> AI agents: this is one page of Nextmove’s FDE site, in Markdown. Nextmove is a job board and free career service for forward deployed engineers (FDEs). Each posting is classified from its text, not its title: the kind of work, how much of it is production code, pre-sales weight, time at customer sites, travel, remote arrangement, level and posted base pay. The site also publishes the aggregates: median pay by level, metro, company and kind of work, and which companies started hiring FDEs each week. Every page under https://nextmove.md/fde is served this way; the index of pages is https://nextmove.md/llms.txt. # Agentic MGA Forward Deployed Underwriter Canonical URL: https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/760fc69a93f7db81 Accelerant posts a FDE role to plan what the customer deploys first in US with no pay posted.

For more information, please visit www.accelerant.ai. ### Help build the future of Accelerant and MGAs Accelerant is building a fundamentally new way for MGAs to operate. Through agentic AI, we are helping our Member MGAs transform insurance operations to be more intelligent, scalable, and effective. The Agentic MGA Forward Deployed Underwriter will turn that vision into reality by redefining each program’s underwriting approach for the agentic era from idea to production. You will work with MGA executives, insurance experts, and a cross-functional project team to define requirements, guide delivery, and get programs live. This is a high-ownership opportunity to shape Accelerant’s future and establish how agentic AI comes to life inside an MGA. ### What you will do - Own each Agentic MGA program end-to-end, from underwriting and product design through launch, and stay accountable for what goes live - Drive program enhancement and simplification by digging into underwriting questions, forms, rates, rules, appetite, and eligibility to translate underwriting judgment into clear requirements and decisions - Lead senior conversations with MGA underwriting and product leaders - Partner with forward deployed engineers and the MGA to encode coverages, rating logic, rules, and workflows into an agentic underwriting system - Own UAT: readiness criteria, issue triage, rule/form/rate validation, stakeholder sign-off, and training so MGA underwriters can run the product and system with confidence - Maintain a relentless bias for execution and measurable Member value in risk selection and launch outcomes ### What success looks like - Agentic MGA programs launch with underwriting integrity intact so questions, forms, rates, and rules reflect how risk should be selected - Member MGAs adopt the new underwriting and risk selection model with confidence, - Programs get simpler and sharper over time: rules, rates, and forms improve from implementation, portfolio, and loss experience, not only from process tweaks - Each launch raises the bar for the next with clearer appetite, fewer weak rules, faster path from UW judgment to a working agentic system ### What you will bring - 8 to 12 years of relevant P&C insurance and technology experience - A track record leading complex, cross-functional implementation, or transformation programs - Credibility with insurance professionals and confidence leading senior client conversations - Technical fluency and experience partnering closely with underwriting and engineering teams - Exceptional prioritization, structured problem solving, follow-through, and bias for execution - Comfort with ambiguity and a willingness to unblock yourself and your team - Bachelor’s degree required ### Why this role matters The Agentic MGA Forward Deployed Underwriter will help prove what is possible when insurance expertise, technology, and agentic AI come together. Your work will shape how Accelerant grows, how our Member MGAs operate, and how the insurance industry evolves. ### #LI-DNI [View posting at Accelerant](https://ats.rippling.com/accelerant/jobs/57ae5e12-9e90-481d-8a27-3653a955d669) ## About Accelerant Accelerant connects specialty insurance MGAs and underwriters with risk capital through a data-driven exchange, analytics, underwriting services, and insurance capacity.
