About FurtherAI
FurtherAI is building the AI agents that run insurance, a trillion-dollar industry still powered by manual work. Its domain-specific AI Workspace automates workflows like submission intake, policy comparisons and underwriting audits, and supports customers writing over $15B in premiums across all 50 states. Founded in 2024, FurtherAI has raised $30M from investors including Andreessen Horowitz, Y Combinator, Nexus and South Park Commons, and works with top 10 carriers/brokers and F100 and public companies. Both founders are engineers, and engineers have an outsized say on product direction.
The role
Join the agent team as a Staff AI Engineer and shape both the product and how FurtherAI builds agents.

- Build lightweight tools, servers and orchestration layers (e.g. MCP servers) that let agents run reliably in production.
- Stay on top of emerging research on LLMs/agents and bring ideas into production experiments.
Representative projects
- Eval harnesses that measure and lift agent accuracy on real insurance work
- Orchestration and tools (e.g. MCP servers) that keep agents reliable in production
- Multi-agent systems and reasoning-from-feedback loops
- Long-running agents that read documents, pull from connected systems, and take actions end to end
Benefits
- Fully covered health, dental and vision benefits
- Competitive compensation, meaningful stock options, company 401(k)
- Unlimited PTO
- In-office culture in San Francisco, lunch and dinner onsite
- Team events such as happy hours and off-sites
- Pre-tax commuter benefits
- 8+ years building in ML/AI at a high-growth top tech company
- Strong experience with Python
- Amazing ability to speak with LLMs (Occam's razor in prompting)
- Clear communicator, both in person and in writing
- Bonus: background in B2B SaaS and 0-1 experience
- Above all: drive, grit and ownership
