Pie Insurance is an insurtech company tackling meaningful problems. At Pie, we work with small businesses using technology and innovation to improve how they access insurance. Like our small business clients, we are a diverse team of builders, dreamers, and entrepreneurs. So, at the heart of every decision we make is the idea that if it doesn’t serve our clients, it doesn’t serve us. 


Today, all Pie-oneers are working remotely and will continue to do so until it is safe to return to the office. As a remote team member, you will be expected to be available for meetings with team members in other time zones and have access to reliable, high-speed internet.


This role will work in our Denver or DC office once our office re-opens. However, we will consider this role for continued remote work in the United States once our offices reopen with up to 10% travel to Denver and/or DC.

  • Leverage workers’ compensation underwriting expertise to assess risks to underwrite coverage.
  • Maintain strong industry knowledge on WC underwriting expertise and changes in market/account positions. Develop and maintain full knowledge of all forms, coverages, ratings, and manuals for the specific line being underwritten.
  • Quickly and effectively decision requests through the use of Pie’s underwriting guidelines and known risk exposures and loss frequency and severity.
