About Vouch:

At Vouch, we believe business insurance should move at the speed of innovation. Legacy insurance providers can’t keep up with the emerging risks of high-growth companies, leaving clients stuck with outdated, rigid coverage.

Vouch is a modern insurance provider dedicated to the innovation economy. Backed by $185M in funding from world-class investors, we’re reimagining business insurance—just as Stripe transformed payments and Brex reimagined credit cards.

Our platform replaces complex, legacy processes with a streamlined, tailored approach to risk management. Advanced technology simplifies every step, while expert advisors negotiate coverage as dynamic as the industries we serve. With Vouch, clients get the right coverage at the right price—and a team that scales with them.

 

Why should you join our team and Vouch?

Not only is this an exciting and growing team where you can drive a real impact on our scalability, but Vouch is also the preferred insurance provider to customers of Y Combinator, Brex, Carta, and WeWork. We’re a quickly growing startup that believes in transparency and acknowledgment with our team members and cultivating a values-driven company. Our values are “Put People First,” “Listen, Challenge, and Grow,” “Face challenges head-on and win as a team,” and “Serve clients with integrity and excellence.”
