Founding Engineer

About EventualEventual is a well-funded, seed-stage fintech startup on a mission to improve American housing unaffordability. We're starting with a narrow but high-impact niche: insurance. With insurance prices up dramatically over the last five years, home insurance represents a new corner of housing ripe for innovation. Eventual tackles insurance unaffordability by building the world's most accurate AI insurance prediction models, trained on tens of millions of US homes insurance policy renewals. This prediction model enables us to offer a 3-year price guarantee for home insurance; we simply reimburse homeowners if their insurance gets too expensive in the future. Homeowners are finding immense value from this multi-year predictability, with customers in 37 US states and thousands of distributors (insurance agents) today.
