Job Description

About Kalepa:

Insurance is a $7T global industry built on professional labor: underwriting claims pricing operations and distribution.

Kalepa is building AI that can perform that work.

We create professional-grade AI systems for insurers: software that can read reason decide and act inside real workflows and operate over long-time horizons.

Kalepa begins by augmenting professionals with the tools to succeed at their jobs.

That earns us the right to learn from real decisions capture decision traces and automate what can be automated successfully over time.

Our products are already in production with leading insurers driving measurable outcomes and expanding across functions.

The opportunity is far broader than any single workflow: to build the AI operating system for decision-making across insurance.

For people who want to work on AI that matters in a sector where correctness trust and real-world impact count Kalepa is just getting started.

Kalepa is backed by leading investors such as IA Ventures and Inspired Capital and our team brings experience from Facebook Palantir Google Amazon McKinsey Mastercard and Uber.

Our Values (This is important):

Many organizations have a dusty list of corporate values that no one ever follows.

Kalepa is not one of those companies.

Our values are designed to unlock the potential of our employees. 

Success at Kalepa is bred from five core principles:

  • Hustle and Determination - We hire people who take full ownership of their craft and relentlessly pursue excellence with speed and determination.

    We choose the hard problems and do not give up.

    This is the foundation of how we work and how we win.

  • Deliver Customer Impact - We're obsessed with customer impact.

    Every feature every line of code every decision is measured against one question: does this help insurers make better decisions?

    If it doesn't drive speed accuracy or profitability for our customers we don't build it.

  • Meritocracy - We're building something exceptional and that requires exceptional people and ideas.

    We have a high bar but we reward excellence with rapid growth.

    If you're the best at what you do you'll thrive here.

  • Transparency - We value honest transparent communication over politics.

    We challenge ideas not people.

    We say what needs to be said even when it's hard.

    This is how we solve problems fast and find the truth.

  • Experiment Relentlessly - Many of the problems we face have never been solved before.

    We tackle them by testing quickly measuring rigorously and iterating until we find the path forward.

    Speed of learning is our advantage.

In addition to our NY office we have remote employees speaking 10+ languages across the globe.

But we invest in bringing our people together both for regional meetups and global offsites (2021 - Playa Del Carmen | 2022 - Rome | 2023 - Buenos Aires | 2024 - Lisbon | 2025 - Cartagena).

But for the people who are a fit they can’t imagine working elsewhere.
