Online small-business insurance platform serving 750K+ policyholders across 1,300+ professions
Next Insurance underwrites and distributes small-business insurance through a digital-first model, currently serving over 750,000 policyholders. The tech stack reflects an operations-and-data-intensive business: heavy ERP (SAP, NetSuite), automation (UiPath RPA), and BI tooling (Tableau, Anaplan), alongside core underwriting systems (Xactimate, Epic). Engineering-heavy hiring (14 of 35 active roles) paired with active projects around LLM-based workflows and financial forecasting centers-of-excellence signals a shift toward automation and AI-driven underwriting and claims.

With 501–1,000 employees based primarily in Palo Alto, California, the organization is scaling operations and technology infrastructure to handle claims volume, financial modeling complexity, and margin pressures inherent to the small-business insurance segment.
