  Develop and enhance pricing methodologies by incorporating loss trends, expense assumptions, reinsurance costs, and catastrophe modeling outputs.

• →

  Reconcile actuarial indications with financial performance and business objectives in partnership with actuarial leadership.

• →

  Prepare actuarial support for rate filings, including exhibits, documentation, and responses to regulatory inquiries.

• →

  Partner with insurance product teams to support rate changes, pricing reviews, and state expansion initiatives.

• →

  Lead class plan builds and pricing support for new state launches and product expansions.

• →

  Pull, clean, and validate data for CAT modeling; run catastrophe models and analyze results to inform ratemaking decisions.

  Collaborate with technology and data teams to improve data quality, automate analyses, and modernize pricing pipelines.

• →

  Monitor regulatory developments, market trends, catastrophe activity, and structural changes that impact pricing strategy.

We don’t just hire for skills. We hire for alignment. Kinfolk bring diverse perspectives, but we’re united by a shared set of values that shape how we work and how we show up for each other and our customers.

Run through walls, together - Every one of us is responsible for creating the culture we want to work in. High performance. Low drama. Always respectful. We assume the best in each other and challenge ideas, not intentions. We show up, work hard, and play to each other's strengths — because that’s how great teams win.

Raise the bar. Drop the ego - Attitudes are contagious. Every one of us is responsible for creating the culture we want to work in. High performance. Low drama. Always respectful. Like professional sports teams, we win by working in sync. We show up, work hard, and play to each other’s strengths.

Act like an owner - We are owners, fully accountable for achieving Kin’s mission. That requires positive, proactive, big-picture thinking well beyond our job descriptions. Ask questions, Take ownership. Do the right thing, even when it‘s hard. Because when Kin thrives, so do you. And so do our customers.

Operate lean. Deliver more - We build efficiency into everything we do. Each dollar we save gets reinvested to deliver more to our customers: better pricing, more products, and new innovations. We work smarter by relentlessly prioritizing and using technology, including AI, to multiply our impact. Lean is about focus, not deprivation. Lean isn't a limitation — it's our competitive advantage.

Keep asking ‘What if?’ - We value curiosity. To make insurance better for our customers, we experiment. We embrace insights. And we base decisions on data rather than assumptions. We see setbacks as opportunities for growth and are always learning and improving. Both individually and as a company.
