating real value, which means the focus is shifting from zero-to-one into the scale phase. This role sits at the heart of that transition, helping the team move faster, align better, and deliver consistently.

In this team, you’ll build the systems, processes, and communication rhythms that keep complex initiatives running smoothly across research and engineering. It is a unique opportunity to shape how a fast-growing AI organisation operates as it scales.

What you’ll be doing

• Help the AI organisation move from early wins to repeatable scale. Our agents are already in production, and you’ll support the shift from zero-to-one into a scale phase where disciplined execution is essential.

• Maintain clear, detailed communication systems so every contributor understands priorities, ownership, and next steps.

• Coordinate work across Research, Agents, and AI Platform teams, ensuring dependencies are surfaced early and progress stays tightly aligned.

• Design and embed operational frameworks that support both the research lifecycle and the software development lifecycle, giving teams a consistent rhythm for planning, experimentation, and delivery.

• Support the balance between exploration and exploitation by helping structure research paths, define success signals, and transition promising ideas into focused build efforts.

• Identify and mitigate operational risks early, keeping teams aligned with strategic goals and delivery timelines.

• Build the habits, processes, and rituals that create clarity, reduce ambiguity, and enable teams to deliver their highest-value work.

• Champion hx’s culture of ownership and excellence, helping create an environment where people can do the best work of their careers.

What you’ll need to have done

• Built structured operational systems and processes that improved clarity, communication, and execution quality across technical teams.

• Managed complex cross-team initiatives in an AI or engineering organisation, keeping contributors aligned and equipped to move at pace.

• Created documentation, communication systems, or team rituals that transformed how teams collaborate and share information.

• Taken ownership for coordinating multi-disciplinary teams, including organising people, managing dependencies, and maintaining operational cadence.

• Thrived in roles where precision, structure, and detail were essential, and found genuine satisfaction in keeping complex work organised.

• Played a central role in identifying and unblocking dependencies, ensuring teams stayed focused and delivery remained predictable.

You’re unlikely to thrive here if

• You prefer high-level thinking and find detailed operational work tiring or unimportant.

• You feel comfortable when processes remain loose or ambiguous as long as momentum is maintained.

• You dislike documentation, structure, or maintaining clear information systems.

• You prefer loosely defined roles or struggle in environments that expect precision, clarity, and constant organisation.

• You would rather shape vision than build the operational discipline that turns vision into reality.

If reading our Culture Document leaves you feeling neutral rather than energised, hx may not be the place where you’ll do your best work. We’re building something that asks for commitment and conviction, and we want you to feel excited by the opportunity to grow with us.

Compensation

Equity: We offer equity across all roles at hx, making it a significant component of total compensation. Your talent partner will be able to share more details about this.
