We’re growing fast and looking for teammates who want to help transform health insurance for the better.

SUMMARY

We are seeking an Actuary to own the pricing of Curative’s ASO (self-funded) product line, with primary focus on employer stop loss pricing - both specific (individual) and aggregate. Stop loss is sold exclusively bundled with Curative’s ASO/self-funded plan, so this role sits at the center of how the self-funded block is quoted, renewed, reserved, and reported. You will own the actuarial mechanics end to end: manual and experience rating, credibility, trend, risk load and retention build-up, attachment-point and corridor structures, monthly IBNP valuation of the stop loss layer, and the state rate filings that support the product. This is a highly visible role that pairs technical actuarial ownership with direct matrix relationships across Underwriting, Sales, Account Management, Finance, and Operations, and with state regulators. You will collaborate closely with these teams to help drive Curative’s growth and profitability as the ASO block expands into new states.
