Principal 3D Artist

Assured is on a mission to modernize insurance. Claims processing (i.e. should we pay this claim) while often overlooked is the foundation of the entire industry. Its currently highly manual involving phone calls faxes and gut instinct costing tens of billions of dollars a year. We can do better.

At Assured we provide large insurers with the software solutions they need to win in a modern technology-driven world. From self-service claim-filing software to backend fraud detection were the engine that powers claims processing for some of the largest insurers in the world.

The challenges we face are deep and diverse from creating digital experiences that provide comfort and clarity to claimants at their most stressed and vulnerable to orchestrating large-scale ML-driven decision-making on billions of dollars of claims payments life at Assured is dynamic collaborative and rewarding.
