We partner with hundreds of high-growth, category-defining companies across commercial construction, advanced manufacturing, and complex infrastructure. Our construction clients include general contractors, specialty subcontractors, owners, and developers who operate in high-exposure environments and need a brokerage partner that can move at their speed. Instead of a fragmented, manual brokerage stack, we have built a new category: elite risk advisors operating on top of proprietary technology. Our in-house Agency Management System gives our team and AI agents full visibility into policies, exposures, claims, billing, and commissions — enabling deeper automation, better decisions, and a fundamentally higher standard of service. WithCoverage was founded by JD Ross (co-founder of Opendoor) and Max Brenner (Bain, Compound). We have raised over $43M from leading investors including Sequoia, 8VC, Khosla Ventures, and Crystal Venture Partners. Our ambition is not to build a better brokerage. It is to redefine how risk is managed across the economy. Why Join Us Grow Faster — We’re scaling quickly, giving you significant opportunities to learn, lead, and shape your career and the company’s future. Work That Matters — We protect the built environment: general contractors, specialty trades, developers, and infrastructure owners operating in complex risk environments. Redefine an Industry — Construction insurance is one of the largest, most underserved segments in commercial lines. We rewrite the playbook with proprietary technology, automation, and AI. Financial Rewards — We hire the best and invest in you. That means competitive comp, meaningful equity, and excellent benefits. We believe strongly in internal promotion and lay out a plan for everyone’s career growth.
