Underwriting Program Jobs in Texas (NOW HIRING)

About Futuristic Underwriters

Futuristic Underwriters is a growth-focused Managing General Agent building disciplined, industry-specific underwriting capabilities nationwide. We currently write small and middle-market business on an E&S basis, with admitted products under development.

Our platform spans multiple underwriting programs, coverages, and industry verticals, including hospitality, real estate, construction, and retail/service risks. We are actively investing in underwriting tools, automation, and operational infrastructure to improve execution, consistency, and scalability.

The Position

This role sits at the center of underwriting operations and is responsible for both keeping workflows running and building better ways to run them.

You will operate in a fast-growing, evolving environment where many processes are still being defined or refined. This is not a passive role. You are expected to identify gaps, challenge inefficiencies, and drive improvements without waiting for fully defined direction.

You will work across underwriting, operations, IT, and product teams to reduce manual work, improve consistency, and implement scalable processes and tools.

Success in this role requires strong insurance knowledge, comfort with ambiguity, and the ability to turn loosely defined problems into structured, actionable solutions.
