Aaci Group

AACI Group, Inc. is dedicated to making insurance more accessible and affordable in catastrophe-prone regions. Climate change is increasing the frequency and severity of wildfires and other natural disasters, while carriers are retreating from high-risk markets. Homeowners are being left with fewer and more expensive options. We are addressing this challenge by building AI-native insurance and loss prevention solutions.

We're looking for a Chief Operating Officer (COO) to own and grow the entire Loss Prevention Solutions (LPS) portfolio. This is a general manager role with real P&L responsibility, a startup-within-a-startup mandate, and the autonomy to build, acquire, or partner your way forward. If you've ever wanted to run a portfolio of mission-aligned products without starting from zero, this is it.

You'll take ownership of a suite of live and in-development loss prevention products:

• FireFoil: aluminum-based wildfire structure wrap; think full building fire blankets: ready to scale

• Wildfire Action Plan: AI-powered personalized wildfire preparedness app

• Defensible Space Score: property-level wildfire defensibility rating tool

• WiserBuild: building plan and materials assessment for insurance readiness

Each product is recognized as a standalone business and represents a piece of a larger connected ecosystem. Your job is to accelerate the growth for each of these while working to develop new and durable additions to the portfolio that contribute to our mission.

• Own Product + Growth

  • Set vision and strategy for each LPS product

  • Prioritize roadmaps and UX improvements -- use AI to iterate quickly

  • Drive engagement and revenue across the portfolio

  • Engage with other AACI subsidiaries to cross-sell and co-market

• Build and Lead the Team

  • Recruit and manage MBA and undergraduate interns to own growth and/or UX for each brand

  • Operate a venture-studio-style model -- bring in hungry operators, give them a product, hold them accountable

  • Act as hiring manager and mentor for intern-level product leads across LPS brands

• Expand the Portfolio

  • Develop new LPS concepts from scratch and/or identify acquisition opportunities and execute on acquiring them

  • Evaluate and integrate that fit the AACI loss prevention thesis

• A builder with operator instincts: You've run something, launched something, or been close enough to the action that you know what it takes

• Search fund and/or founder energy: You're drawn to acquiring or inheriting a portfolio and turning it into something bigger

• Comfort with ambiguity: Not everything is defined yet, and that excites you

• Wildfire, climate, or insurance knowledge is a bonus: Intellectual curiosity about the space is required

• Experience managing interns or early-career talent and getting real output from them

• Willing to pursue the NFPA CWMS certification within the first 90 days

• The blog post The “I”s of an Owner resonates with you and you professionally exhibit intensity, intuition, initiative and imagination

• Based in either Greater Boston, MA, or Greater San Francisco Bay Area, CA.

• Reports directly to the CEO of AACI Group, Inc.

This is an opportunity to join a well-funded, early-stage startup and drive the creation of insurance and resilience products that directly address the climate crisis and help families remain in their homes.
