Job Description
About Aptura
Aptura works with leading foundational AI labs to bring institutional finance expertise directly into AI model development. Founded by ex-Lazard and Partners Group professionals, we operate from London and San Francisco.
The Opportunity
You’ve built deep expertise in actuarial analysis, pricing, reserving, or portfolio profitability, and produced work that drives real business decisions. Now that expertise has a new application: shaping how frontier AI models reason through complex insurance problems.
What you'll do
Design realistic actuarial and pricing tasks: rate adequacy studies, reserve reviews, profitability analyses, and pricing decisions without clean answers.
Write evaluation rubrics that reflect how experienced actuaries reason through assumptions, methodologies, uncertainty, and business impact.
Review AI-generated pricing models, reserve analyses, loss ratio studies, and profitability assessments, identifying where models make incorrect assumptions or apply inappropriate methodologies.
Build reference actuarial analyses and benchmark pricing materials that set the standard models, which are tested.
Communicate actuarial judgments, assumptions, and rationale clearly in writing.
How Engagements Work
Fully remote, part-time, and flexible. Work is scoped by project and ranges from short engagements to ongoing collaborations, structured as a contract or a monthly retainer.
You May Be A Good Fit If:
5–8+ years in P&C actuarial pricing, reserving, or portfolio analytics at an insurer, reinsurer, consultancy, or brokerage.
You’ve owned pricing studies, reserve reviews, or profitability analyses that informed business decisions.
ACAS, FCAS, FIA, Fellow of the IFoA, or equivalent (preferred, not required).
You can explain the assumptions and judgment behind an actuarial estimate clearly enough to teach the reasoning, not just the outcome.
Compensation
$80–$200 per hour, aligned with expertise, scope, and impact; exceptional or highly specialised expertise can go higher. Ongoing engagements are typically structured as a monthly retainer rather than on an hourly basis.
