About Stand

Stand is a new technology and insurance company revolutionizing how society assesses, mitigates, and adapts to climate risks. Our leadership team has extensive experience in insurance, technology, and climate science: building billions in market value at prior ventures. At Stand, we are rethinking how insurance enables proactive, science-driven resilience.

Existing insurance models often rely on broad exclusions, leaving homeowners without options. At Stand, we leverage advanced deterministic models and cutting-edge analytics to provide personalized risk assessments—helping homeowners secure coverage and take proactive steps toward resilience.

Role Summary:

As a Mitigation Specialist, you are a trusted protection advocate for Stand’s customers. You help homeowners and brokers understand how to meaningfully protect homes by guiding them through Stand’s mitigation process—from early discovery conversations through work execution after a policy begins. This includes hardening homes and landscapes against wildfire, water leaks, and other risks.

You translate complex risk, mitigation, and underwriting inputs into clear, practical next steps, helping customers understand not only what needs to be done, but why it matters for the long-term safety and resilience of their home. The role sits at the intersection of customer experience, risk, and sales, and plays a critical part in shaping how customers perceive value, urgency, and protection.

Your Responsibilities Will Include:

  • Acting as a primary mitigation guide for homeowners and brokers, supporting them from initial discovery through mitigation execution

  • Translating complex risk, underwriting, and mitigation inputs into clear, actionable recommendations

  • Helping customers understand tradeoffs, priorities, and timelines while reframing mitigation from a requirement into a compelling protection opportunity

  • Working directly with sophisticated homeowners and senior brokers, often in high-stakes or time-sensitive situations

  • Maintaining exceptional attention to detail across multiple active workflows, ensuring clear handoffs and strong follow-through

  • Partnering closely with Construction Solutions, Underwriting, and Risk Management teams to keep mitigation work moving smoothly

  • Preventing confusion or drop-off by proactively identifying gaps, risks, or delays in the mitigation process

  • Helping turn evolving mitigation workflows into a clear, repeatable customer experience that can scale

What We Are Looking For:

  • A customer-focused professional who builds trust through clarity, judgment, and calm communication

  • Someone comfortable guiding customers from uncertainty to action, especially around non-obvious or long-term value

  • A strong owner who takes initiative, anticipates needs, and moves work forward without waiting for perfect direction

  • A clear communicator who can explain technical or complex concepts in plain English

  • A detail-oriented operator who reliably manages multiple concurrent workflows

  • A consultative mindset with the ability to influence outcomes without pressure or hard selling

Qualifications

Must-Haves:

  • Proven experience in a customer-facing, consultative role requiring trust, clarity, and sound judgment

  • Demonstrated experience working with senior, high-expectation, or high-net-worth clients

  • Strong attention to detail with consistent follow-through across multiple workflows

  • Ability to translate complex or technical information into clear, practical guidance

  • Comfort influencing decisions and driving action around long-term or preventative value

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills

  • High ownership mindset with a track record of accountability and follow-through

Nice-to-Haves:

  • Experience in insurance, underwriting support, risk, real estate, construction, or another regulated industry

  • Familiarity with home construction, inspections, defensible space, or mitigation concepts

  • Experience interpreting reports, assessments, or technical documentation and translating them into action

  • Background working with brokers, advisors, or other professional intermediaries

  • Experience helping teams evolve ad hoc processes into cleaner, repeatable workflows

    Compensation:

    The annual base salary range for full-time employees in this position is $125,000 to $160,000 + meaningful Equity Grant.

    Compensation decisions are dependent on several factors including, but not limited to, an individual’s qualifications, location where the role is to be performed, internal equity, and alignment with market data.

    Additional Benefits:

    • Comprehensive benefits including above-market Health, Dental, Vision

    • Weekly lunch stipend

    • Flexible time off

    • 401k plan
