Salary: Top of market salary + equity

Steadily is redefining landlord insurance. We are the market leader in tech-enabled coverage for real estate investors and we are bringing catastrophe risk modeling fully in house. This is not a maintenance role. This is a build-it role.

At Steadily, pricing sophistication is not theoretical; if you can dream it, we can build it. We own our stack, move quickly, and invest in analytics that directly shape the portfolio. When you join us, you will own catastrophe exposure end-to-end; transforming raw data, stochastic outputs, and climate signals into sharp, actionable intelligence that protects the balance sheet and drives strategy.

You will not be reporting on risk. You will be defining it.

This is a full-time position, either in-office or fully remote . A generous relocation package is available for out-of-state candidates.

What You’ll Do

• Own Steadily’s catastrophe modeling cycle ; deliver monthly high-fidelity loss estimates that directly inform pricing, capital planning, and growth strategy.

• Detect and manage accumulation risk ; identify geographic and peril “hot spots” and provide real-time diversification recommendations.

• Lead during live CAT events ; produce rapid loss assessments and brief leadership with clear, data-driven updates as events unfold.

• Shape and validate reinsurance strategy ; partner with Actuarial to design structures that mitigate tail risk while optimizing portfolio efficiency.

• Integrate climate intelligence ; embed climate change analytics and non-modeled perils such as wildfire and convective storm into our long-term risk framework.

• Build Steadily’s proprietary View of Risk ; define the methodology, governance, and outputs that guide underwriting and portfolio decisions.

• Continuously elevate pricing sophistication ; translate stochastic modeling, external data, and new analytics into sharper underwriting insight.

What We're Looking For

• Required

  • 5+ years of catastrophe modeling experience or risk management

  • Expertise with third-party catastrophe models (RMS, AIR, etc)

  • Expert level knowledge of natural weather perils

  • Strong technical, analytical, and communication skills — both written and verbal — with ability to engage stakeholders, regulators, and leadership

  Preferred

  • You’re excited about combining your experience with best in class technology to develop new ways of identifying risk.

  • Experience with SQL, Python, R, or geospatial tools

  • Certified Catastrophe Risk Analyst (CCRA), Certified Specialist in Catastrophe Risk (CSCR), or Certified Catastrophe Risk Management Professional (CCRMP)
