Accelerant was founded in 2018 by a group of longtime insurance industry executives and technology experts who shared a vision of rebuilding the way risk is exchanged - so that it works better, for everyone. The Accelerant risk exchange does business across more than 20 different countries and 250 specialty products, and we are proud that our insurers have been awarded an AM Best A- (Excellent) rating. For more information, please visit www.accelerant.ai.\nHelp build the future of Accelerant and MGAs\nAccelerant is building a fundamentally new way for MGAs to operate.

The Agentic MGA Forward Deployed Underwriter will turn that vision into reality by redefining each program’s underwriting approach for the agentic era from idea to production.\nYou will work with MGA executives, insurance experts, and a cross-functional project team to define requirements, guide delivery, and get programs live. This is a high-ownership opportunity to shape Accelerant’s future and establish how agentic AI comes to life inside an MGA.\nWhat you will do\nOwn each Agentic MGA program end-to-end, from underwriting and product design through launch, and stay accountable for what goes live\nDrive program enhancement and simplification by digging into underwriting questions, forms, rates, rules, appetite, and eligibility to translate underwriting judgment into clear requirements and decisions\nLead senior conversations with MGA underwriting and product leaders\nPartner with forward deployed engineers and the MGA to encode coverages, rating logic, rules, and workflows into an agentic underwriting system\nOwn UAT: readiness criteria, issue triage, rule/form/rate validation, stakeholder sign-off, and training so MGA underwriters can run the product and system with confidence\nMaintain a relentless bias for execution and measurable Member value in risk selection and launch outcomes\nWhat success looks like\nAgentic MGA programs launch with underwriting integrity intact so questions, forms, rates, and rules reflect how risk should be selected\nMember MGAs adopt the new underwriting and risk selection model with confidence,\nPrograms get simpler and sharper over time: rules, rates, and forms improve from implementation, portfolio, and loss experience, not only from process tweaks\nEach launch raises the bar for the next with clearer appetite, fewer weak rules, faster path from UW judgment to a working agentic system\nWhat you will bring\n8 to 12 years of relevant P&C insurance and technology experience\nA track record leading complex, cross-functional implementation, or transformation programs\nCredibility with insurance professionals and confidence leading senior client conversations\nTechnical fluency and experience partnering closely with underwriting and engineering teams\nExceptional prioritization, structured problem solving, follow-through, and bias for execution\nComfort with ambiguity and a willingness to unblock yourself and your team\nBachelor’s degree required\nWhy this role matters\nThe Agentic MGA Forward Deployed Underwriter will help prove what is possible when insurance expertise, technology, and agentic AI come together. Your work will shape how Accelerant grows, how our Member MGAs operate, and how the insurance industry evolves.\n#LI-DNI","description_format":"text","description_chars":3528,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":8,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":[],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-24T21:54:52Z"}],"liveness":{"score":60,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.602,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":39,"reasons":["conf:0","stale_co","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-09-25T05:45:01Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/accelerant-agentic-mga-forward-deployed-underwriter","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/accelerant-agentic-mga-forward-deployed-underwriter.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-09-26T04:30:12Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","usage":{"tier":"crawler","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":4873,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":127,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-09-27T00:00:00Z"}}}
