Job Description

Remote with travel to Austin, TX | Contract-to-Hire

Simplify rebuilding from claim to completion.

We’re building the fastest, simplest way to deploy capital for property restoration after disaster by fixing how money flows through insurance claims. Backed by a bank and family office, Captain has working software, demonstrated demand, and a clear thesis. Now we need an entrepreneurial operator to bring it to life.

Where We’ve Been

  • Built software that pays contractors upfront while we manage insurance reimbursement
  • Secured committed capital from institutional partners
  • Proven contractor demand with 300+ on a waitlist across 50 states

Where We Are 

  • Regulatory shifts in our launch market require a strategic pivot
  • Relaunching to test product-market fit in a pilot

Where We’re Going

  • Close the gap between disaster and recovery by accelerating capital flow
  • Make disaster zones investable through trust, speed, and repeatability
  • Become the go-to platform for deploying billions in recovery funding

Where You Come In

You’ll design and launch a lean proof-of-concept pilot to demonstrate real impact, build relationships with institutional partners to secure a launch customer, and translate key learnings into systems and capital structures built to scale with confidence.

Requirements

  • Have 5–10+ years building in fintech, govtech, or complex service environments
  • Have worked with banks, public agencies, or institutional capital partners
  • Understand capital flow, compliance, and timing mismatches
  • Have worked with banks, public agencies, or institutional capital partners
  • Bring a founder’s mindset and thrive in ambiguity
  • Have experience in regulated, trust-driven markets—like disaster recovery or restoration

Benefits

  • Lead a company with a bold vision for economic and social impact.
  • Enjoy a leadership role with high autonomy, significant upside potential, and the ability to make a lasting impact.
  • And, of course, competitive compensation package including salary, benefits, and equity. Commensurate with experience.
