Full job description
Build the engine of economic ambition at Mandl. Commercial insurance is the quiet force that lets ambition outrun risk, but the outdated and generic system it’s built on is failing our modern economy.
Mandl is an AI company fixing that by rebuilding the engine of commercial insurance from the inside out. In doing so, we’re advancing economic ambition and abundance.
Our roots are in building successful solutions to enormous, unglamorous problems that affect the macroeconomy. Before founding Mandl, our CEO Rushil Goel built Samsara’s (NYSE: IOT) fleet business to more than $500 million in revenue. He then founded Nirvana, a Mandl company, with one of the country’s top actuarial scientists, which has now grown to more than $300 million in run-rate premium with top-tier loss ratios. Vega, our AI-native claims administrator, already resolves claims four times faster than the industry standard. And Cooper, the AI operations platform we built on first principles for the insurance industry, turns 12 to 15 hours of broker work into about ten minutes.
At Mandl, we hire builders who want to create that same kind of impact and scale. If that sounds like you, we’d love to talk.
Mandl is backed by General Catalyst, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Valor Equity Partners and others, with $300M+ raised. We’re headquartered in San Francisco.
The Role You will work closely with our leadership teams to solve the most important problems and drive results as we scale. The role demands speed and depth together: getting into the detail of a problem quickly, aligning on the answer, and owning execution until the result shows up in the numbers. No two weeks will look the same. You might be building a framework to evaluate a new market opportunity one week and redesigning a customer-facing process the next. You're someone who identifies the problem, defines the approach, and gets moving.
What You’ll Do
-
Own high-priority, cross-functional initiatives end-to-end, from scoping and analysis through execution and measurement
-
Partner with executive leaders to define and prioritize the most critical strategic questions facing the business
-
Conduct quantitative and qualitative analyses like market sizing, competitive landscape, unit economics, and turn findings into clear, actionable recommendations
-
Identify operational bottlenecks and design process improvements that drive efficiency and margin across the business
-
Develop and maintain critical operating metrics and reporting cadences, communicating insights to senior stakeholders in a clear, compelling way
Who We're Looking For
-
At least 2–5 years of experience in management consulting, investment banking, private equity, and/or BizOps at a high-growth technology company
-
You prioritize speed and action, above all else
-
You thrive in ambiguity - you don’t need a perfect brief to get started
-
You’ve proven the ability to drive complex, cross-functional projects from start to finish
-
You are analytical, a structured problem solver, and comfortable with financial modeling, data analysis, and building clear, actionable narratives from numbers
-
Collaborative and “no ego” - you build trust quickly and lead through influence
-
Owner mentality - you take accountability for outcomes, not just outputs
-
Comfortable toggling between strategy and execution: happy to design the framework one day and configure the system yourself the next
-
Strong communication skills, both written & verbal
-
You love AI and it is integral to how you do your work day to day
Benefits
-
Competitive salary & equity
-
Medical, dental & vision insurance (100% employer paid)
-
401k with up to 4% company match
-
Unlimited PTO
-
Wellness reimbursement
